About Martin

Martin Danner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Texas with nine years of clinical experience. He lists work with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and other life challenges.

Martin uses straightforward, solution-focused methods in session. He combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques and emotionally focused work to help people clarify goals and try practical changes. He also draws on the Gottman Method, Imago relationship ideas, narrative approaches, and selected psychodynamic perspectives when useful.

Sessions are aimed at helping individuals manage day-to-day strain and improve important relationships. He talks through communication patterns, attachment concerns, control issues, and family of origin problems. He can support people dealing with separation, workplace stress, identity and LGBT issues, and the fatigue that comes from caregiving or emotionally demanding roles.

Martin describes his style as encouraging and goal-oriented. He works with people to identify small, achievable steps and to track what helps. He also uses tools such as the Enneagram (IEQ9 level 1 practitioner) when that fits a client's interests.

Clients typically find the work practical and focused on change rather than long lectures. To begin, a short matching process is used and then a first session is scheduled. The subscription-based payment model is used for sessions and can be canceled at any time.

Background and approach information is rooted in nearly a decade of practice in Texas and a foundation that includes training in solution-focused brief therapy received in London. He offers services in English and does not take international clients.

How sessions work

How Martin's approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. Online sessions can use this style to clarify goals and what feels most important in daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, behaviors, and practical experiments to change patterns that cause distress. CBT online often involves homework, brief skills practice, and tracking progress between meetings. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on identifying and shifting emotional responses that affect relationships. In remote sessions, EFT techniques can help name feelings, practice new interactions, and rehearse different ways of connecting.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk through options, try methods suited to the issue, and adjust based on what helps. Clients and therapist work together to pick tools and pace that fit goals and preferences.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make scheduling easier around home and work obligations, shorten commute time, and allow quick check-ins when a brief review is needed. It can also let someone use audio-only at times with lower bandwidth or choose video for deeper interpersonal work. Ask about the available formats when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule the first session.
