About Martha

Martha Fenimore is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 39 years of experience helping people sort through stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma and abuse. She focuses on practical steps people can use to feel steadier and more in control. Martha listens closely and aims to be encouraging and nonjudgmental in sessions.

Her work often centers on everyday struggles like low self-esteem, relationship tensions, parenting stress, and grief. She also helps people dealing with anger, career changes, bipolar mood challenges, and compassion fatigue. Martha pays attention to how past family patterns and cultural background shape current problems.

She draws on several approaches to meet each person where they are. Client-centered work keeps the conversation grounded in the person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, while Internal Family Systems invites people to understand different parts of themselves.

Martha has supported people through adoption and foster care issues, abandonment concerns, codependency, and communication breakdowns. She also addresses postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, and issues around intimacy and life purpose. Her experience includes work with diverse cultural and LGBT concerns.

Based in Florida, she offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Martha often uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the person's priorities and strengths. This approach means sessions are paced by the client and the therapist follows what matters most to them.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and functioning. CBT is useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and some mood symptoms because it offers practical exercises people can try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be a collaborative effort. Martha will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life, and she adjusts the plan as progress or new challenges emerge.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss format preferences during the matching process to choose what works best for your schedule and needs.
