About Molly

Molly Nevens is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who helps people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, depression, or life changes. She talks with adults and adolescents in a calm, nonjudgmental way to sort out what matters and make practical steps forward.

Molly listens closely to understand each person's situation before suggesting strategies that fit. She uses straightforward tools for managing mood, improving sleep, and easing relationship strain. Sessions focus on problem solving, coping skills, and small changes that add up over time.

Her approach draws on several therapy styles to meet real-life needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and shift them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports values-based action when change feels hard.

Molly also uses client-centered methods and motivational interviewing to keep work practical and respectful. She partners with clients to set goals and revises plans as progress is made. That flexible mix aims to balance immediate relief with longer-term growth.

With ten years of experience, Molly brings steady clinical background without judgment. She encourages people to try steps that feel doable and to measure what helps. The focus is on clear, everyday tools to improve mood, relationships, and overall functioning.

How therapy approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take small actions that match personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and managing ongoing life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to change mood and functioning. It often involves practical exercises and homework between sessions to track progress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings concrete skills for regulating intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication. These tools can help when moods swing or reactions feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Molly will collaborate with clients to pick the methods that fit their goals and preferences, and she will adjust plans as needs change. The choice of techniques is guided by what helps in day-to-day life rather than a fixed label.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Ask about practical session logistics when you schedule so appointments can be shaped around your routines.
