About me

Hello, my name is Nereida Martinez and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in the state of Texas to provide psychotherapy services. I have over 14 years of experience as a therapist and over 20 years of experience working in the mental health field. I have worked in different settings including community clinics, nonprofit organizations, the criminal justice system and in private practice. I believe my experience in these diverse settings has helped me understand people and their social, cultural and spiritual concerns in a more meaningful way. I have helped individual adults, teens and children cope with and heal from depression, anxiety and trauma. I have also helped them with concerns related to adjustment to life changes, managing and living with ADHD, parenting, relationships, and other concerns.

My goal as your therapist is to guide you, support you and encourage you to take the steps needed to meet your goals and overcome those obstacles in your life. I focus on providing a client-centered, accepting and safe environment during our sessions. I use techniques and modalities from different types of therapies, and I tailor the therapy to your individual needs.

Congratulations on taking the first step. I look forward to working with you and walking with you through your journey of change, self improvement and healing.

Ms. Martinez has given me many different ways to handle situations and they all have worked..That is so important!

Nereida is truly a gift! I have done therapy once before and it wasn't a great experience. Thankfully I was blessed to meet Nereida and she had made all the difference!

Nereida has been very easy for me to talk to and I feel very comfortable opening up to her about topics that are not easy for me to normally talk about. I have truly enjoyed our sessions.
