About Perry

Perry Martin is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Texas who uses evidence-based methods to help people move through difficult emotions and life changes.

Background and approach

He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside other proven approaches to address depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and stress, and he frames treatment around each client's individual needs and goals. With a four-year clinical background, he blends practical skill-building with empathic listening to help clients learn new ways of coping and relating.

His work also attends to relationship and intimacy concerns, communication challenges, workplace stress, and identity issues. Perry integrates tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy as fits the situation, and he emphasizes collaboration so clients can practice strategies that feel meaningful in daily life.

He aims to help people strengthen resilience, improve self-understanding, and pursue realistic steps toward healthier relationships and greater emotional balance.

Online Therapy Approaches and Practical Access



Perry commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress, while ACT emphasizes values-based action and learning to relate differently to painful thoughts and feelings to improve overall functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Perry treats selection of techniques as a collaboration. He will work with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and challenges and then suggest a mix of strategies that fits their situation rather than prescribing one single method from the start.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for people with busy schedules or geographic constraints. These formats make it possible to practice new skills between sessions, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and access therapy from wherever the client is located in Texas.
