Angelica Martinez (She/Her)

Licensed Social Worker

Life can sometimes feel overwhelming—moments catch us off guard, move too fast, or leave us feeling stuck. During those times, we often develop coping mechanisms just to feel safe, which is completely natural. But eventually, those same tools can start to feel limiting, leaving us feeling unseen, unheard, or unsure of how to move forward.

 

I aim to create a space where healing feels possible and sustainable. Whether you're looking for support for yourself or your child, I’m here to walk alongside you—gently challenging when necessary, always focusing on building resilience and self-awareness.

All About Me

I invite you into a therapy space that prioritizes patience, compassion, and collaboration. I specialize in working with individuals of all ages—especially children and teens—who are navigating challenges like trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, self-harm, school-related stress, and impulse control difficulties. I also have a strong background in supporting families through difficult transitions and helping them find new ways to communicate and connect.

​

In our sessions, I’ll meet you exactly where you are, bringing empathy, honesty, and encouragement—along with a touch of humor when it’s needed. I believe that therapy is a journey we take together, one where your voice matters, your experiences are respected, and your goals guide the process. My approach integrates trauma-informed care with evidence-based practices like CBT, mindfulness, play therapy, and narrative work, all within a warm, nonjudgmental environment.

​

Outside of the therapy room, I love spending time with my family and being outdoors. Nature helps me stay grounded and present, and I try to bring that same calm and presence into the work I do with my clients.

​

If you’re ready to begin the next step in your journey, I’m here—and I’d be honored to support you every step of the way.
