About Anne-Marie

Anne-Marie Cline is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and issues related to LGBT identity. She speaks plainly and offers a steady, respectful presence for people who feel worried or overwhelmed. Her style aims to make it easier to say what’s on your mind and start practical steps toward feeling better.

She builds sessions around openness and nonjudgmental listening. Conversations focus on understanding what matters to each person and finding realistic ways to cope. That can mean looking at patterns in relationships, practicing new ways to communicate, or learning simple tools to manage anxiety in the moment.

Over a decade of work in Hawaii has given her experience with caregiving stress, family conflict, addictions, depression, and issues like jealousy and attachment concerns. She also supports people dealing with body image, codependency, and the effects of trauma or disaster. This background helps her spot common traps people fall into and offer alternatives.

Her approach draws on several well-known methods, including Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She combines these to match what a person needs in a given session rather than following a single script.

Starting therapy begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and arrangements are scheduled according to therapist availability. Sessions are offered in English and Anne-Marie is based in Hawaii.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current feelings and reactions. In simple terms it helps people notice connection patterns and try different responses when relationships feel triggering. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s experience at the center of sessions, with the therapist listening closely and reflecting what is said to help the person find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and relationship worry.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their concerns, goals, and comfort level. That can mean mixing approaches across sessions and adjusting techniques based on how things go.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, avoid long commutes, and pick quieter times for checking in. It can also let people practice new skills between meetings and bring real-life relationship examples into discussion. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches so therapy feels practical and connected to everyday life.
