Are you experiencing anxiety, depression or life stress? Feeling overwhelmed? Perhaps you and your partner are at a communication impasse? If you’re ready to explore these parts of yourself and interrupt patterns that no longer serve, I can help with that. Therapy is a collaborative process which allows us to look at areas in your life that cause distress, and identify ways to adjust your thoughts and behaviors to create positive change. I provide therapy in a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you may feel comfortable expressing yourself openly and authentically. I work with individuals and couples/partners.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

My specialty areas include well-defined boundaries, communication, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and personal fulfillment.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Beginning with a new therapist doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. I offer a free 20-minute consultation for prospective clients to answer questions you may have about the process. Get to know more about me and my approach at JohnMoletress.com.

My treatment methods

Somatic

It's a treatment focusing on the body and how emotions appear within the body. Somatic therapies posit that our body holds and expresses experiences and emotions, and traumatic events or unresolved emotional issues can become 'trapped' inside.

Attachment-based

Attachment-based therapy is a process-oriented form of counseling. The client-therapist relationship is based on developing or rebuilding trust and centers on expressing emotions. An attachment-based approach to therapy looks at the connection between an infant’s early attachment experiences with primary caregivers, usually with parents, and the infant’s ability to develop normally and ultimately form healthy emotional and physical relationships as an adult. Attachment-based therapy aims to build or rebuild a trusting, supportive relationship that will help prevent or treat mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression.

Couples Counseling

Focusing on couples/partners with an open, poly and kink-affirming lens. I utilize a combination of Gottman and gestalt models in a solution-focused way.

EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy treatment that is designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories.

Gestalt

Gestalt therapy focuses on process (what is actually happening) over content (what is being talked about). The emphasis is on what is being done, thought, and felt at the present moment (the phenomenality of both client and therapist), rather than on what was, might be, could be, or should have been.
