Martha Fenimore

Martha Fenimore is a licensed clinical social worker with 39 years of experience helping people untangle stress, anxiety, trauma, and mood concerns. She focuses on practical steps clients can use to feel steadier and clearer about their next move. Martha brings a calm, listening presence and encourages honest, straightforward conversation.

Clients work with Martha to name patterns that reduce wellbeing and to spot obstacles to greater contentment. She helps people who are coping with depression, bipolar mood changes, grief, and compassion fatigue. Career questions, relationship struggles, parenting stress, and issues around identity and sexuality are also part of her practice.

Her approach draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s goals and pace. Martha uses cognitive behavioral ideas to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also integrates psychodynamic and internal family systems perspectives to look at deeper patterns when that fits a client’s needs.

Sessions tend to be conversational and practical. Martha works with clients on skills for emotion regulation, improving communication, and setting boundaries. She supports exploration of life purpose, grief, and family-of-origin issues in ways that connect to daily life.

Martha practices in Florida and offers services in English. She accepts international clients. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and schedule according to her availability.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Martha uses client-centered therapy to focus on what matters to each person. This approach means sessions start with the client’s goals and proceed at their pace, which helps with stress, relationship concerns, and questions about life direction.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT offers concrete tools for anxiety, depression, and coping with change, and those tools often fit well into remote sessions.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Martha will discuss which methods feel most helpful and adapt as work moves forward. Clients and therapist decide together based on needs, goals, and preferences.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for focused sessions during breaks or between commitments. It can also accommodate international scheduling for those outside the therapist’s state.
