My ideal client is someone who may not be familiar with therapy but is open and eager to try it out. The ideal client would be a BIPOC individual seeking support on their healing journey. Someone who may have experienced trauma in their lives and is looking for a space where they can unpack, learn skills, psycho-education, explore, and express themselves in an inclusive environment.

Hi! I am Molly and have a genuine passion for helping people. Healing includes change, change can be uncomfortable, but that is when you know that you truly are healing and moving in a more positive direction with your life. My role is to help facilitate that change. Clients often come to therapy because they continuously are repeating patterns that are unhealthy and maladaptive. My job is to help you identify the patterns, to better understand yourself, and to help you reconnect with yourself.

The decision to seek help for a problem is often a difficult one. People pursue therapy for a variety of reasons. Some may enter therapy to address major life changes, such as becoming a parent, and others may seek help in managing mental health conditions, like depression. Many people seek counseling because they have identified specific goals or issues that they wish to work on. Others may be encouraged by family, friends, or medical professionals to seek help. Whatever the motivation, it takes courage to attend therapy, and it takes dedication to see it through.

I believe that everyone possesses the innate ability to heal and grow. My role as your counselor is to support and guide you towards the part of you that has always held that wisdom within. Together, we will explore the patterns that may be keeping you stuck and discover the root of your current struggles, empowering you to become the author of your life. In my practice I support adults struggling with complex trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, challenges with identity, self-worth and connection to self and others. These challenges can be devastating and difficult to navigate, but you don't have to face them alone.

I love working with spiritual, neurodivergent, high performing and Motivated couples/clients with relationship struggles who use therapy as an avenue for healing. I believe that spirituality can be a resource in healing. I also enjoy working with teenagers and young adults exploring their identity and family of origin. If talk therapy hasn't helped you fulfill your goals then my approaches could help. I enjoy helping clients explore relationship patterns that don't serve them. This work requires commitment and motivation to change current patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior. I believe accountability is paramount to change.

When working with clients, I use an eclectic approach, which means that I am schooled in many theoretical orientations and have mastered an infinite number of skills. I draw from the knowledge I possess to adapt my approach to the person or people in front of me. I believe that the most important part of the therapeutic process is the relationship between the therapist and the client/clients. Building rapport and establishing a relationship based on acceptance, empathy, honesty, safety and trust with my clients is my first priority as the therapist. One of my innate skills is being non-judgmental.

Let's share a comfortable, easy, judgment-free therapeutic journey tailored just for you. My office is a judgment-free zone. Nobody has their life 100% together. Not even me. It's all part of the human experience - embracing growth, learning, and diving into the unknown, even if it means stumbling along the way. It might feel a bit awkward at times, but there's a certain freedom and beauty in being truly seen for who we are, imperfections and all.
