About Martin
Martin Danner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Texas with nine years of experience. He works with people facing anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting struggles, grief, and career stress. He also helps with trauma and abuse, ADHD, and issues related to attachment and family of origin.
Martin uses practical, task-oriented methods in sessions. He combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) with client-centered and cognitive behavioral tools. Sessions generally focus on identifying patterns, naming emotions, and trying small changes that can shift interactions and feelings.
He brings experience from working with a broad range of life challenges. That includes communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, and workplace stress. He also addresses shame, guilt, jealousy, and isolation that can follow major life changes.
His style emphasizes clear goals and steps people can try between meetings. He uses the Enneagram (IEQ9 level 1) with some clients and has training in solution-focused brief therapy. These pieces are used alongside EFT and other approaches to help people notice what works and build on it.
Sessions are intended to be straightforward and focused on real problems. Martin helps people clarify what they want to change and plans manageable steps toward those goals.
How EFT and structured approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on identifying and naming emotions and the interaction patterns they create. It can help when people are stuck in recurring arguments or feel distant from others. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities to build understanding and clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and offers concrete skills to change unhelpful cycles.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide whether EFT, CBT, or a client-centered stance best fits current goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs evolve.
Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as this profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They are also useful when quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth are practical considerations. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises from EFT and CBT for remote sessions so people can practice new ways of relating and thinking between meetings.
