Saul Martinez, LCSW
About me
I have had the opportunity to work in this field for 15 years, first as a caseworker and eventually as a Social Worker. In my time working with clients in foster care I have had the privilege of helping youth and their families come back together with supports to ensure their health, wellness and ability to thrive. My approach is solution focused and informed by the use of cognitive behavior therapy to assist my clients in making decisions that empower them in their wellbeing. Overall, I would say that my experience has led me to understand that the road to a better life is determined in collaboration with the clients I have had the opportunity to serve and fortifying a clients network of support has always led to positive outcomes.
