About Martine
Martine Baron is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 20 years of practice. She works with adults on common struggles such as stress, anxiety, relationships, parenting, career concerns, depression, family tension, and grief. Sessions are conducted in English and Martine accepts international clients.
Martine listens with attention and asks straightforward questions to clarify what is most worrying. She uses a strengths-based outlook to name goals and focus on small, practical steps you can try between sessions. Expect clear, direct feedback and a mix of talking and skill-building exercises.
Her clinical approach includes client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior ideas to manage intense feelings and improve coping. She also draws on emotionally-focused methods for relationship-related concerns and on EMDR for trauma-related work when appropriate. Martine will explain these options and help you decide what to try.
She describes her style as open and respectful, attending to life context such as caregiving roles, immigration stress, aging concerns, or fertility struggles. Common topics she helps people address include communication problems, codependency, grief, guilt and shame, and life purpose questions.
Martine can introduce faith-based counseling techniques if a client requests that approach. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
BHow sessions work
How Martine adapts therapy approaches for online work
Martine uses client-centered therapy to prioritize what matters most to the person. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting what you say, and helping you clarify goals so sessions are driven by your priorities. It is useful for general life stress, relationship questions, and periods of transition.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. CBT is practical and action-focused, and it often includes short exercises or worksheets you can do between sessions to track progress. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills appear in her work for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance and communication when feelings feel overwhelming.
Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Martine will discuss these options with you, outline what each approach involves, and make a plan based on your goals, preferences, and daily life demands. She adjusts pace and techniques as you go so you can find what works in practice.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can help fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel. Video lets you use visual cues and worksheets together, while phone sessions can be a shorter check-in with less bandwidth or no camera. The focus is on making therapy manageable within everyday routines rather than on a particular delivery method.
