LMHC, 3 years of experience
I am a licensed mental health counselor with five years of experience. I understand that navigating your mental health can be both challenging and empowering. Whether you seek guidance through a life transition or want to decrease anxious thoughts, I will support you at every step. My approach is rooted in empathy, devoid of judgment, and focused on fostering acceptance of where you are while encouraging growth.
During the initial sessions, we will craft a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs to help you regain your life. As clients attend regular sessions, most begin to see improvement in symptoms within the first month.
I have years of experience with children, teens, and adults and have been exposed to a wide range of therapeutic skills and styles. My superpower is my empathetic approach and crafting sessions devoid of judgment while focusing on fostering acceptance.
I enjoy working with young adult clients in life transitions, helping them manage their anxiety while building their self-esteem and developing their identity.
Clients can expect to take away a range of valuable insights, skills, and personal growth from their sessions with me. Here are some key outcomes and goals that I typically set with clients: emotion homework that enhances self-awareness and emotional regulation, communication skills that increase self-esteem, and interpersonal skills. I also introduce a variety of coping skills to help increase resiliency and provide empowerment in my clients' lives.
I integrate ACT techniques to help clients develop mindfulness skills, clarify their values, and commit to meaningful actions aligned with them. I often begin by assisting clients to understand the concept of psychological flexibility and its role in their emotional well-being. This involves exploring their relationship with their thoughts and emotions and teaching them mindfulness techniques to observe these experiences without judgment.
I help clients learn to understand the basis of their emotions, particularly those related to threat and self-criticism, and develop skills to respond to themselves and others with kindness and understanding. Through various techniques such as compassionate imagery, mindfulness, and cognitive restructuring, clients gradually build a compassionate mindset, which fosters emotional healing and resilience.

I was referred to Molly by my PCP. I knew from the first visit she was the perfect therapist for me. She is warm and kind and I left that first day knowing things were going to change for the better, and they have. She is the help I never knew I always needed.

Molly is a great listener that takes the time to really understand the client. I appreciate the way she challenges me during and post sessions; especially when she encourages me to communicate and find the words rather than just saying “I don’t know.” She is very insightful and it sometimes catches me off guard when she provides a very accurate read of a person or situation I’ve shared with her. I love that she wants to do what’s best for the client, no matter her personal beliefs or bias.

I felt for the first time in a long time some hope. I felt at ease with Molly.
