About Martin
Martin Coleman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 14 years of practice. He works with adults carrying guilt, shame, relationship strain, anxiety, stress, parenting concerns, and questions about identity and intimacy.
Martin focuses on clear conversation and steady listening. He talks through what led to the guilt or shame and what keeps those feelings alive now. Sessions look at relationships, patterns from the past, and practical steps to change unhelpful habits.
He uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to each person. Mindfulness tools are offered to help notice painful feelings without getting overwhelmed. Narrative approaches are used to separate a person from the story they tell about themselves.
Martin also draws on solution-focused ideas to identify small, reachable changes. Together these methods aim to make the next steps feel more manageable, whether the concern is intimacy, parenting, or career stress.
He has worked with people dealing with abandonment, attachment struggles, blended family issues, codependency, substance problems, and forgiveness questions. He has experience with BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture within therapy conversations.
Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.
How his approaches translate to online work
Martin uses client-centered therapy to follow each person's concerns and priorities. In practice that means the conversation is guided by what the client brings, helping to focus on the most relevant feelings and decisions. This approach suits issues like guilt, relationship questions, and parenting stress.He also uses mindfulness techniques to teach noticing thoughts and sensations without getting swept away. Those short practices can be done during sessions and repeated between meetings to reduce reactivity to shame or anxiety. Narrative therapy is used to rewrite the stories people tell about themselves, which can help with identity, attachment, and forgiveness concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Martin will help clients decide whether to emphasize listening and exploration, mindfulness practice, or practical solution-focused steps based on goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can shift as needs change.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule brief check-ins, practice mindfulness between meetings, or attend from a different time zone when international arrangements are needed.
