Hello! My name is Laura Martin and I’m the owner and counselor at Blue Hills Counseling & Consultation, LLC. Blue Hills is a private mental health counseling practice located in Paintsville, KY, that offers 1:1 counseling to individuals aged 16 and up.
My goal as a therapist is to help people feel more grounded, resilient, and confident in their own strengths. I provide a safe, supportive space where you can share openly, and together we’ll develop a treatment plan that fits your needs using proven, evidence-based approaches.
I take an integrative approach to therapy, drawing from cognitive-behavioral strategies, neuroscience, and practical skills-based interventions. With CBT, we’ll look at how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected and find ways to make meaningful changes. I also use neuroscience-informed tools to strengthen emotional regulation and resilience, which is especially helpful for challenges like anxiety, depression, burnout, or perfectionism.
The relationship we build is at the heart of the work. I focus on respect, compassion, and non-judgment, meeting you where you are and moving at a pace that feels right for you. Education and structure are also key parts of my style. I want you to leave sessions with both insight and concrete strategies you can use right away. Sometimes that means learning new coping skills, and other times it means taking small, practical steps forward through behavioral activation.
Overall, my approach is collaborative, supportive, and action-oriented. I aim to help you better regulate your emotions, build self-awareness, and create sustainable change that improves your daily life.
This is a solo practice. When you reach out, you’re speaking directly with me—the person who will work with you. There’s no receptionist or clinical team. Please be patient with me; I try to return messages within 48 business hours.
I currently accept commercial Anthem, commercial Optum, and commercial United Healthcare plans. I am able to accept commercial Aetna and Cigna through Headway. For all other plans, I am not in network and offer private-pay options. Fees are listed on my services page.
I focus exclusively on treating adults and teens and do not accept every type of case. If your needs fall outside my training or clinical scope, I’ll be happy to point you toward other trusted resources in the community.
