About Anne
Anne (Annie) Harton Kassell is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with nine years of clinical experience in Indiana. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, and family conflict. She works directly with clients to identify practical steps they can try between sessions.
Her approach treats clients as the experts on their own lives while offering structured ways to notice and change unhelpful patterns. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to track thoughts and behaviors, and attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. She also draws on client-centered techniques to keep sessions focused on the client's priorities.
In sessions she helps people map out specific problems, test small changes, and track what works. Conversations are concrete and action-oriented, with time set aside for planning and reviewing progress. She pays attention to how communication patterns affect relationships and offers tools to improve everyday interactions.
She has worked with concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, family of origin issues, and isolation or loneliness. She also supports people facing money and financial stress, midlife questions, and struggles around life purpose.
Clients who prefer clear steps and measurable goals will find a practical focus. Her practice combines problem-solving methods with attention to emotional responses. Prospective clients should complete the initial matching questionnaire to begin scheduling a first session.
How chosen approaches translate to online sessions
Anne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety and stress, then helps clients test small experiments to change those patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationship experiences influence current reactions and to develop new ways of relating in close connections.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Anne will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She discusses options, tries approaches, and adjusts plans based on what is helpful and practical.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Ask about session options during the matching questionnaire so arrangements match scheduling and communication preferences.
