About Sherry Martinez

Sherry Martinez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Texas who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and depression. She also brings substantial clinical experience working with LGBTQIA+ clients and has treated conditions such as bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and various personality disorders.

Her path to social work began after a career in business management. In midlife she returned to school to earn a Master of Social Work and completed two additional years of clinical supervision to obtain her LCSW credential. That combination of professional life experience and clinical training informs a practical, empathetic approach to care.

Sherry has worked with adults from a wide age range and many different backgrounds, and she approaches each person as the expert on their own story. She emphasizes individual strengths as tools for working through challenges and supports clients as they take the often difficult first steps toward a more fulfilling life. Her style blends validation with evidence-informed strategies to help people move forward on their goals.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?

One of the key benefits is the flexibility it provides. Clients can choose the mode of connection that works best for them, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging, making it easier to fit care into a busy schedule.

Licensed professionals offer care through these formats, and clients can request a different therapist at any time if they need a better fit. For many people, remote sessions make consistent engagement with therapy more achievable while retaining the therapeutic benefits of working with a trained clinician.
