Therapy dedicated to women's and couples' mental health.

I’m Cheryl Martin

A little tidbit about me. I am a first generation American born Filipina; born and raised in San Francisco. I am a wife and a mother of three. When I’m not working or raising them, you can find me, scribbling in my journal, reading, exploring a new adventure, in search of a place to grab a bite to eat, out on an urban walk, car dancing and singing along to hit tunes, or glistening under the orange lights of Orange Theory Fitness. Where ever you may find me, guaranteed I will have a cup of coffee in my hand, probably the only exception is when I’m working out.

Journey to Wellness and Healing is my passion where, I dedicate my private practice in helping individuals overcome struggles and life transitions. I’ve always had an interest in helping people and learning how others have found healing. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate through life during transitions.

Education: I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology from San Francisco State University. I received my Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Holy Names University and board certified with Board of Behavioral Health Sciences in California. Currently, I am a Behavioral Health Supervisor for the Department of Public Health in San Francisco. I have worked with many individuals from all walks of life and backgrounds, from the very young – to the youngest and wisest of hearts

Modalities:  I would view my therapeutic approach as an integrated approach.  I believe we are unique individuals and therapy should be tailored and not a one size fits all design.  I have received extensive training in Trauma Focused Therapy (TFCBT), Eye Movement Desensitization (EMDR), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT).

I am licensed to practice therapy in California. Additionally, I offer clinical supervision to associates working towards licensure. 

Membership: California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists (CAMFT), EMDRIA, Board of Behavioral Sciences
