Anne Harton, LMFTA
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

I believe that all people are created in God’s image and that we are given the gift of one another in community to love and support us through our daily journey. Our most significant communities include marital and family relationships. We are part of a system that forms and challenges us. I am here to hear your story and hold the hope for you until you can pick it back up again. I believe in a God of love, life, joy, mercy, and grace. I am especially interested in the topic of forgiveness and the impact of emotions.
My therapy of choice for couples is Emotion Focused Therapy, as it is the therapy most supported by research. I also use narrative therapy to help the client name and externalize a problem as they tell, retell, and re-author their stories. I often counsel from an approach integrating family systems with person-centered, narrative, and experiential therapies. Using the Bio-Psycho-Social framework for assessment provides guidance to all parts of the self: spiritual, physical, and emotional. As a Catholic Christian with a background in theology, I am willing and able to integrate faith in sessions at the client’s request.
