About Martha

Martha Wilson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and struggles related to addictions. She also addresses parenting concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, sleep problems, and identity matters such as LGBT and gender dysphoria.

Her style centers on listening and practical steps. Sessions focus on what feels most urgent at home or work. She uses straightforward conversation to clarify problems and set small, achievable goals. Clients can expect a mix of reflection and concrete skills aimed at everyday coping.

Martha draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and build different habits. Narrative work helps people separate themselves from hard stories and imagine other possibilities.

In sessions she may use dialectical behavior strategies when emotions feel intense, and client-centered methods to follow a person’s priorities. She supports people navigating adoption and foster care questions, fatherhood issues, first responder stress, veteran concerns, multicultural challenges, and experiences of prejudice and discrimination.

Her approach is practical and conversational. She helps people manage symptoms and try new ways of relating at home. If you want to start, be ready to describe what’s most pressing and what you’d like to change.

How sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions and what they do

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current patterns. It helps people notice how they relate to partners, parents, and others, and try different ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and day-to-day stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, needs, and personal preferences. That means trying approaches, checking what helps, and adjusting as needed rather than following a fixed plan.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and remove travel time. Ask about available session types and length when you schedule to make sure they fit with family and work commitments.
