About Martha
Martha Fenimore is a licensed clinical social worker who uses a client-centered approach to help people untangle stress, anger, anxiety, and relationship strain. She emphasizes clear listening and practical discussion so people can notice what’s getting in the way of their wellbeing and take small steps forward. With 39 years of experience, Martha draws on several methods to meet different needs.
She combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques to spot thought patterns that keep problems going.
Background and approach
She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at long-standing patterns and solution-focused strategies to set achievable goals. Martha often helps people who feel overwhelmed by mood issues, grief, or life changes. She supports those dealing with trauma, parenting strain, LGBT concerns, and career stress.
Anger and communication problems are also a focus, and she works with people managing symptoms of ADHD, bipolar mood patterns, and seasonal affective shifts. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Martha listens first, then helps people try new ways of thinking and behaving.
She encourages practical steps clients can test between sessions and adjusts her approach as needs change. Originally from Florida, Martha works with English-speaking clients and accepts international clients. She offers multiple session formats so people can choose what fits their schedule and routine.

Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a supportive relationship so clients can explore what matters most to them. This approach helps when someone feels stuck by stress, low self-esteem, or relationship strain because sessions start with the person’s own priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions that can be changed with practice. It works well for anxiety, anger, mood concerns, and coping with life changes by giving simple exercises and experiments to try between sessions.
Martha treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with clients about their goals and try methods that match their needs. Together they decide whether to focus more on short-term solutions, exploring past patterns, or learning new behaviors.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video is useful when visual connection helps the work, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or brief notes during a busy day. These options make it easier to keep regular sessions and stay consistent with the therapeutic plan.
