Martin Coleman

Martin Coleman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 14 years of experience. He works with adults facing life changes, relationship and intimacy questions, stress, anxiety, career doubts, parenting concerns, and LGBT issues. He also addresses attachment and abandonment wounds, blended family and fatherhood challenges, codependency, and struggles with emptiness and forgiveness.

Martin uses clear, conversational sessions that focus on what is happening now. He listens to the story people bring and helps them notice patterns that get in the way. Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented while also allowing space to talk through painful or confusing feelings.

His approach draws on client-centered principles that prioritize the client's perspective. He also uses narrative and solution-focused methods to help people rethink roles, choices, and next steps. Mindfulness techniques are included where they help reduce anxiety or improve focus.

In a typical appointment Martin will ask about recent events, what the client hopes to change, and what has been tried already. He then works collaboratively to set short-term goals and small experiments. The emphasis is on doable steps that fit everyday life, not abstract theory.

People come to him when they feel stuck after a job change, a breakup, a new parenting role, or when lifelong patterns resurface. He accepts work with international clients and conducts sessions in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Approaches used in online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's experience and perspective, with the therapist reflecting back what is said and helping the client take the lead on goals. It is useful when someone needs to sort through feelings and decide what matters next.

Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships. By examining and reframing those stories, clients can try new behaviors and test different ways of relating. Solution-focused therapy emphasizes concrete, short-term steps and practical experiments to produce small, measurable changes between sessions.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Martin will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches best match their goals, preferences, and what they hope to change. That choice can shift over time as sessions reveal what helps most.

Session logistics vary by practitioner and platform, and the biography does not list specific formats here. Confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so clients can use breaks or evenings more effectively.
