About Molly

Molly Nevens is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who focuses on helping people manage grief, stress, and major life changes. She greets clients with a calm, nonjudgmental manner and listens closely to what matters most to them. Molly aims to help people feel better about themselves and their lives through steady support and practical skills.

She uses straightforward problem-solving and coping techniques that match each person's needs. Sessions may include skills for stress reduction, mood management, addiction-related concerns, and handling relationship or parenting strain. Molly also addresses grief, sleep problems, trauma, and compassion fatigue with attention to daily routines and small, doable steps.

With ten years of clinical experience, Molly blends several therapy approaches to suit the person in front of her. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Client-Centered Therapy to tailor sessions. The goal is steady progress toward realistic, measurable goals rather than quick fixes.

Molly works with adults and adolescents and helps people with a wide range of concerns, including mood disorders, eating and substance issues, attachment and communication problems, and caregiver stress. She pays attention to individual histories like adoption, aging concerns, or chronic illness when these are relevant to care.

People who want practical coping tools and respectful, collaborative support may find her approach useful. To begin, she asks about what matters most and then builds a plan with clear steps toward the client's goals.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can help with grief, anxiety, and coping with big life changes by teaching simple practices to stay engaged in valued activities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood management. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an accepting, respectful relationship where the therapist listens and follows the client's pace. This approach supports people who need a steady, empathetic space to talk through painful issues.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. That plan can shift over time as progress and needs change.

Session options are not specified here, so please confirm current formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that remote work supports consistency while still allowing for active, skills-based therapy focused on real-life problems.
