About Meredith

Meredith Fiedler is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 13 years of experience as a therapist and more than 20 years in mental health and substance use settings. She works with adults 18 and older on mood disorders, anxiety, addiction, trauma, stress management, self-esteem problems, and broader life concerns. Meredith also supports people exploring life purpose and navigating major life changes.

Her practice centers on what the person brings to the session. She starts by listening to the client’s goals and current struggles. From there she draws on a few focused approaches to help people test new ways of coping and solve immediate problems.

Meredith uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client’s concerns and priorities, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to examine thinking and behavior patterns, and Motivational Interviewing to support change when people feel stuck. She also includes Mindfulness and Solution-Focused techniques when they fit the goals of a client.

Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented, with attention to the person’s strengths and circumstances. Meredith commonly helps people address stress, grief, relationship concerns, addiction, and work or career questions. She works with issues such as codependency, guilt and shame, compulsions, and feelings of emptiness.

She provides services in Florida and conducts work in English. International clients are not currently accepted. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Meredith frequently draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the person’s priorities and listening closely to what matters most to them. CBT looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and helps people try different actions to change how they feel. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and support coping with stress and anxiety.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Meredith will review a person’s concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That choice is revisited as progress is made so the plan stays practical and relevant.

The therapist’s biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or offering options that do not require being on camera. Licensed professionals can use these formats to help people manage mood, anxiety, addiction recovery work, and questions about life purpose while balancing day-to-day responsibilities.
