Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Marti. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy should feel like a relief, not another task. My approach is warm, open-minded and solution-focused, helping you understand what's overwhelming you and what's getting in the way of feeling like yourself.

We'll move at a pace that feels safe while building clarity, emotional regulation and practical strategies you can use in real life. You don't have to carry everything alone. Support is here.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, warm and solution-focused. I help clients build awareness, strengthen emotional regulation and develop practical strategies they can use in everyday life.

We'll explore patterns, clarify what's working and what isn't and move at a pace that feels safe and supportive.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a calm, welcoming space to talk about what's been weighing on you. We'll get clear on what you're hoping to shift, what support looks like for you and what goals feel realistic. By the end, you'll have a plan and a sense that you don't have to navigate things alone.
