She brings long-term experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, motivation struggles, and self-esteem work, and she has worked with people affected by cancer for 21 years.

Her practice emphasizes the client as the expert of their own story, and she seeks to build on each person s strengths to help them move through difficulties. She combines empathy with practical strategies to address issues such as coping with life changes, grief, burnout, and attention challenges, while also offering coaching to clarify goals and direction.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client s lead, helping people explore their values and strengths to find solutions that feel authentic. This approach is often helpful for issues like self-esteem, life purpose, and navigating major life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, panic, and depression and improve daily functioning. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people and couples deepen emotional awareness and improve communication to heal relationship patterns and resolve attachment concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Anmarie will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she will adapt techniques from these approaches to fit the individual s situation rather than applying a single method rigidly.

Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to access care from different locations. These formats allow licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent support and practical strategies while accommodating scheduling needs and communication preferences.
