Martin Coleman, LPC

Martin Coleman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strains, and intimacy-related concerns. He also supports people dealing with parenting challenges, career questions, identity and LGBT matters, and struggles with self-esteem. Martin’s style is warm and interactive and he aims to make conversations feel respectful and direct.

He brings 14 years of counseling experience to sessions and draws on straightforward approaches to help clients move forward. That background includes work with people who have experienced emotional abuse or physical trauma, and those navigating separation, blended-family changes, addiction, or attachment wounds.

In sessions he adapts the conversation and plan to match each person’s needs. He uses client-centered methods to listen and respond, mindfulness to help manage stress, and narrative and solution-focused ideas to reframe problems and set achievable steps. The tone is practical rather than clinical, with a focus on usable tools and small changes.

People can expect Martin to help identify next steps, practice coping skills, and address communication or intimacy problems in plain language. He emphasizes building rapport and trust before moving to strategies. This makes therapy feel collaborative and goal-oriented.

How these approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience with empathy and respect. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist follow your lead and tailor questions so you feel heard and understood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and build calm, which can be practiced between appointments and reviewed in sessions.

Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships and finds ways to reframe those stories to reduce shame or stuck patterns. This approach can help with identity, intimacy, and relationship questions by uncovering new perspectives and options.

Finding the best approach is part of the early work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together you will choose which methods to emphasize. That collaborative process helps make sure the plan matches what you want to change and how you prefer to work.

Session logistics should fit your day-to-day life, for example scheduling around work or caregiving, using shorter check-ins when time is tight, or relying more on practices you can do between meetings. The specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking to learn how sessions will be delivered. Online work can make it easier to keep therapy consistent while managing a busy schedule.
