    About Martine

    Martine Saul is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. She brings nine years of counseling experience and a practical, person-focused approach to sessions. Parents and caregivers will find clear guidance for grief, stress, mood concerns, and major life transitions.

    Martine has a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Chatham University and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Point Park University. She earned a certificate in Gerontology from the University of Pittsburgh in 2020, and she pairs that background with hands-on hospice and palliative care experience from her graduate placements.

    Her work includes bereavement and grief counseling for patients and loved ones, and she co-facilitates a bereavement support group. Martine also spent time coordinating services for clients, and she continues to share local resource information with people she sees in counseling.

    Martine has experience planning activities and supporting older adults, including those in early stages of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. She focuses on aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and disability, and hospice and end-of-life counseling alongside broader concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship stress.

    In sessions she uses approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. She aims to help people navigate change, manage difficult emotions, and find practical steps forward.

  2. How Martine blends approaches for online support

    Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused style that helps people find their own reasons to change. It is useful when someone feels stuck and wants practical steps toward healthier habits or decisions.

    Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own experience and pacing. The therapist listens closely, reflects back what is said, and helps people feel heard while they consider next steps.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It offers simple tools and small experiments to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and improve daily routines.

    Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Martine works together with each person to identify what fits their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adapts techniques over time so sessions match the client’s pace and priorities.

    Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are listed by the therapist. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. They can also allow someone to do work between sessions and bring real-life situations into conversation, which helps make changes more practical.
