Anne Marie Sales

Anne Marie Sales is a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing in Florida. She draws on 24 years of clinical experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and coping with life changes. Her approach is warm and interactive, and she focuses on helping clients set clear goals and take practical steps toward them.

She works with people facing substance use concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, sexual issues such as sex addiction, ADHD-related challenges, and career or work stress. Sessions often mix talking and problem-solving to address immediate concerns and build new skills over time.

Anne Marie uses Client-Centered Therapy to make space for each person's experience and to strengthen self-directed change. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking and develop different ways of responding. Solution-Focused and Systemic ideas shape short-term goals and look at how relationships and systems influence daily life.

Her style is conversational and action-oriented. She helps clients craft plans they can try between sessions and adjusts strategies based on what works. The aim is manageable steps rather than abstract theory.

Reaching out for support can feel hard, and she says it is okay to start slowly. Prospective clients are invited to begin with a short matching process and then schedule a time that fits their needs.

How these approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening carefully and reflecting what matters to the person. Online sessions can use that same stance to help people feel heard and to clarify personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it works well for anxiety, depression, and stress by giving simple tools to practice between meetings.

Choosing an approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals and daily life. That might mean trying CBT techniques for a few weeks, then adding solution-focused steps to tackle a specific problem. Clients and the therapist adjust the plan as they learn what helps.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Video or phone options can also be chosen for reasons like lower bandwidth needs, a quieter setting, or a quicker appointment during a lunch break. The focus is on practical ways to make therapy fit everyday life rather than on a single format.
