“Through my sessions with Martha I have learned not only to trust myself but get down to the causes and conditions on why it was so difficult for me to do so in the past. I have been seeing Martha for over a year now. Every visit is different and I truly appreciate the different techniques she uses that allows me to cope with my emotions in ways that I have never done before. I am also a woman in recovery from substance abuse. I have never maintained any type of sobriety except for these last two and a half years. I truly believe that a big part of my continued sobriety has to do with my sessions. Martha is very knowledgeable in the program I work for my recovery and has been able to guide me and also cheer me on throughout every milestone.”

“Martha came as a referral from a friend when we were having big issues in our marriage. She was so kind and understanding. Martha was able to get our communication back on track and greatly helped to put many of the pieces back together. Her knowledge of substance abuse and recovery is astounding and she has an incredible way with words that helps to make both of us understand each other in a way we never saw before. She truly is a special person and a beacon of hope in helping restore our marriage. “

“I was introduced to Martha in 2017 when I was in search of recovery help for a member of my family. I’m not surprised that I connected instantly with her inherent, gentle energy and began using her counseling services for myself. She is extremely knowledgeable in 12-step recovery programs and provides me with a safe, judgement-free environment to express myself and the situations I confront along my journey. Martha embodies the elements of compassion and she recognizes and understands the vulnerable, human conditions we encounter in our lives, which helps put my own situations into a larger perspective. She carries with her a kind, open heart, and offers mindful suggestions that serve as solutions and life-long learning tools. I am excited to be working with Martha and taking a healthy and mindful approach to my life. “

“I’ve worked with Martha for over 7 years. First I saw her 2 times weekly then weekly then monthly and now occasionally. She helped me with early sobriety and stayed with me while developing resource skills and coming to terms with and advocating for myself due to egregious institutional trauma. “

— Amanda, Northbridge
“Martha’s caring and constructive guidance through early sobriety and the beginnings of a spiritual existence were instrumental in my recovery. As I worked through my “searching and fearless moral inventory” I encountered feelings and emotions that I seemed to be wired to avoid. Learning to live with these things was the key to the emotional sobriety I have today. I couldn’t be more grateful to her for all she has done for me.”
