About Patrick
Patrick Martinez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado. He offers a direct, respectful approach and aims to help people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or worn down by life. He presents therapy as a practical process and focuses on clear steps rather than jargon.
Patrick has 12 years of clinical experience working with issues such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, addiction, and depression. He also helps with self-esteem, motivation, career strain, and major life changes. His work pays attention to relationship concerns, parenting strain, grief, and intimacy-related issues when those topics come up in sessions.
In sessions he listens first and then shapes a straightforward plan with each person. He uses client-centered methods that let the client's goals guide the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools are used when they fit the problem and the client's style.
He also brings mindfulness practices and Motivational Interviewing into sessions to help with focus, coping, and commitment to change. Patrick adapts language and pacing so the work makes sense to each person he meets. He emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in all conversations.
Taking the first step can feel risky. Patrick frames that step as an act of courage and offers steady, practical support as people try new ways of dealing with stress, mood struggles, relationship problems, or life transitions.
