Getting to know Yvonne Martinez

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My therapeutic approach is strength-based, client-centered, and solution-focused, with a collaborative approach sprinkled with some humor. I am no cookie-cutter therapist, and your feedback is important to me, which is why I do my best to meet you on your level. I provide a safe, comfortable environment while guiding and assisting you in identifying triggers, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that impact your daily life. My approach The most common theoretical approaches I utilize are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strength-based, and Solution-Focused. I utilize several modalities as there is no one-size-fits-all. I do my best to find what works for you based on your personality, strengths, and learning style. My focus I have experience in working with clients who have mild to severe Depression/Anxiety symptoms, grief/loss, trauma, Women's issues, relationship issues, work-related issues, life stress, and more. My communication style I provide a safe, comfortable, and respectful environment where my clients are not afraid to be themselves. I embrace and encourage expressing yourself in whichever way is best for you. We will laugh, you may cry, you may be upset and feel the need to raise your voice or yell, and I am totally comfortable with that. I will guide you to learn how to manage emotions and implement coping skills. My goals for you I engage and explore your needs and expectations; since my approach is client-centered, I meet you where you are. You decide what you want to work on. If you need guidance in setting a goal, I will be here to help you figure it out. We will work as a team. My first session with you The first session is typically relaxed, getting to know each other, goal setting, and understanding what is going on for you. This will allow us to build a therapeutic relationship as well as help you settle in to see that I am human and not a textbook therapist.
