About Anne
Anne Rufiange uses practical, evidence-based approaches to help people manage relationship and behavior concerns. She is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - LMFT practicing in Florida with 25 years of experience.
Background and approach
Anne focuses on clear goals and steady progress in sessions. Many people come to her for help with addictions and anger.
She also supports individuals who are dealing with family tension, parenting stress, and communication problems. Anne listens without judgment and tailors the work to each persons situation.
Her sessions aim to identify patterns that get in the way and to build concrete skills. That can include strategies for handling strong emotions, tools for talking about difficult topics, and steps to reduce harmful behaviors.
She explains suggestions in plain language so they are easy to try between sessions. Anne can also assist people who have had problems with stalking or domestic violence and those who have caused domestic harm.
In these situations she focuses on accountability, safety planning, and reducing risk while working toward lasting change. She approaches therapy with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
Anne helps clients set realistic short-term goals and supports them as they practice new ways of coping. Small changes in day-to-day habits are emphasized to build steadier progress over time.
Evidence-based approaches and online support
Anne uses well-established, evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on real-life change. One approach helps people recognize and change patterns that feed addictive behaviors and harmful responses; it teaches step-by-step strategies to reduce risky actions and manage urges. Another approach addresses anger and communication by teaching emotion regulation skills, safer ways to express needs, and techniques for de-escalating conflicts.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try different methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This means sessions are shaped around the client's needs and preferences rather than a fixed program.
Online therapy offers several practical advantages. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions can fit into a work break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging make it possible to check in more often, send brief updates, or handle quick struggles between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and to practice new skills in day-to-day life.
