Martha Witkowski, LPCC, LPC

Martha is extremely good at what she does. She’s very insightful when she responds and gives me different ways of thinking about things. Even though she doesn’t do video or call currently, the connection between a counselor and a patient isn’t lost.

Martha has done an incredible job of getting to know me and my personal situation. She has offered so much affirmation and encouragement along the way - I look forward to getting into more applicable therapy once this initial processing phase is more completed and she has a better idea for what I need/want to work on/process through. I already feel more hope than I did before I started counseling with Martha, and I look forward to seeing what comes of our time together going forward.
