Questions from Orange County clients.
Is there an office in Orange County?
No. Every session is by secure video from anywhere in California, so there is no drive to Newport or Irvine and no waiting room.
Can I do sessions from work in Irvine?
Yes, from any private room where you can speak freely. A closed office door or a parked car both work.
Does my company plan or EAP see anything?
No. Nothing is billed to insurance or an employer program, so there is no claim and no report to anyone.
Why $400 when OC therapists who take insurance charge less?
You are paying for Martha herself, every session, with no insurer in the record and no waitlist. The fee is the same for everyone.
If it can't wait for a session
Call or text 988, or OC Links, 24/7.
Martha's practice is not a crisis service. Both lines are free and answered around the clock. In an emergency, call 911.

Fees, with context
What $400 actually buys.
One fee for everyone, private pay only, the first session and every one after. Here is what is in it.
- 01
Martha, every session
The clinical co-founder of a private-pay network, and the only clinician in this practice. The person you book is the person you see, never an associate.
- 02
Nothing filed
No insurer and no diagnosis code sent to a payer, so there is nothing an employer, a studio or a licensing board can request from one.
- 03
Either language
Fully clinical in English and Spanish, with the same depth in both, switching whenever you do.
- 04
