Welcome! My name is Jeremy Martin and I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I have over eight years of counseling experience working with individuals of all ages and from many different backgrounds. I am a compassionate, empathic therapist, and I would like to create a therapeutic connection with you so you can live a happier, more tranquil, and fulfilling life. I have a strong background and training in treating anxiety, depression, grief, loss, and trauma. I use a person-centered approach based on trust while helping shine light on areas of your life where you need guidance. I use elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), family/systems therapy, and expressive art therapy in my practice. Everyone is welcome to contact me, this is a judgment free zone where I want you to feel safe to be your authentic self. Thank you for reading this, and I hope we can work together!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session together will entail me gathering information from you about what exactly brings you to seek counseling; this is important for me to understand you in a deep and meaningful way. After that, our work is about forming a trusting counseling relationship together, for I believe that the therapeutic relationship between us is one of the most important things to help you move forward and heal, and feel like you can enjoy your life again! Together we CAN make that happen.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I work with clients with a variety of methods, as mentioned above: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Person Centered Therapy. If you have any questions about these approaches please let me know! I also welcome other ways of helping you process your feelings such as drawing, poetry, and sharing music.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My primary strength as a therapist lies in my caring, compassionate presence in helping you move forward with your life. As I mentioned before, developing a trusting relationship between us is very important. I realize this takes time but I am here for you to help guide you along this process.,
