About Martine
Martine Saul is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who draws on nearly a decade of clinical experience to support people navigating grief, chronic health challenges, and major life transitions.
Background and approach
She integrates evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy with client-centered care to help clients build coping skills, address anxiety and depression, and work through trauma and relationship concerns. Her background includes graduate placements and hands-on experience in hospice and palliative care, which shaped a focus on bereavement, end-of-life counseling, and support for those facing serious illness.
Saul also brings experience working with older adults and those with cognitive changes, having coordinated activities for an adult day program and earned a certificate in gerontology. She has served as a service coordinator and continues to assemble local resources to support clients’ practical needs alongside psychotherapy.
In addition to independent practice, she co-facilitates a bereavement support group and engages in social advocacy work for her community, applying her training to both individual and group settings. Clients can expect an approach that blends structured techniques with empathic listening, tailored to concerns such as stress, addictions, identity-related challenges, bipolar disorder, and caregiving strain.
Saul provides services from Pennsylvania and conducts sessions using a range of online formats suited to varied schedules and needs.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Martine integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered methods to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which can be taught through practical exercises and collaborative homework; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening and meeting clients where they are, creating a space to explore identity, relationship concerns, and emotional processing without a directive stance.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is done collaboratively. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and experiences to determine whether CBT techniques, a more exploratory client-centered stance, or a combination will best support the client’s needs, adjusting over time as goals evolve.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or manage care from home. These options allow licensed professionals to use structured tools, talk therapies, and resource-sharing in formats that suit different communication styles and everyday routines.
