About

Hello, I am Martin Romero. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor & a National Certified Counselor with eighteen years of providing Addiction, Behavior, Mental Health, & Trauma counseling to clients in need. I earned a Master's in Education from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary and a Masters in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. I've worked in many different clinical settings since 2003. I am a passionate and empathetic therapist with strong counseling abilities and an understanding of interpersonal familial relationships. I have experience leading clients through court ordered treatment, many different behavioral classes, family (traditional, step, foster & forever), couple (pre/post, domestic abuse, intimacy, communication) issues, mood disorders and trauma. Through clinical & personal experience, compassion, and empathy I support and assist those willing to make a positive difference in their lives. I pride myself in providing a safe and supportive space, working side by side to overcome addiction, troubling behaviors, mood disorders, traumas, and other life barriers. I specialize in Motivational Interviewing, Rational Emotive Behavior (a specialized branch of CBT) and Eye Movement & Desensitization and Replacement (EMDR) Therapy. I am fully committed to listen and offer my best professional practices to help you. I have 40 years sobriety and clean time, spent most of my teen life in some type of institution, and I've greived the loss of two children, a wife, and others that I loved. You can count on my empathetic and person-centered with positive regard approach in every conversation and session. Thank you for taking the first step and for allowing me to be part of this very important journey. I look forward to meeting you!
