About Me
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor graduated from the University of Maryland with 16 years of experience. I have worked in a variety of settings, ranging from the homeless population of New York, in-home therapy, schools and office settings. I have provided individual, family and couples counseling. I have focused on issues regarding depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, panic attacks and behavioral issues however I also have experience working with individuals dealing with substance abuse, dual diagnoses, phase of life problems, adjustment problems, abuse, trauma, low self esteem, relational problems, social skills, attention and concentration difficulties, parenting issues, among other issues of concern.
I use a series of modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Client-Centered, solution-focused approach and family systems suited for each individual's needs. I strive to create a compassionate, judgement-free atmosphere in every session.
I believe everyone has the capacity to reach their full potential with the necessary tools. It just takes courage to acknowledge we all need a little help from the right people and the right places. If you are ready for personal growth and positive changes I am here to support you and empower you.
Looking forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Martha "Marty" Mauppin. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Marty is an awesome human being that promotes the idea of having oneself discover the answers to make change in their life as opposed to telling you what to do. It is an absolute pleasure to work with her in exploring my own core belief systems. The client definitely has to put in the work for themselves too which is something I value.

She has been a tremendous help in navigating some of my most darkest hours. From helping me through the grieving process with my mom to working through a break up. She has been tremendously helpful in helping me in my personal growth.

Marty does a great job of being proactive. Her tips that she gives me during the week, not just during therapy are a great help. I have noticed the strides I am making, and I couldn’t have done it alone

Marty is wonderful at what she does and I enjoyed my time with her! She is very responsive, kind, punctual, dependable and knowledgable. She helped make my overwhelming goals manageable. My subscription ended before I had the chance to formally say good bye to her and thank her for everything. So i’ll say it here. Thank you Marty! I wish you all the best and am SO thankful for everything I learned from you :)
