Hi! I'm Jessica Martinez, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT47972). I am interested in connecting with you on this journey of exploration and healing we call therapy. Change is hard. Asking for help is hard. Transformation is worth it! It is my honor to walk with you to challenge your current narrative, address lingering angst, and develop new ways of being and interacting.
My approach
I have over 15 years of experience working with individuals, families, couples, and groups to navigate and improve Mental Health.

My focus

My communication style
I have a warm, collaborative communication style infused with humor and directness as appropriate. My goal is to provide a judgement-free environment where all thoughts and feelings have space to exist.
My journey to mental healthcare
My journey to becoming a therapist stems from a lifelong intrigue of humans. How we connect and interact with others in various life seasons is fascinating to me. Couple this intrigue with a passion for serving others and the outcome is a working in the Mental Health field and witnessing lives transformed. I look forward to connecting with you.
My goals for you
This is a collaborative approach, driven by your treatment hopes and diagnostic symptoms.
My first session with you
In the first session, I will listen to develop a sense of whom you are while creating space for you to share what has brought you to therapy and the impact of this in your life presently. I will ask questions about your thoughts, feelings, environment, support system, family, and your desired outcome of therapy. I will provide a roadmap of therapy and provide you with an opportunity to ask questions about the therapy process. At the conclusion of this session, we will gather if we might work well together and develop a plan to move forward.
