Martha Mino, LCSW

Martha Mino is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and intimacy-related concerns. She works in both English and Spanish and brings seven years of clinical experience to her practice in Florida.

Her approach is practical and collaborative. She listens to each person's story and creates a plan that fits their day-to-day life. Sessions focus on clear steps people can use between meetings, not just talk about feelings.

Martha combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centered methods to identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that keep problems going. She also draws on emotionally-focused work to help people name and understand strong feelings in relationships and personal life.

Many sessions include mindfulness skills to manage stress and reduce overwhelm. She can also use hypnotherapy when clients are curious about that option as a way to reinforce new habits and reduce anxiety symptoms.

She aims to make starting therapy straightforward. Martha supports people who are coping with loss, dealing with communication problems, facing substance concerns, or recovering from violence and abuse. She meets people where they are and helps them set small, achievable goals toward feeling better.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and shaping sessions around each person's concerns; online sessions let that conversation happen in whatever format feels easiest, in English or Spanish. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and practice new behaviors between meetings, which works well through video or text because homework and worksheets can be shared and reviewed remotely. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and work with strong feelings, and those conversations can be held meaningfully over video or in long-form messaging when people need time to reflect.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that match those needs. That collaborative process means techniques can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers several practical advantages. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation, phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and live chat or text-based messaging can suit people who prefer writing or who need flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work between sessions.
