Stephanie Martinez

LSW, CGP

Imagine feeling less overwhelmed, more confident, and more in control. Therapy can help you get there, and I'll guide you every step of the way. I'm a Licensed Social Worker with experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults facing anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes, and I am also a Certified Grief Informed Professional (CGP), with additional training to support clients navigating loss.

My approach is laidback yet focused, blending real conversations with evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Play Therapy. I believe therapy works best when it feels genuine, comfortable, and tailored to you, not one-size-fits-all.

I'm inspired by the words of Selena Quintanilla: “All I need to do is try and do the best that I can do.” I bring that mindset to every session, helping clients embrace progress over perfection and build resilience along the way.

If you're ready to take the first step toward feeling better, I invite you to reach out. We can figure it out together.
