  • "It's hard to overstate the positive impact that working with Molly has had on my life. Over the course of the last ~year, Molly has helped me to build up an arsenal of tools, strategies, and resources to manage difficult situations and day-to-day stresses. During our initial consultation call, she made me feel comfortable by answering all of my questions and providing details on her approach, without ever being pushy about moving things forward. Whether working through trauma/using EMDR, practicing mindfulness, or just talking through what's on my mind - I always leave her sessions feeling heard and grounded. I'm incredibly grateful to have Molly as a therapist and highly recommend her if you're seeking one."

    - Client

  • "I've been in and out of different types of therapy on and off for years (since high school), but never seemed to find someone that just 'got it'. It was always an exhausting process of vetting one therapist after another and usually found myself feeling like I'd end up talking about what at the time, was the same narrative repeatedly. Meeting Molly a year ago, I knew I'd met someone that was different. My experience with Molly and through sessions of EMDR left me with resolution. She's assisted me with healing; the big stuff to the little, and understanding patterns associated. She consistently is the voice and ear I look forward to seeing and can credit Molly with so much of the growth and development I've had thus far."

    - Client

  • "I saw Molly for almost 9 months (both EMDR and talk), I felt very supported during the process, she made me feel safe and understood. She gave me tools and resources to self-soothe, take more risks in my life, understand and resolve unhealthy patterns. It was a very transformative experience, she is non-jugmental and empathetic which made me feel comfortable to dig deeper into my traumas. I feel more confident and empowered and feel very hopeful about my future. I highly recommend her!"

    - Client

  • "Molly has been a critical part of my recovery. She has helped me make significant, long lasting changes in my behavior and thinking to lead me closer to my goals. Under her care, not only have I learned to live without substance abuse, but also to overcome feelings of anxiety, depression and fear. Molly’s warm presence made it easy to share what’s really going on. I’m very grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her!"

    - Client

  • "Molly is exceptional at her job. She gave me all the tools I needed to succeed during a difficult time in my life. After each session with Molly, I’d instantly feel better about myself and any situations I went into the session fearing. Molly helped me learn how to live a happy life without using drugs or alcohol. Overall, Molly is super trustworthy, amazing to speak with, and a fantastic therapist."

    - Client

  • "Molly was incredibly helpful for my relationships, both personal and family, and my conception of self. She does an awesome mix of both EDMR and talk therapy, which worked in conjunction to consistently lead to valuable insights. Could not recommend her services higher for anyone looking for guidance, improvement or inspiration!"
