Martina Ricards Marks, Big Sky Wellness
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW, RYT200, Reiki Practitioner Level I & II
Hi there! I'm Martina, a dedicated, heart-led practitioner on a mission to guide you toward holistic well-being. I know what it feels like to be trapped inside harmful thoughts and behaviors - wishing for change, but confused on where to start. My professional practice was born out of a personal revolution to find healing, truth, and authenticity. I’m excited to share the education and real-life experiences that helped me return home to myself.
Since 2016, I’ve served as a clinician, supervisor, and director. After becoming a mother to a tenacious little girl in 2022, I leaned more into my power than ever. My daughter taught me to move with intention, feel appreciation for the littlest of things, and unapologetically follow my passions. Big Sky Wellness was born from her influence.
It is my promise to embrace the same principles of self-care and continual growth that I advocate for in my practice. Outside of Big Sky, you'll find me in the wild, with dirt on my feet and sun on my skin. I come alive sleeping under the stars, wading in waterfalls, and on the back of a Harley. I’ll lose myself in yummy food and sunsets.
If you're ready to embark on a journey toward holistic well-being, where empathy, curiosity, and self-discovery are the guiding forces, I invite you to reach out. Together, we'll create a therapeutic space that honors your individuality and supports your transformative growth.

Dharele Lewis
Therapist, LLMSW, EMDR-Trained
I help adults who are carrying quiet pressure like anxiety, overwhelm, identity shifts, grief, or emotional exhaustion and need a space that feels real, safe, and collaborative. My style is warm, direct, and culturally attuned. I believe therapy works best when you don’t have to shrink yourself or explain away your lived experiences.
In our work, we explore what’s happening beneath the surface, strengthen what’s already resilient in you, and build practical tools that support long-term change. I blend cognitive, somatic, and narrative approaches to help you understand your patterns and reconnect with parts of yourself you’ve had to put on pause to survive.
If you’re looking for a therapist who shows up with honesty, respect, and curiosity and who treats you like a whole person, not a diagnosis then I’d be honored to support your process.
