Getting to know Rebeca Brau Martinez

I help people suffering with anxiety, relationship stress, or life transitions. I work from a commitment to understanding your experience in context, not simply managing symptoms. As a licensed marriage and family therapist in New York, I support individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, relational challenges, and life transitions, particularly when long-standing coping strategies no longer feel sustainable. My approach to therapy is warm and systemic. Together, we look beyond symptoms to explore the relationships, cultural contexts, and social pressures shaping your inner world. We gently unpack patterns and reconnect you with your own wisdom and sense of agency, so change feels driven by YOU! Our work is collaborative and paced with care for your nervous system and lived experience. Rather than asking you to “fix” yourself, therapy centers on curiosity, honesty, and relational attunement. Clients often describe the space as warm, thoughtful, and human—with room for humor alongside depth—because meaningful change does not have to feel unbearably heavy to be real. Acompaño a personas que atraviesan ansiedad, estrés en sus relaciones o transiciones de vida. Mi trabajo parte de un compromiso por comprender tu experiencia en contexto, no simplemente manejar síntomas. Como terapeuta familiar, apoyo a individues, parejas y familias que navegan la ansiedad, el trauma, los desafíos relacionales y las transiciones de vida. Mi enfoque terapéutico es cálido y sistémico. Juntos, miramos más allá de los síntomas para explorar las relaciones, los contextos culturales y las presiones sociales que dan forma a tu mundo interior. Desenredamos suavemente los patrones y te reconectamos con tu propia sabiduría y sentido de agencia, para que el cambio se sienta impulsado por TI.

What should a new client know about working with you?

You can expect to feel heard and understood from day one. I help clients build clarity, connection, and steadier emotional ground—both within themselves and in their relationships. Therapy with me is a safe, supportive space to explore concerns related to anxiety, relational challenges, and emotional healing, with your experience always at the center of the work. My approach is warm, nonjudgmental, and conversational. In our sessions, we work collaboratively to deepen insight, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful, sustainable change. I integrate relational therapy, mindfulness practices, and somatic awareness, and when appropriate, I also draw on spiritual or contemplative tools to support healing through the mind–body connection. I am committed to helping you cultivate greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and resilience, so you can move through life with more clarity, connection, and inner steadiness. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish, and my practice is grounded in culturally responsive care for clients across New York State. Yo acompaño a mis clientes a construir claridad, conexión y mayor estabilidad emocional, tanto dentro de sí mismos como en sus relaciones. La terapia conmigo es un espacio de apoyo para explorar preocupaciones, desafíos relacionales y emocionales. Mi enfoque es cálido, sin prejuicios y conversacional. En nuestras sesiones, trabajamos de manera colaborativa para profundizar en la comprensión de uno mismo, fortalecer las relaciones y generar cambios significativos y sostenibles. Integro la terapia relacional, prácticas de mindfulness y conciencia somática, y cuando es apropiado, también incorporo herramientas espirituales o contemplativas para apoyar la sanación a través de la conexión mente-cuerpo. Estoy comprometida a ayudarte a cultivar una mayor autoconciencia, autocompasión y resiliencia, para que puedas atravesar la vida con más claridad, conexión y equilibrio interior.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My process begins with a free phone consultation, where we address your questions, discuss your concerns, and explore whether working together feels like a good fit. I provide online therapy for clients in New York, allowing us to meet conveniently and consistently, typically once per week. The early sessions focus on clarifying your therapy goals, understanding your values, beliefs, relationships, and cultural context, and building a strong therapeutic relationship. I view trust and collaboration as the foundation of effective therapy, and I honor your autonomy as the expert in your own life. My role is to serve as a reflective and supportive partner, offering compassionate guidance while helping you uncover insights, strengthen self-awareness, and access the inner resources and resilience you already possess. Together, we work toward meaningful, sustainable change that supports emotional well-being and healthier relationships. Mi proceso comienza con una consulta telefónica gratuita, donde respondemos tus preguntas, conversamos sobre tus inquietudes y exploramos si trabajar juntos se siente como una buena opción. Ofrezco terapia en línea para clientes en Nueva York, lo que nos permite reunirnos de manera conveniente y constante, generalmente una vez por semana. Las primeras sesiones se centran en clarificar tus objetivos terapéuticos, comprender tus valores, creencias, relaciones y contexto cultural, y construir una sólida relación terapéutica. Considero que la confianza y la colaboración son la base de una terapia efectiva, y honro tu autonomía como el experto en tu propia vida. Mi rol es ser una compañera reflexiva y de apoyo, ofreciendo una guía compasiva mientras te ayudo a descubrir perspectivas, fortalecer la autoconciencia y acceder a los recursos internos y la resiliencia que ya posees. Juntos, trabajamos hacia un cambio significativo y sostenible que favorezca el bienestar emocional y relaciones más saludables.
