Allison Martinez

Allison Martinez

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


I am a licensed clinical social worker, clinical supervisor, and psychotherapist with over 25 years of experience helping individuals navigate trauma, emotional distress, and life transitions.

My career has included work in schools, outpatient counseling centers, and hospital settings, where I supported individuals facing mood disorders, addiction, and psychosis. I’ve worked with clients across the lifespan—from young children to older adults—and bring a broad, real-world perspective to my practice.

As a certified trainer in trauma-informed care, I use practical, effective tools to help you better understand your emotional responses, regulate stress, and feel more grounded. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your specific needs. I draw from a range of therapeutic techniques to help you gain insight, shift patterns, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Clients often tell me that our work together helps them feel less overwhelmed, more self-aware, and better able to cope with life’s challenges. I strive to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and comfortable being yourself.

Some of the feedback that I received from clients are:

"You give me a perspective so I don’t get stuck and I realize I don’t have to solve it all at once

"You have forever affected how I look at things in a positive way"

"You changed how I look at things. I know I can do it, so I achieve it. The re-parenting thing gives me a way to understand people and myself."

"You help people be comfortable in their own skin."

Michele Marciano

Michele Marciano

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


I've spent ten years in mental health — nine of them in the intersection of addiction and trauma — and what I've learned is that clinical tools only work when they're explained in ways people can actually use outside the therapy room.

My approach is energetic and practical: I break things down in plain language, connect them to real-life situations, and help clients build skills they can apply immediately. I work with adults on anxiety, PTSD, trauma, substance use, eating disorders, OCD, BPD, infertility, family stress, and relationship challenges.

As a Native American therapist, I bring cultural awareness and lived understanding to my work — especially for clients navigating identity, systemic barriers, and experiences that don't always fit standard clinical frameworks.

Therapist

Virtual • Toms River, NJ


Do you feel Unseen? Misunderstood? Lonely? And ready to do the inner work of healing from your past? Many of the women and teens I work with are high-functioning, thoughtful, and deeply caring. They often understand their struggles intellectually, have read the books, or may have even been to therapy before. Yet their nervous system still reacts in ways that don't feel aligned with who they want to be. If you're ready to move beyond simply understanding your patterns and begin transforming, you don't have to navigate that alone.

Steven Cohen

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


I believe therapy works best when you can be yourself, and that starts with me being myself. My style is warm, conversational, and down-to-earth. I don't believe therapy has to feel formal or intimidating. Instead, I see it as a genuine conversation with purpose, where we work together to better understand what's happening in your life and identify meaningful ways forward.

I also believe that change rarely happens in a straight line. Progress often includes unexpected turns, setbacks, and moments of insight. Rather than focusing on perfection, we'll work to understand patterns, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools that fit your life.

My goal is to create an environment where you feel comfortable asking difficult questions, exploring challenges honestly, and even finding moments of humor along the way. Therapy doesn't have to feel like you're being analyzed. It should feel like you're working with someone who is genuinely invested in helping you make sense of your experiences and move toward the life you want.
