Hello! My name is Martha Hurtado-Garcia and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10 years of experience. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, panic disorders, depression, and perinatal mood disorders. My goal is to provide a safe and compassionate space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported as you work toward healing and growth. I am currently pursuing certification in perinatal mental health to deepen my ability to serve parents and families during such an important stage of life. I am also Brainspotting trained and have been incorporating this into my practice regularly. At the heart of my practice is a genuine love for helping others. I strive to meet my clients where they are, empowering them to define their own goals while walking alongside them with compassion and respect. Hablo Español!
In our first session, we’ll take some time to get to know each other and make sure you feel comfortable in the space. We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy and what you hope to get out of it, as well as what you can expect from me along the way. It’s really about starting a conversation, exploring your goals, and making sure we’re on the same page about how we can work together.
My greatest strengths as a therapist are my empathy and the importance I place on building a strong therapeutic relationship. Clients often share that they value how open and honest they can be with me, which helps create a safe and supportive space for meaningful growth and healing.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I used CBT therapy when providing education to client's on the connections between our thoughts, feelings, and behavior. This can be very beneficial when managing anxiety, panic disorders and depression.

My work includes Motivational Interviewing to help client's identify challenges or why they want to make changes as opposed to feeling like they "need to."

As a mom of two little boys who is going through the thick of parenthood I wanted to find a professional who is relatable and makes therapy feel comfortable. Martha is very professional but also made me feel like it was just a conversation with a fellow mom friend which I loved! She’s great and I can’t wait to have another session with her.

This is my second session with her and let me just say I leave feeling better than when I start my session. She has such a welcoming and calming presence. I really do feel like I can open up to her without the fear of being judged for how and what I feel. She's formulates different techniques that are well suited for you to try so you leave with more than one solution. She always iterates that she's there and provides extra support if needed. So glad I found her, definitely going back!
