About Ann
Ann Marie Harty is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 10 years of clinical experience. She provides individual therapy for adults who are coping with anxiety, depression, stress, grief, caregiver strain, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. She also focuses on issues such as communication problems, multicultural concerns, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination.
Her approach is practical and conversational. Sessions use methods from Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), existential therapy, and mindfulness practices. She draws on these methods to help people notice patterns, name emotions, and try new ways of responding when old habits no longer work.
Ann Marie often works with caregivers and people facing aging and geriatric concerns, including those supporting people with neurocognitive disorders. She pays attention to cultural background and how it shapes coping, beliefs, and relationships. Her work includes addressing guilt, shame, isolation, and the strain that comes from caring for others.
In sessions, she uses straightforward conversation, guided reflection, and practical exercises people can try between meetings. Clients can expect to discuss what is happening now, how it connects to past experiences, and what small changes might make daily life more manageable.
She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first appointment. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies by location.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming emotions and attachment patterns. Online sessions can help people recognize recurring interaction styles and try different emotional responses in real time. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and the client's perspective; online meetings still center the person's concerns and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks worries and moods into actionable thoughts and behaviors to test and change; this work often includes practical exercises to practice between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then adjust methods as therapy progresses. That collaborative planning helps shape which tools are used and how sessions are structured.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce time spent traveling, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. These practical benefits help people try therapy alongside work, caregiving, or other daily responsibilities.
