Lisa Martinez (she/her)

As a certified grief specialist and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I bring deep clinical training and lived experience to every session. Having lost a child, a parent, a pregnancy, and more, I understand grief from the inside. I help clients navigate bereavement and traumatic loss, moving slowly toward meaning without ever pretending there is a finish line.

As a Level 2 Gottman-trained couples therapist, I bring specialized clinical training and personal experience with relational complexity to this work. I’ve worked with many couples navigating disconnection, conflict, and rupture. Our sessions are collaborative and practical — building communication, rebuilding trust, and finding a path forward that honors both partners.

As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional with advanced training in compassion-focused mindfulness and EMDR techniques, I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience with trauma and loss. I understand this terrain from the inside. Together we move toward integration — not erasing what happened, but living alongside it with steadiness and self-compassion.

As a Level 2 Gottman-trained couples therapist, I bring specialized clinical training, cultural expertise, and personal experience with Gottman methods to this work. I understand that every relationship carries its own cultural context and complexity. Together we use evidence-based Gottman principles to build communication, repair rupture, rebuild trust, and find a path forward that honors both partners.

As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I bring advanced training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and trauma-informed mindfulness to this work. I understand trauma from both a clinical and personal perspective. Together we move toward integration — not erasing what happened, but building a life no longer defined by it.

With training and personal experience in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, I help clients move toward a life aligned with their deepest values rather than defined by pain or avoidance. The framework of my practice is built on purposeful and experimental goal setting. ACT isn’t about feeling better — it’s about living better, fully and intentionally, even in the presence of difficulty.
