01About Ryan
Ryan Martin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Connecticut with four years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma, bipolar disorder, and depression. He aims to create a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate space for conversation.
Ryan uses a conversational, client-centered way of working. He listens closely and adapts sessions to each person’s needs. That can mean practical skills for panic and anxiety, strategies to manage mood swings, or steady support after traumatic events.
Background and approach
He draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and develop new coping steps. Dialectical behavior techniques are used to teach emotional regulation and distress-tolerance skills when feelings feel overwhelming. Jungian and existential perspectives help people explore meaning, values, and recurring patterns that shape life choices.
Ryan often starts by asking what matters most and what a better week would look like. From there he and the client outline small, achievable steps and check progress each session. He prefers chat sessions but offers flexibility to use the format that fits a person best.
Sessions can include short skills practice, discussion of recent struggles, and planning for what comes next. Ryan respects each person’s pace and helps them build tools for everyday challenges.

04Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the client’s lead and shapes conversation around immediate concerns and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific skills to change patterns that increase anxiety or low mood. It’s useful for panic, social anxiety, and depression because sessions can include concrete homework and skill practice.Finding the right approach happens together. The therapist will check what you want to work on, try methods that fit your goals, and adjust as you learn what helps. That collaborative process lets you test strategies and keep the techniques that actually make day-to-day life easier.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you keep visual cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can be a good fit if bandwidth is limited or you prefer no camera. Chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, skill coaching between sessions, or for people who find typing easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or a busy schedule while keeping the focus on progress and practical tools.
