I graduated from the program a month ago and I am doing much better! Martin was a huge help. I was working with another CBT therapist prior to working with Martin and my situation got worse with him so I thought CBT wouldn’t work for me and I was incredibly hopeless. Luckily I decided to work with Martin. Martin’s techniques worked and within a few weeks I was already seeing a difference. Martin’s techniques are not rigid. He goes at a pace that you are comfortable with, he answers your questions, he reassures you, and it is clear that he cares about his client. I realized it’s not just about the techniques themselves but about how they are being taught. I recommend Martin 100%!

Hello Martin!
This time around the difference was the technique you shared with me. I kept practicing it every time the negative sleep thoughts came and they came very often. Overtime, they became less and less intense. The techniques which were helpful were the “dropping the anchor” and focusing on the present moment and accepting the current situation as it is. It sounds counter intuitive to accept things as they are when they are not good but it works! And the main thing is not to compare with the success of others and to focus only on yourself. Just keep going and keep practicing the techniques because eventually they will work. The sleep restriction also helped and it helped that you were not so rigid with me about the sleep restriction and you worked with me and my individual requirements. Also, you answered all of my questions and reassured me which was so helpful especially in the beginning when I thought I would never get better. Thank you so much Martin!
Thank YOU so much for sharing! You did all the hard work and committed to ongoing practice, Kat — I was merely your observing guide!
