I believe in the power of human connection to get us through life’s challenges. Reaching out for help in our most vulnerable moments can be difficult and overwhelming.

To feel genuine pride in how far you have come, and continue to go. To have a feeling of hope for better days to come, strength to let go of what may no longer serve you and what has been holding you back from living the ultimate life of your wildest dreams.

Hi, my name is Jessica Martinez. I have nearly 10 years of experience working with teens and adult who have experienced crisis and varying forms of trauma to include sexual abuse, human sex trafficking, physical abuse/neglect, domestic violence, witnessing violent crimes, witnessing a death, as well as teens who have been involved with the foster care system and/or the juvenile justice system. I also have experience working with parents in providing support and education on trauma. I enjoy meeting with families and helping families understand, they are not alone.

I believe therapy is a process that takes effort from both the client and the therapist working together to achieve the client's goals. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other therapies, I show my clients how they can replace their current thoughts with more positive and adaptive thoughts, which will change their mood and behaviors. I believe that clients have control of their treatment and can achieve a lot more than they think they can. I will work with clients in providing the skills that will help them achieve their goals. I am licensed in both Iowa and Nebraska and can diagnose co-occurring disorders.
