Hello and welcome. My name is Molly Higgins, and I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of California. My personal philosophy is this: People are good inside. I believe we are all doing our best, and sometimes we don’t have the resources, tools, and support that we need to do better. We all develop our unique coping styles based on our personality, childhood, and life experiences; your method of coping may have worked in the past, and it may not be working for you now.

I believe that every individual is a whole and healthy being. Trauma that occurs in childhood or later in life creates a block that makes one feel less than whole and far from healthy. Because of this, anxiety, depression, addictions to substances, food, and other destructive behaviors become a way of coping. My goal is to help my clients restore the feeling of wholeness and well-being by providing a safe, supportive and nurturing environment in which they can work through difficult issues and restore their true selves. I see it everyday...
