About Perry
Perry Martin is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Texas who uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. He works directly with individuals who are facing life transitions, relationship strain, career challenges, or struggles with self-esteem and intimacy. Perry keeps sessions straightforward and goal-focused.
He uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help clients change unhelpful patterns and clarify what matters most.
How Perry works
He also draws on client-centered and emotionally focused approaches to strengthen emotional awareness and connection to personal values. Clients can expect calm, clear guidance and hands-on skills for coping with strong emotions. Perry helps people build routines, set realistic goals, and practice new ways of communicating.
He also offers support for grief, anger, caregiver stress, and issues tied to adoption, attachment, or family of origin. With four years of clinical experience as an LMFT, Perry combines practical strategies with caring feedback. He pays attention to each person’s history and current pressures to tailor the work.
The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Perry offers several session formats to fit different needs, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions based on therapist availability.

How Perry's Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values while learning to accept difficult emotions. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replacing them with practical skills and problem-solving. It often helps with stress, low mood, and anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening, empathy, and supporting a person's own pace of change; it supports emotional exploration and building self-compassion.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Perry collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. He will adjust techniques over time so sessions stay relevant and useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options provide flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives and different daily routines.
