About Anne

Anne Marie Sales is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Florida who brings 24 years of clinical experience to her work. She has supported adults across a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, substance use, ADHD, grief, trauma, and life transitions.

Background and approach

Her background includes individual, family, and group work in community mental health and addiction settings, and she also addresses issues such as intimacy-related problems, parenting stress, career strain, and compassion fatigue. Her approach is warm and interactive, grounded in helping clients identify goals and build practical plans to reach them.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with client-centered and solution-focused techniques to help people change unhelpful thoughts, explore personal strengths, and develop actionable steps. Systemic perspectives inform her work with relational patterns and dynamics.

Clients who seek her support can expect a collaborative process that honors their capacity to learn and grow. She welcomes those ready to take steps toward change and stands ready to support them through conversations, problem-solving, and tailored interventions.

Approach-driven online therapy for practical change

Anne Marie blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her online work. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to support coping with life changes. Client-centered techniques prioritize the client's perspective and foster a supportive, nonjudgmental space for exploring goals and values.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients set clear objectives and develop immediate, actionable steps that move them toward those goals. These approaches suit concerns such as stress, relationship issues, substance use, grief, and intimacy-related problems by combining problem-solving with personal insight.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, preferences, and goals, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to schedule regular work around busy lives, maintain continuity during transitions, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for engaging in therapy.
