About Martin

Martin Danner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Texas. He brings nine years of clinical work to sessions and focuses on practical, solution-minded help for common life challenges. Martin speaks English and aims to create a calm, forward-moving space for people ready to change.

He uses clear, goal-focused strategies to help with stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. Relationship concerns and intimacy-related struggles are a frequent focus, as are parenting strain, career crossroads, and coping with grief or trauma. He also supports people navigating LGBT issues, ADHD-related challenges, and compassion fatigue.

Martin blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to match each person's needs. He draws on the Gottman Method and Imago Relationship Therapy for relationship work, and uses narrative elements when helpful. Sessions tend to be practical and encouraging, aimed at small steps clients can try between meetings.

His background includes work with family of origin and attachment issues, communication problems, control and forgiveness concerns, and obsessive-compulsive patterns. Martin also offers coaching-style support for career and life purpose questions. He describes his style as solutions focused, upbeat, and collaborative.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely and helps people find their own solutions. This approach is useful for building trust, working through self-esteem concerns, and steering any change at the client’s pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It breaks big problems into smaller steps and tests new ways of behaving. CBT can help with anxiety, stress, anger, and repetitive patterns like obsessive or compulsive behaviors.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions within close relationships. It helps people name core feelings and shift how they respond to each other. This approach is often used for intimacy struggles and communication problems.

Choosing an approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, priorities, and what feels most useful. Together they can try different strategies and adjust over time to find what works best for the individual.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, since the profile does not list formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, avoid travel time, and use shorter check-ins when needed. For some people, remote sessions reduce time away from work or errands and allow steady progress even with a tight schedule.
