Pete Martyn

I strongly believe that each of my clients is the expert on their own life and experiences — while acknowledging that all of us have times where we can feel like anything but that! Whether you are seeking therapy out of a desire for self-care, self-improvement, or self-discovery, I would welcome the chance to work with you. My role is not to provide advice or to tell you how things are, but to aid you and support you in exploring your own mind and feelings as we work towards your goals. We cannot change the past, but we can find new ways to relate to it, and in doing so, shape our future into whatever we want it to be. I use a person-centered approach to therapy that is based on a strong belief in the power that we all possess to make meaning and to shape the stories we tell ourselves about our lives. I have a passion for work on issues around romantic relationships, which I approach from an affirming, accepting, and sex-positive perspective. At the heart of successful therapy is connection — a connection shaped by the wisdom, compassion, and sometimes even humor and playfulness that each person contributes. I welcome inquiries from individuals, couples, and groups. Let’s talk and see what we can do!
