STATE FIVE | Michele San Martin, LPC

STATE FIVE empowers overwhelmed parents and caregivers—especially those in underserved communities—by delivering evidence-based digital tools that reduce stress, strengthen emotional connection, and break barriers of geography and stigma. Our mission is to make transformative emotional wellness resources accessible for every family, no matter where they are. Founded by Michele San Martin, LPC, after 20+ years of private practice, STATE FIVE brings clinical compassion and global vision to accessible mental health innovation. Our proudest achievement to date: launching ParentGuide, our first web-based behavioral health tool. ParentGuide empowers parents to decode their child’s behavior, manage stress, and strengthen connection at home—all through a scalable, clinician-designed digital platform. This launch proves that psychology and technology can come together beautifully to support families at scale.
