Jessica Martinez

Hi there, my name is Jessica M. Martinez and I'm not your average talk therapist but I do use talk therapy to help people get out of their heads and into their bodies. I offer solutions whenever appropriate but I believe clients know what is in their best interest. I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) mainly as my theoretical framework. I'm an LCSW of over 10 years. Therefore, you can expect to receive a well rounded understanding of your current situation or life scenario.

My theoretical framework stems from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and I use Mindfulness/Meditation as a way to help people connect to the present moment. My passion for therapy comes from my ability to create an environment that helps clients first establish a deep connection with themselves, use their past to inform the present and identify values that can help guide the future.

After therapy, clients can expect to have a better understand of how to navigate their thoughts and emotions and should be able to make decisions that are in line with their values. They might also have a better sense of how to "talk" to themselves, in a way that is not harmful to the psyche. They should have a better idea of how to find and choose the present moment and lastly, after therapy with me, clients should have an idea of what their body is telling them and how to respond accordingly.
