About Martha
Martha Quattlebaum is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina with seven years of clinical experience. She sees adults who are feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, or stuck. Her work often addresses relationship strain, parenting concerns, mood disorders, and the everyday stress of major life changes.
Martha frames sessions as practical and straightforward. She spends time identifying patterns that contribute to distress. Then she helps people develop coping skills for anxiety, mood regulation, communication, and setting boundaries. Conversations are intended to be honest and focused on what matters to each person.
Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-based strategies along with tools informed by DBT and trauma-aware care. These methods are described simply and used to match a person’s goals, not as rigid prescriptions.
Martha has worked with people facing depression, bipolar mood concerns, grief, burnout, and attachment-related struggles. She has also supported those dealing with substance use issues, domestic violence, and the stress of caregiving. Blended family issues are among the areas she lists as a focus.
Practical skills and clearer daily routines are a common emphasis. Sessions balance understanding what happened with developing concrete steps forward. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Evidence-based methods mentioned in her biography include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can ease anxiety and low mood. Mindfulness-based strategies are also used to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, useful for stress and emotional regulation.Her work also references DBT-informed skills and trauma-aware care. DBT skills focus on practical tools for managing intense emotions and improving communication. Trauma-aware care means attention to how past experiences affect current patterns and safety in pacing the work.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and personal preferences, and then suggest techniques that fit. Clients and the therapist can adjust methods over time as needs change.
The original biography does not list specific session formats. Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether sessions are offered by video, phone, or another format. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, or have a shorter check-in when needed. Licensed professionals can also vary pace and focus to match how much time someone has between other responsibilities.
