Racial Identity Therapists in Miami, FL
I have extensive research in racial identity development and identifying coping strategies for managing race-based traumatic stress.
The hardest step is walking through the door. Be proud in taking that first step. Maybe you know exactly why you've reached out for support; perhaps you don't and want to see how this works. Let's take it one step at a time. Hi! My name is Dr. Christina Martin and I am a Licensed Psychologist, who will work with you no matter what stage you are in, divulging in therapy. As you work with me, I use a relational-cultural, empathic, collaborative and integrative approach to meet you where you are to provide safe and transformative care.

Over the years, I have developed a multicultural lens that allows me to understand the unique intersecting challenges of cultural & racial identity, acculturation, studying abroad and immigration.

Do you feel disconnected and your needs are not met? Imagine being at peace with yourself and feeling heard, connected, loved, appreciated, and respected with your loved ones.

Asking for help and seeking treatment can be difficult for many! You're longing to feel more understood, less isolated, and more at home in your body and self. Maybe society has forced you to internalize messages such as "Get over it," “Don’t be so sensitive,” and "you shouldn't feel this way." There is enough space for ALL of your feelings and experiences here; all parts of you are welcome. You are worthy of care and compassion. My goal is never to convince you or change you- after all, you hold the most wisdom and knowledge about your body and what has happened in your life.

You have to be strong. All. The. Damn. Time. And that’s just become too much. Even for you. You have BIG feelings and may even cry when you’re alone, but hide them so the world can’t use them against you. You’re exhausted. But you can’t slow down for fear of what may happen if painful memories overwhelm you. Your internal voice is relentlessly mean and you want to shut it up, but you don’t even know if it’s possible to truly accept yourself. You know far too many people have too much access to your physical space or emotional energy, but you learned this is how to keep people around and saying “no” leaves you alone or rejected.

Everyone is looking for a safe place to be themselves. As I engage with Christians and people of color I often hear, “there’s no safe place for me get help with a counselor who is like me.” This is a lonely place to be, needing help, but feeling left out. My passion is helping Christians, people of color, refugees, immigrants, missionaries and those living cross culturally find a safe place to work through their life concerns. I enjoy helping women make safer dating choices and find their voice, and helping all my clients engage more healthily in all their relationships.
