Dr. Jessica Martin, Psychologist
About me
I am licensed in State of Iowa with 12 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with coping with addictions, sleeping disorders, chronic medical/health adversity, geriatric-related life changes, career difficulties, military related issues, anxiety, and depression. After gathering from you a comprehensive history and your identified goals for therapy during our initial session, I will work with you to tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. For some, take the first step to sign-up for therapy can feel intimidating and unfamiliar. I am committed to fostering a supportive and accepting environment to assist you with reaching you identified goals and become a healthier you.

Dr Martin is so supportive and has really helped me identify ways to help me stay in a healthy state of mind without relapsing back to my dark space. My sessions with her have been very helpful to restoring my mental health to a better place and I’m so grateful.

Dr. Martin is great! She was very good at helping me understand myself and where I was prior to starting therapy. During our time, she helped me with tools to help me overcome the struggles that I was facing. She was great at being graceful when she knew that I needed it and yet still helped me get to where I am today. I would recommend Dr. Martin 10 out of 10 times!

Dr Martin is very empathetic and understanding. I have never once felt judged by her, and have felt free to be my authentic self. I feel like I can trust her with what's going on inside my mind.
