Therapists in Florida

Hey! My name is Martha Fenimore and I have enjoyed working as a licensed therapist for over 25 years. Having been educated with a Social Work background has taught me how to see every person as an individual who is influenced by family, work, sexuality, health, stage of life, finances, and social supports, to name a few. Identifying these influences helps both of us better understand the reason for your coming to therapy and possible obstacles getting in your way. In my career as a therapist, I have worked with a variety of individual, families, and groups. We have tackled numerous subjects including self-esteem, sexuality, trauma, family of origin influences, relationships, depression, anxiety, career development, goal clarification, etc. I enjoy helping clients identify their healthy coping skills and teaching them new ones. My clients describe me as a good listener who is knowledgeable, encouraging, and non-judgmental. If I am the kind of therapist you are looking for, please feel free to contact me at any time. I check my emails throughout the day and will respond to you as soon as I am able. Please be aware that I do not go by the Better Help schedule, so give me possible times you are available and I'll pick something good for us both. Thank-you for your consideration. Martha Fenimore, LCSW

Welcome to BetterHelp! My name is Madeline Berry and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been providing therapy for wide variety of issues and populations for approximately 5 years. I graduated from New York University in 2014 with a Master's in Social Work, and I also hold a Master's in Experimental Psychology from St. John's University. At the beginning of my career, I worked for a NYC hospital system providing mental health support and therapy to adults, families, women, and teenagers. I worked mostly in the Maternal Child Health Department of the hospital, providing therapy and support to women who were pregnant, post-partum, families who had babies in the NICU, etc; however, often assisted in pediatrics, the general medical unit, and the emergency department. For the last two years, I have worked in a primary care clinic, providing short-term counseling to adults who struggle with, but not limited to stress, depression, anxiety, chronic medical conditions, new medical diagnosis', etc. Since the Covid-19 pandemic, I have had the opportunity to provide adults with mental health support and counseling virtually, and also hosted a virtual support group for those struggling with the effects of the pandemic. I would describe my approach as collaborative, goal-oriented, and client-centered. I use a wide-variety of therapeutic methods and modules, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Problem-solving Therapy to meet the client where they are, and to also provide them with the tools and coping skills that work best for them. I believe that therapy is a team approach, between a therapist and their client, to help the client reach their goals and develop healthier skills, tools, and habits. Reaching out for help can be scary and leave us feeling vulnerable. I hope to help you feel comfortable, and confident to work toward your goals, as well as feel supported through the process. I look forward to working with you!

Hello, my name is Gail Amalfitano. I am a licensed mental health counselor. I have specialized in trauma, mood disturbances, and in substance. I am trained in EMDR. I have broad experience as a psychotherapist. I love working with individuals, and families. I also have experience with anxiety, depression, bipolar, codependency, negative thinking styles, phase of life, adjustment issues, self-esteem, social anxiety, feeling stuck, conflicts in relationships, loss of a sense of self, and other issues we face in life that can be confusing or just make us question our own perspectives. I love the work I do! I am completely invested in helping you feel better and find resolution to whatever issue may be a barrier to your sense of happiness. I am person-centered in my approach. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, brief therapy, positive psychology and solution-focused techniques. I am flexible in my approach as there is no one-size-fits-all approach to counseling. I provide reading material, video clips, handouts, and also recommend some self help articles or websites to help increase knowledge for my clients to learn about the topic or area for which they need help. I believe knowledge is empowering and learning is a life-long process that enhances our ability to tolerate life and learn about ourself. For me, counseling starts out with gathering information from the client that can help shed light on the issues. From there, we talk. I believe that counseling is part listening, part problem solving, part empowering and validating the individual, and part teaching which we call psychoeducation. I am flexible in my approach and for some individuals they might need more of some parts and less of other parts. This is fine and with honest communication, I adjust to meet my client's needs. Counseling is an adaptable process that evolves over time and as the individual's needs change or evolve. It is a journey unique to each individual. I am nonjudgmental, empathetic, supportive, and I have lots of understanding. I realize it takes great courage to reach out to another person and trust is paramount. You can be sure I will treat you with respect and value your trust! I also value your feedback and your requests. I look forward to walking WITH YOU on your journey! No issue is too big or too small. I can be there for you to listen, to offer ideas, or provide support and validation. I believe in possibilities, options, and solutions. I am passionate about this work and I am happy to share my enthusiasm, hope, and inspiration with you. Let's get started, together, in finding the answers that you need! I look forward to talking with you and working with you! Please keep in mind finding the right therapist is important and requires exploring method, approach and style. It is not bad or good.
