Tanika Martinez

Hello! I am Tanika Martinez, a licensed psychotherapist with over 12 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges. My goal is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions and begin your healing journey.

I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties. Whether you’re struggling with stress at work, feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands, or dealing with a past experience that is still affecting you, I am here to help you move forward with greater peace and understanding. I have been seeing clients for 20 years and started my own practice 5 years ago, when our world was in crisis and I wanted to help those who were isolated and seeking support and validation. I am a good listener and like to help clients discover their own strengths to help them overcome obstacles that they are facing.

I have a master's degree in social work and have been a licensed clinical social worker for 10 years. I have received specialized training in cultural competency, CBT, and Trauma Informed Care. I have experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, older adults, and parenting individuals. I have strong background working with women with trauma backgrounds and provide individual, group, and couples counseling.

I like to help my clients develop concrete skills to help them with the problems they are facing. I enjoy sharing resources and psychoeducational materials to aid in the therapeutic process. I am very empathetic and emphasize the need for client's self care and compassion as they navigate challenging situations.
