About Martina

Martina Jensen is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) based in Minnesota. She combines professional training with personal experience as a neurodivergent clinician and wheelchair user. Martina focuses on clear, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or exhausted by daily demands.

She helps adults who identify with ADHD and autism notice patterns that make life harder and build strategies that actually fit the way they think. Sessions tend to focus on small, doable changes rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.

Background and approach

Martina emphasizes strength-based work that recognizes neurodivergence as a different way of experiencing the world, not a flaw to fix. In therapy she uses evidence-based techniques and adapts them to each person. Conversations are collaborative and paced to the client’s needs.

Practical tools, communication strategies, and coping plans are common outcomes of her sessions. Martina also supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, parenting pressures, caregiver strain, chronic illness or pain, and issues around self-esteem and communication. She brings three years of clinical experience to these areas and centers clients’ day-to-day challenges when planning care.

Sessions are available in English and offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short questionnaire and scheduling through the platform, then working together to set realistic goals.

Evidence-based techniques adapted for online care

Martina draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral experiments to test new ways of responding; it can be useful for anxiety and low mood. Acceptance and Commitment approaches focus on identifying values and building meaningful action, which can help with motivation and confidence when life feels overwhelming. Trauma-informed care shapes how sessions are paced and how strategies are introduced, helping people feel safer when discussing difficult experiences.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Martina works with each person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust techniques based on what helps most. The plan can change over time as needs and priorities shift, and input from the client guides each step.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or mobility differences. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit into a quick break, live chat offers shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging lets clients reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and to use tools in everyday moments.
