Bree Martin

Therapist

Virtual • California


Hello! I'm Bree Martin, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #163961) with over eight years of behavioral health experience, including four years as a substance use counselor before becoming an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and now a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

Throughout my career, I've worked with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use concerns, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress, and emotional overwhelm. My background includes substance use treatment, community mental health, and crisis intervention, where I gained extensive experience helping individuals navigate recovery, co-occurring mental health concerns, and some of life's most difficult moments.

I believe therapy should be a safe, judgment-free space where you can show up exactly as you are. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, working toward recovery, processing past experiences, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to help you better understand yourself, develop healthier coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.

Seeking support takes courage, and you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. I'm here to provide a compassionate, collaborative space where healing and growth can happen.
