Anne (Annie) Harton Kassell, LMFT - Therapist in Indiana

About Anne

Anne (Annie) Harton Kassell is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, and family concerns. She works from Indiana and brings nine years of clinical experience to conversations about everyday pressures and family strain. Annie aims to make therapy feel straightforward and usable for people who are tired of feeling stuck.

She centers work around each person’s strengths and lived story. Sessions are conversational and down-to-earth.

Background and approach

The therapist listens first, then helps identify small steps that can ease tension and improve communication. Annie draws on several evidence-based approaches to shape the work. She uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early bonds affect present relationships.

She also uses Client-Centered methods to keep the client’s goals at the forefront, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address anxious thoughts and habits. In sessions she helps people name what’s most troubling and then tries out practical ways to change patterns. That can include trying new communication skills, shifting thinking habits, or exploring family history to understand current conflicts.

Her tone is supportive and focused on what clients want to change. Therapy can start with a conversation about immediate concerns and grow into a plan for lasting change. Annie supports people through both short-term problem solving and longer work on recurring issues.

She aims to make progress feel manageable and real.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they react in close relationships and try new ways of connecting that feel safer and more satisfying. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear steps to change anxious or unhelpful thinking and to build different habits that reduce stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will talk through goals, try methods that fit the client’s needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. That collaborative process helps make sure the chosen strategies match what the client wants to achieve.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to create flexibility. These formats let clients fit therapy into busy days, revisit notes from sessions, or use shorter check-ins when needed. For many people, remote sessions make it easier to get consistent support and to apply what they learn between meetings.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
