Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Patrick Martinez draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to support people working through a range of concerns. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental space where the individual’s experiences guide the work; it is useful for building self-awareness, self-esteem, and trust in the therapeutic relationship. CBT helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, delivering practical tools for managing anxiety, mood challenges, and everyday stressors. DBT offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Patrick will work with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then tailor methods and pacing so the work fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with Patrick is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access consistent support from a licensed professional without disrupting daily life, while allowing therapists and clients to focus on progress and practical coping strategies.
