About Martin
Martin Kane is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Massachusetts with 21 years of experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, relationship problems, grief, and challenges like sleep disruption, parenting strain, and career stress.
Martin has worked in both community and inpatient settings. He has experience supporting people who have histories of trauma and those managing mood conditions including bipolar disorder. He also helps clients with attention concerns and with changes that come from major life transitions.
His approach centers on matching methods to the person and the situation rather than using a single technique. He draws on client-centered therapy to focus on the person's perspective, and on cognitive behavioral strategies to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. He also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness exercises when those tools fit the client's needs.
In practical sessions he helps people notice what keeps a problem going, try small changes, and build coping skills for stressful moments. For anger this means learning to recognize triggers, practicing calming skills, and testing different responses in everyday situations.
Martin describes his work as straightforward and respectful. He asks questions, listens, and plans next steps together with each person. To begin he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the See online therapy options button.
How his approaches translate to online work
Martin commonly uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities, with the therapist listening and reflecting so the client can clarify goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and uses practical exercises to test new ways of responding to triggers.He also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills when needed to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills help people manage strong feelings, including anger, and practice different responses in real life. Choosing which approaches to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will review needs, goals, and preferences and agree on which methods to try together.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit is hard to arrange. If video or phone sessions are available, they can support steady practice of skills between meetings and make regular follow-up simpler for people balancing busy lives.
