Prof. Yovanna Martinez, LMHC, LCPC

Prof. Yovanna Martinez helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, depression, or life changes. She is comfortable talking about addiction, trauma, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and work-related burnout. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make the first step easier for people who are nervous about reaching out.

With 25 years of experience, she meets clients where they are and adapts conversations to each person's needs. She frames sessions around what matters most to the client and focuses on practical ways to change day-to-day thoughts and habits. That includes approaches that help with emotion regulation, better sleep, and coping during major life transitions.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people map clear next steps. Sessions often include goal-setting and short exercises to try between meetings so progress can be tracked.

She offers support for a broad set of concerns, including ADHD, compassion fatigue, parenting stress, and challenges related to identity and relationships. People looking for help with grief, abandonment, or substance-related issues will find focused attention on immediate coping and safety.

Clients who prefer speaking in Spanish can work in that language. To begin, the site matching process is used to choose a therapist and schedule sessions based on availability. Prof. Martinez encourages steady, manageable change rather than quick fixes.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's priorities, helping clients feel heard while they decide on steps to try. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful thinking and habits. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention and present-moment awareness to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and stress management.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. She will work with each person to choose or combine methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative planning includes checking progress and adjusting techniques over time.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing meetings from wherever a person is based. Because this profile did not list specific session formats, confirm the available online options before booking. Many people use remote sessions to maintain continuity of care, handle short check-ins during the workday, or continue therapy while traveling.
