About Martin
Martin Levenson is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with nine years of practice in Massachusetts. He works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and challenges related to autism spectrum conditions. He also supports transgender, agender, and non-binary people facing life stressors and identity-related concerns.
He starts by listening and mapping out what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on practical steps to reduce reactivity, manage workplace pressure, and rebuild confidence. Conversations are direct and goal-oriented, with attention to what clients already do well.
Martin uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood problems, difficulties with impulse control, and co-occurring issues such as addiction or relationship strain. He helps people spot patterns that lead to angry outbursts and build skills to interrupt those patterns. The work may include skill practice between sessions so changes carry over into daily life.
He has experience supporting people through grief, trauma, parenting stresses, and major life transitions. He also works with issues like panic, social anxiety, and body image concerns. When needed, he collaborates with other providers to coordinate care.

How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Martin uses evidence-based techniques that focus on skill building and behavior change. One common approach focuses on identifying triggers and changing unhelpful reactions through repeated practice. That helps with sudden anger, work stress, and moments when emotions escalate quickly.Another approach emphasizes mood regulation and coping strategies for anxiety and depression. It teaches concrete tools to reduce nervousness, manage panic moments, and lower baseline stress so anger is less likely to flare.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, symptoms, and daily routines. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked and new challenges come up.

They can also let people use quieter surroundings, keep a regular schedule around work, and practice skills in real-life settings between meetings.
