Maria Martinova

My communication style

You can expect me to be authentic, engaged, and not afraid to be with you in the challenging moments of your life. I'll celebrate your strengths, help you regulate your nervous system, and gently offer feedback and reflection when it can help you see yourself or your situation in a new way.

My journey to mental healthcare

​​Due to the paradoxical gift that is childhood trauma, I have been a client for many years as well. My healing path has taken me through decades of therapy, working with plan medicines, a deep meditation practice, a better relationship to substances, and culminated with me becoming a licensed psychotherapist myself. This work is worth it.

My goals for you

In a world of quick fixes and bite-sized advice, our work is about becoming the person who naturally creates a satisfying life - not the life you thought would make you happy. Together, we'll identify what matters most to you, track your progress, and build the insight, resilience, and practical skills that create meaningful, lasting change.

Our first session

Think of our first session as the beginning of a conversation, not an interrogation. You will be asked to fill out an intake form, and I'll spend time getting to know you directly—your story, your strengths, and what led you here. Together, we'll begin creating a path forward that feels supportive, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs.
