Kathy Dold Martin

Psychotherapist

I am a psychotherapist working both online and in-person.

In-person: Fridays, 9am – 6pm, in Grey Lynn.
Online sessions: Monday to Thursday, times negotiable.

I am currently taking new clients.

I provide a safe and supportive space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, helping you to gain insight, develop coping skills, and make positive changes in your life.

I work with many issues, including:

  • Maternal mental health
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Relationship difficulties
  • Sexual abuse
  • Trauma

My approach:

My training is in psychodynamic and relational psychotherapy. Through a supportive and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, a deeper understanding of you and your underlying patterns can be discovered. Sometimes, ways we have adapted to difficulties in the past can begin to hinder us in the present. Together, we can explore and uncover these unconscious patterns, allowing you greater autonomy and choice moving forward.

FAQs

Q Am I the right therapist for you?

- I firmly believe the most important component of psychotherapy is the therapeutic relationship. Not every therapist will be right for every client. I consider the first 1 to 3 sessions to be an opportunity for us to get to know each other and decide if we will work together effectively.

- It is important to remember that your therapy is for you. Your therapist should make you feel safe and heard. It is okay to have sessions with more than one therapist to find the right person for you.
