Paola Martinez, LCSW
I was born in Mexico and raised in sunny San Diego, California. My indigenous roots led me to focus on mental health and inner work during my college years and found a calling to help others in their life journey. As a graduate of the University of Utah, I have been a social worker since 2016. Most of my experience has been working with youth, families, domestic violence survivors and women's health care.

As a therapist, I had the privilege of working in community mental health care, residential treatment centers, school social work and non-profit organizations. My experience has been unique and encouraging, I have walked with clients through trauma, pain, victories, happiness and many other seasons of life. I value you as a person and as a client, I believe in creating a safe/brave space to be your full self and grow to be proud of who you are. I look forward to working with you!
