About Martin
Martin Stubbs is a counsellor with 15 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. He supports people who are dealing with relationship strain, family conflict, grief and loss, depression, ADHD and eating concerns. He aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and respectful.
Martin keeps sessions straightforward and conversational. He works to build an atmosphere where people can speak honestly about difficult feelings. He avoids judgment and listens for the issues that matter most in everyday life.
Background and approach
In sessions he helps people name what is painful and find practical ways to move forward. Conversations can cover how past relationships shape current patterns, how grief affects day-to-day functioning, or strategies to manage low mood. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the person in front of him.
People often come with mixed concerns, such as family problems alongside eating or attachment issues. Martin draws on his experience to untangle linked stresses and set achievable goals. He pays attention to communication habits and emotional triggers that keep problems repeating.
Therapy can be arranged by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Sessions run via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and cost varies by location and therapist availability. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled according to availability.

Online support
Another approach used in his work explores attachment and relational patterns to improve communication and reduce repeated conflicts. This is useful for people who notice the same problems arising across relationships or within family dynamics.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to set goals and try methods that fit their needs, adjusting the plan as progress is made. Conversations in early sessions help decide what feels most useful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues when that helps, while phone sessions can work better when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit those who prefer writing between sessions or want more frequent brief contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and daily life.
