About Andrea Martinez

Andrea Martinez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who brings extensive experience supporting youth ages 6-19 in a county mental health setting. As an LCSW - a professional credential for providing clinical social work - she combines clinical knowledge with a compassionate, strengths-based perspective to meet each young person where they are.

Her style is warm, collaborative, and tailored to individual needs. Andrea specializes in the Community Resiliency Model (CRM), an evidence-based method that helps people tune into bodily signals and use grounding skills to manage stress and intense emotions. Through CRM, young clients learn practical tools to increase resilience, regulate feelings, and stay more present in daily life.

Andrea creates a nonjudgmental space where youth can explore their experiences, practice coping strategies, and strengthen their sense of self. Her aim is to help each person develop the skills needed to navigate life changes and emotional challenges with greater ease and confidence.
