About Martha

Martha Fenimore is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 39 years of experience who centers her practice on helping people identify unhelpful patterns that affect their wellbeing.

Background and approach

She blends empathy with practical strategies to explore issues such as stress, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma and abuse, and ADHD while attending to identity and relational concerns including LGBT matters, intimacy, and family dynamics. Her background includes work with individuals, families, and groups, bringing a breadth of clinical exposure to each conversation.

Using a collaborative, client-focused attitude, she supports exploration of self-esteem, depression, grief, and life transitions, as well as more specific challenges like postpartum depression, seasonal mood shifts, and career or parenting questions. Martha integrates evidence-based techniques alongside psychodynamic insight to address underlying patterns and immediate coping needs.

She accepts international clients and offers sessions from Florida, with availability currently limited to Mondays. Prospective clients are invited to reach out and inquire about scheduling and fit with her approach.

Approach-Based Online Therapy and Flexible Care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive stance in which the therapist follows the client's concerns and supports self-discovery; this approach helps people increase self-awareness, improve self-esteem, and make choices that align with their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through concrete strategies and skill building, which can be especially useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood regulation. Psychodynamic therapy explores patterns that developed over time and how past experiences influence present relationships, offering insight into recurring struggles and deeper emotional themes.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the therapeutic process and is addressed collaboratively. The therapist works with each person to consider goals, personal preferences, and the types of change they seek, then tailors sessions to blend techniques that make the most sense for the client's needs.

Online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to connect from different locations. These options provide flexibility for scheduling, allow for ongoing support between meetings, and enable continuity of care for clients who travel or live outside the therapist's immediate area.
