Cait Martinez is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with adults and couples navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, and relationship concerns. She especially enjoys supporting people who appear to have everything together but feel overwhelmed, stretched thin, or stuck beneath the surface. Cait also works with neurodivergent adults, particularly those with ADHD, helping them develop greater self-understanding and sustainable strategies that fit how their brains work.
Her approach to individual therapy integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) to help clients recognize patterns, build on their strengths, and take practical steps toward their goals. She also incorporates Internal Family Systems (IFS) to explore the different parts of a person’s experience, such as the inner critic, the overachiever, or the part that feels exhausted. Somatic approaches support clients in recognizing how stress shows up in the body and developing ways to feel more grounded.
Cait has completed Gottman Method Levels 1 and 2 training. In couples therapy, she helps partners understand recurring patterns, navigate conflict, rebuild trust, and strengthen friendship and intimacy. Her work emphasizes practical communication and relationship skills that couples can use in everyday life.
Calm, perceptive, and honest, Cait brings warmth, curiosity, and dry humor to the therapy room. She believes therapy can be meaningful without feeling stiff or overly serious. She creates a supportive space where clients can set aside the pressure to have everything figured out, explore their needs, and work toward change at a manageable pace.
Born and raised in Lubbock, Cait earned her Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of North Texas in 2020 and her Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy from Our Lady of the Lake University’s COAMFTE-accredited program in 2022.
