Getting to know Silvina Martin
Hi there, I'm Silvina!
Hello, my name is Silvina Martin, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist from California, providing individual and couples therapy to adult clients via telehealth in English and Spanish. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University and have over 20 years of experience working with clients dealing with relationship issues (romantic and family), low self-esteem, past trauma, grief and loss, and symptoms of anxiety and depression.
My approach
My approach in therapy sessions is individualized to meet my clients' specific needs and goals. I frequently utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help shift unhealthy thoughts fueling mood symptoms and behaviors, and I use Trauma-Focused interventions to work through past trauma when needed. I also incorporate a strength-based approach to remind my clients that they are more than just their symptoms or difficulties.
My focus
I typically work with adult clients experiencing symptoms of depression or anxiety due to unique stressors, chronic difficulties with partners or family relationships, or past trauma. These stressors may include breakups, cultural and societal pressures, or life transitions. Many of my clients have unresolved trauma that leads to unhealthy coping tools (such as alcohol or substance use), trauma responses (like emotionally shutting down, arguments, or people-pleasing), and mood symptoms. My focus is to provide coping tools, emotional support, psychoeducation, and assistance to help clients begin to feel better and heal.
My communication style
I believe it is essential for my clients to feel comfortable, supported, and safe in therapy. I bring clear communication, respect, empathy, healthy boundaries, and a down-to-earth approach when working with my clients.
