She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and the effects of trauma and abuse.
She uses a blend of approaches to fit each person's needs, drawing from cognitive behavioral methods, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-focused work, client-centered principles, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. Sessions emphasize practical steps people can try between meetings. The aim is to reduce overwhelming reactions and build steady coping skills.
Dr. Martin-Perkins has a long background in counseling education and supervision, which informs how she organizes care and supports goal setting. She also brings experience with concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, body image, and communication problems.
People who come for help can expect straightforward conversations about what’s most pressing and realistic tasks to practice at home. The clinician prioritizes helping people regain a sense of control after upsetting life events, including coping with natural or human-caused disaster when it affects daily life.
Her practice is conducted in English and is based in Texas. International clients are not currently accepted, and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and managing responses after traumatic events. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and offers concrete strategies to change patterns that increase distress. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it can be useful for relationship strain and attachment issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences. Sessions often mix elements from different approaches so the plan fits what is actually helpful in day-to-day life.
Confirm session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited and let people join from locations with quieter surroundings or less commuting. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to online sessions so people can practice new skills between meetings.
