About Marsha
Marsha Oxamendi is a Florida licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 14 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, and related issues. She also works with people facing intimacy-related concerns, sleep problems, career transitions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Her approach is practical and direct. Sessions focus on clear goals and skills people can use between meetings. She draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered techniques to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.
Marsha has provided counseling in a variety of settings over her career. That has included work with people in criminal justice contexts, group anger management, dialysis patients, veterans and their families in hospice care, and pregnant and postpartum women. This range shapes a down-to-earth style that values everyday coping and problem solving.
In sessions she helps people talk through difficult feelings, set achievable steps, and practice concrete skills for managing symptoms. She aims to reduce overwhelm and increase practical functioning at work, home, and in relationships.
Marsha earned a Master of Social Work from Florida State University in 2010 and holds a Florida LCSW. For people outside the United States she accepts international clients; sessions are conducted in English.
BHow sessions work
How Marsha uses different approaches in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect their values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying specific exercises to change behavior and mood, which is useful for stress, depression, and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotional patterns in relationships and communication and can help with intimacy-related difficulties and improving connection.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past. That collaborative process guides whether sessions emphasize skills, emotional processing, or values-guided action.
Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know which options are possible. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when life is hectic. It can also allow sessions without being on camera if that helps someone engage more comfortably. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for virtual meetings so practical skills are practiced between sessions.
