About Anne
Anne Marie Sales is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Florida with 24 years of experience. She works with adults who are managing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger, substance concerns, and other life transitions. She meets people where they're at and focuses on practical steps to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.
Her approach blends client-centered conversation with goal-focused techniques. Sessions are interactive - she talks things through with clients and helps them build simple plans for change. This often includes looking at thoughts and behaviors, testing small changes, and tracking what works over time.
Anne Marie has worked across community mental health settings and in substance use services. That background means she is familiar with both individual and group work, and with practical tools for coping with stress, addiction concerns, and grief. She draws on systemic ideas when relationships or roles affect a person's difficulties.
When anger is a concern, she helps people notice triggers, practice new responses, and set clearer boundaries. For relationship tension she focuses on communication patterns and small, repeatable shifts that reduce escalation. For work or career stress she emphasizes problem-solving and realistic coping strategies.
Expect straightforward sessions that mix conversation with action steps. Clients leave with concrete homework and brief plans to try between visits. To begin, the process starts by completing the intake questionnaire and scheduling the first session.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy is about listening and reflecting. It focuses on the client's priorities and helps people make their own decisions. This approach suits worries about relationships, self-esteem, and life changes where understanding personal goals matters.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors. It teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, anger, and mood shifts by testing small behavioral changes and practicing different thinking patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaboratively decide which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences, and adjust the plan as progress is reviewed.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and reduce travel time. They also allow shorter check-ins when helpful and make it possible to try techniques during everyday routines. Confirm the current session format options before booking so arrangements match practical needs.
