If you're seeking a therapist who blends empathy, practicality, and a touch of uniqueness, you've found your match.
The Big Sky Difference
Heartfelt Connection:
My therapeutic style is not just about sessions; it's about building a genuine and heartfelt connection. I'm not here to offer a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, I'm committed to understanding your unique journey, challenges, and aspirations. Together, we'll create a space where you feel seen, heard, and truly understood, and of course - establish a partnership that brings meaningful change.
Real-World Application:
Life is happening now and rarely does it feel perfect. I specialize in integrating life-deepening strategies into your everyday experiences. Whether you're tackling mood challenges, self worth issues, postpartum difficulties, or relationship dynamics, I bring useful techniques to real-world scenarios.
Continual Growth:
Stagnation has no place in my approach. My commitment to staying current with the latest research and practices ensures that you receive the most effective, evidence-based tools available. I deeply believe in your feedback - when you find an approach particularly helpful, I want to know. And when something doesn’t land well, I want to know about that, too. Our time together will be anchored in transparency and honesty. I’m here for you.

The Details:
Hi there! I'm Martina, a dedicated, heart-led practitioner on a mission to guide you toward holistic well-being. I know what it feels like to be trapped inside harmful thoughts and behaviors - wishing for change, but confused on where to start. My professional practice was born out of a personal revolution to find healing, truth, and authenticity. I’m excited to share the education and real-life experiences that helped me return home to myself.
Since 2016, I’ve served as a clinician, supervisor, and director. After becoming a mother to a tenacious little girl in 2022, I leaned more into my power than ever. My daughter taught me to move with intention, feel appreciation for the littlest of things, and unapologetically follow my passions. Big Sky Wellness was born from her influence.
It is my promise to embrace the same principles of self-care and continual growth that I advocate for in my practice. Outside of Big Sky, you'll find me in the wild, with dirt on my feet and sun on my skin. I come alive sleeping under the stars, wading in waterfalls, and on the back of a Harley. I’ll lose myself in yummy food and sunsets.
If you're ready to embark on a journey toward holistic well-being, where empathy, curiosity, and self-discovery are the guiding forces, I invite you to reach out. Together, we'll create a therapeutic space that honors your individuality and supports your transformative growth.
With gratitude,
LMSW, RYT200, Reiki Practitioner

The clients I work best with tend to have a few things in common:
They feel motivated to address patterns that no longer serve them (even if they’re not totally sure what that will look like).
They are willing to feel vulnerable (even if it feels scary).
They're ready to take ownership of their lives and make (sometimes tough) changes to support their wellbeing.
