About Anne-Marie

Anne-Marie Cline is a Hawaii-licensed LCSW with a decade of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or family conflicts. She emphasizes practical, collaborative work aimed at helping clients feel heard and build skills that fit their everyday lives.

Background and approach

Her practice includes attention to LGBT concerns, addiction, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and a range of interpersonal issues such as communication problems, codependency, and commitment worries. Her approach blends cognitive behavioral techniques with attachment-informed thinking and client-centered listening, along with mindfulness and motivational strategies to help clients notice patterns and try new ways of coping.

She often works with matters related to adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, body image and caregiver stress, as well as problems stemming from trauma, control issues, jealousy, and forgiveness. Anne-Marie creates a respectful, nonjudgmental space in which clients and she collaborate to set goals and practice concrete steps toward change.

Practical approaches and flexible online care

Anne-Marie often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more effective behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday difficulties. She also integrates attachment-based ideas to explore how early relational patterns influence current relationships and emotional responses, which can be especially helpful for communication problems, codependency, and family concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with each person to understand their priorities, testing techniques and adjusting strategies so therapy fits the client’s goals and preferences rather than expecting one fixed method to work for everyone.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for scheduling and for engaging in ways that feel most comfortable. This range of formats makes it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and life in Hawaii or elsewhere in the same time zone.
