Dr. Katherine Martin

Dr. Katherine Martin is a licensed psychologist in Texas who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She supports people facing life changes, questions about purpose, and concerns around self-esteem and motivation. Dr. Martin emphasizes a warm, encouraging approach that aims to help clients feel heard and understood.

She combines practical, evidence-minded methods with a relational focus that values strengths and connection. Sessions typically involve clear, doable steps to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors while also naming emotions and patterns that get in the way. That mix helps when someone is rebuilding after a breakup, navigating career changes, or coping with grief and loss.

Her broader practice includes attention to trauma and abuse, caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and issues that come up later in life such as aging and midlife transitions. Dr. Martin also supports people from LGBT communities and veterans with concerns related to adjustment and identity. She tailors work to each person’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

With nine years of professional experience, she aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through difficult decisions and take steps toward change. Her clinical credential is TX Psychologist 38758. People who choose to begin therapy are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

Before booking, confirm current session options and scheduling details so arrangements fit your needs and routine.

Therapeutic approaches and what online work can look like

Dr. Martin uses approaches that focus on values, practical change, and emotional connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then take small steps toward what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding important relationship feelings and changing interaction patterns to feel more connected and understood.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they’ll try approaches that match the person’s needs and adjust the work as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how therapy will fit into your routine. Online therapy can help fit care into a busy life by reducing travel time and making it easier to schedule brief check-ins around work or caregiving. It can also allow for sessions when someone needs lower-bandwidth options or a shorter appointment to handle a single issue. Ask about the available formats and scheduling details during the initial matching and booking steps.
