Very pleasant and nice and listened to everything I had to say.
She was pleasant and kind and willing to listen to my concerns about my mental health.
I find Trina Martin to be very easy to talk to, as she has a nice way about her. She also is an excellent medication prescriber, and I trust her skills and judgment. I feel fortunate to be her patient.
Absolutely great experience. Trina's very welcoming and provides a good environment or complete honesty - never passes judgement. Most importantly, her knowledge of the mental and physical was great. Very smart and focuses on the whole patient.
Very kind and understanding. No judgement at all, and paid close attention/ referred back to things I mentioned during our appointment. I felt heard and comfortable.
Trina put me at ease at the first visit with her. I found her easy to talk to and look forward to our next session.
I found Trina to be very concerned about my issues. She was very professional and I found her easy to talk to.
Very satisfied with our first appt. Very thorough and patient, got to know my daughter and listened to my concerns.
Trina was wonderful!!! She was professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. She answered all my questions and made me very comfortable to share my story. She was the perfect person to start off my journey to better “me” health:)
Ms. Martin was very professional and compassionate. She listened to my concerns and addressed any questions I had. I look forward to starting therapy with this group.
I felt “heard” and understood
Trina Martin is a compassionate and understanding therapist. I was able to connect with her instantly and really feel like she is helping me through a very difficult time in my life. I’m so thankful for her and this practice! If you are looking for help with medication management you will be very happy with their expertise in this area!
