Hello! I received my Masters degrees in Marriage & Family Law and in Counseling Psychology. I am passionate about working with couples, children and families. I dedicated my first five years of counseling careers to working with young children and their families in the community mental health setting. I took a mini-break to attend to my own family then made a career shift to focus on working with couples in conflicts- I was hired as a court-appointed mediator. I continue learning and expand my tool bag. After joining the Bay Area ADHD Center, I developed ADHD treatment and executive function coaching as another specialty of mine. Now I want to give all my educational, professional, and personal experiences to my clients in the form of my own private practice. I am calm, wise, compassionate in front of conflicts and complicated relationship situations. I am specialized in working with VERY DIFFERENT couples (neurotypical-neurodivergent couples, interracial/mixed cultural background couples, and high-conflict couples), parent-child re-bonding, and complicated family dynamics. Healing is hard work, but you don't have to do it alone. With the right support, you can laugh about the challenges in life while moving forward! Cheers, Yi Zhao Martins
