Annette Martinez

My communication style

My communication style is honest, compassionate, and collaborative. I listen closely for patterns and themes in what clients share, helping them gain insight into the challenges they face. While I create a supportive and nonjudgmental space, I also believe in offering gentle but direct challenges when clients are ready to do deeper work.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist has been shaped by a genuine passion for supporting people through life's challenges. These experiences deepened my dedication to working with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, and life transitions.

My goals for you

I help clients reach their goals by creating an open, supportive space where we can clarify what feels most important to them. Together, we define priorities and break them down into achievable steps so progress feels meaningful and manageable. I provide tools that clients can use both in and outside of sessions.

Our first session

During our first session, we'll review practice policies and confidentiality so you feel informed about how therapy works. I'll get to understand your intentions for therapy, your current experiences, and what you hope to achieve. This is a chance to explore your goals, ask questions, and begin establishing a plan.
