Talking to Marta has been really helpful for me. She's been helping me work through so much in my life. And as someone who travels a lot for work with a crazy schedule, being able to do things online has been really helpful.

Martha is great. Giving me active help when I need it and letting me talk through things when I need someone to listen.

Marta has been my therapist for a year now and she has been wonderful especially not knowing anything about therapy and how it works she is understanding and really makes sure I am understanding of what therapy is all about. She listens to my problems and things I need and helps me constantly through anything I am going through every week. She is great!

Marta is a fantastic therapist! She listens, offers feedback, and works with you to work on the areas of concern you have. She’s very kind, calming, and non judgmental. She is very knowledgeable and uses all kinds of resources to aid in your treatment. Highly recommend her!
