About Ann
Ann Marie Harty is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with ten years of clinical experience. She provides individual therapy for adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, caregiver strain, grief, and self-esteem concerns. She also focuses on issues such as aging and geriatric concerns, multicultural challenges, and the emotional impact of caregiving.
Her approach is practical and conversational. She draws on client-centered work and mindfulness to slow things down, and uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns. Sessions are intended to be straightforward talks about what is causing distress and what small, manageable changes could help.
Ann Marie aims to help people untangle cultural and societal messages that get in the way of seeking help. She pays particular attention to the needs of African American and Caribbean adults who want to rethink learned behaviors and reduce stigma around mental health. Her work includes attention to prejudice, discrimination, and multicultural stressors.
In session she mixes reflective listening with goal-focused steps. That can mean learning coping skills for anxiety, planning for caregiver demands, or addressing loneliness and isolation. She also supports people facing life transitions and questions about life purpose.
Her practice uses evidence-informed methods like mindfulness, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused ideas, and existential questions to help people make clearer choices and feel less overwhelmed.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. Online sessions can still be a space where the therapist reflects emotions and priorities, helping clarify what feels most urgent. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to change thinking and behavior. In virtual sessions CBT tools like thought records, activity planning, and behavioral experiments can be reviewed and adjusted together to manage anxiety and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ann Marie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and practical constraints. That may mean combining mindfulness practices with CBT steps, or using emotionally-focused techniques when relationship feelings are central. The choice is reviewed as therapy progresses so adjustments can be made.
