More about me

Licensing: Master Human Services License Professional Counselor (NJ & PA) National Certified Counselor Years in Practice: 30 State: New Jersey

Greetings

I have always had a deep affection for the field of Human Services since the day my siblings came to me seeking advice for whatever problems they had. That personal experience led me to peruse my affection for counseling.



My educational credentials consist of a Master’s in Human Services, License Professional Counselor in both New Jersey & Pennsylvania, and a National Certified Counselor. Additionally, I have extensive training and experience in providing holistic personal development through behavior modification to individuals from all walks of life.

For more than 30 years, I have been blessed with opportunities to provide therapeutic counseling in systems such as: Child Welfare, Criminal Justice, Educational, Cooperate sector, and Military Family Life (all branches). This interaction has provided me with impeccable communication and engagement skills. My eclectic treatment approach is distinct, genuine, and personable using Cognitive Behavioral and Client Centered Therapy. My energetic personality coupled with a sense of humor has always allowed me to engage the most resistant client.

I have come to realize in any therapeutic counseling relationship, to effectively correct thinking and behavioral patterns that produce life long change, the client must be empowered how everything starts and ends with the individual. As a Therapist, I am the instrument that provides a genuine safe space for you to be you while welcoming change inch by inch with the belief, “All things work together for an abundance of good”.

Together, Let’s Do This!!!!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Ranging from $60 to $90 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

In this world it is hard to find people who are willing and caring to aid us and walk with us through our troubles. I was one of them until I found Paula, who is a sweet hearted kind and caring soul who is willing to walk with you through your battles and aid you. I had some childhood traumas I didn’t know how to handle and work through them I also had problems with with social interactions.You have helped me and my partner get through things and hard moments and improve our ability to understand each other. Thank you Paula for everything you’ve done to help me improve.

Paula is phenomenal! After trying 3 other counselors she was my perfect match. I am so thankful and extremely blessed to have her in my life, she has helped me through a very dark season of my life. Paula listens, she listens to every single thing I have to say, she doesn’t devalue my feelings but challenges me to face them and to find the root. My sessions with her have been life changing. I absolutely love her professionalism, her flexibility, and her care. I would change her for any other counselor in the world.

I’m shocked at how perfectly matched I was to Paula. I’m so happy to have her as my counselor, I feel like she understands exactly what I’m going through & she gives me solutions that I didn’t have confidence to even think about. I can’t wait to see what the rest of our journey will look like.

She inspires me every week with each session. I am so grateful for getting matched with her. It was definitely meant to be. PAULA IS THE THE BEST. That's it plain and simple.

Paula Martin has taught me so many things during our sessions. She has helped me become stronger in ways I didn’t think I could. What I saw as weaknesses she saw as strengths. When I was a mess and had no direction she helped me through it. Not only did we talk about bad things but also good. I genuinely feel so lucky I got the chance to be paired with Pula Martin. My only hope is others can be as positively impacted as I was. I can not thank her enough for letting me feel like I can breathe again.

Paula is a compassionate, experienced, and amazing listener. She helped me get to a place in my life that I have fought and struggled to get to, for far too long. Sharing strategies, tools, and beautiful words of advice, Paula taught me so much about life, relationships, and most importantly myself. I think of Paula as my guardian angel who guided me to a place of peace that I hope to stay. Anyone who has the privilege of working with this phenomenal lady will come out with a stronger sense of self and a true appreciation of life and all of its possibilities. Sometimes you just have to finally let go of all that has gotten in your way…Paula will guide you in that journey.
