About Me
Hey there, I'm Kristen Martin and I'm glad you're here. I specialize in helping adults and teens heal from trauma and painful experiences that continue to affect their relationships, work, sense of safety and internal well being. I'm an EMDRIA certified EMDR therapist which is the main modality I use to treat trauma and attachment wounding. I have also done extensive work treating clients experiencing general anxiety and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and I have more than 10 years of clinical experience.
I provide a compassionate and safe space to do this important work in. Our work may focus on understanding the "why" and the patterns keeping you stuck, building healthier boundaries, developing more effective ways of responding to difficult situations, thoughts and emotions.
I pride myself in showing up authentically and I would not expect you to be vulnerable to someone that feels intimidating. We have fun and work hard. I find that the commonalities I have with my clients allows the therapeutic relationship to thrive. I'm so excited for you to become the person you were always meant to be.
