About Martha
Martha Cobb is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 26 years of experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship concerns, parenting stress, and attention-related difficulties. Martha uses practical, goal-focused methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses.
She favors approaches that emphasize clear steps and active practice. That often means identifying patterns that keep problems going, testing small changes between sessions, and tracking what helps most. She also draws on mindfulness practices to help people regulate strong emotions and stay present during difficult moments.
Martha pays attention to how life changes, identity, and relationships affect mood and behavior. She helps people work through feelings of abandonment, guilt, shame, or emptiness. She also supports those dealing with anger, infidelity, caregiver stress, or complicated family and communication problems.
Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Sessions commonly involve setting short-term goals, trying new skills, and reviewing what worked. Martha uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered methods, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques as appropriate to the person’s needs.
People looking for a practical, structured approach to daily problems may appreciate her focus on skills and small experiments. She practices in North Carolina and conducts sessions in English. To begin, prospective clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How CBT and related approaches work in remote sessions
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It breaks problems into small, concrete steps and uses practice between sessions to change how someone thinks and acts. This can help with anxiety, depression, and stress-related patterns.Client-centered work emphasizes listening and reflecting the person’s concerns back so they can clarify goals and make decisions. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and improve emotion regulation in everyday moments.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative task. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit the person’s situation, and adjust work based on what helps. That means sessions can mix CBT exercises, motivational interviewing questions, and brief mindfulness practices as needed.

They can also allow people to use practices learned in session in their usual daily settings.
