"Are you "powering through" your day only to feel completely exhausted and disconnected when it’s over?
Burnout starts with exhaustion, but it rarely stops there. Left unchecked, it can lead to a deep sense of isolation, leaving you feeling like no one truly understands the weight you’re carrying. This often spirals into depression, anxiety and substance abuse, making it even harder to manage the demands of ADHD or the habits—like substance use—that we sometimes use to cope.
Before becoming a therapist, I practiced family law for 20 years. My experience taught me how to ask the hard questions in a way that is respectful and caring. I know from experience that professionals often feel they have to keep up a "mask" of competency, even when they are struggling internally. In our work together, we drop the mask and embrace reality.
If we can improve self-honesty and communication, we can develop the insight needed to stop the cycle of isolation and support positive and lasting change.

Have you ever felt like you're showing up for everyone else, but somewhere along the way, you've lost sight of yourself?Hi, I'm Molly, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over a decade of experience in behavioral health. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, family conflict, grief and loss, trauma and PTSD, panic attacks, bipolar disorder, identity and LGBTQIA+-related concerns, women's issues, and substance use and addiction recovery. I also have a special interest in perinatal and postpartum mental health, supporting new and expecting parents through maternal mental health concerns. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being yourself and supported in whatever brings you to therapy, no matter how big or small it may seem. I bring warmth, patience, and genuine curiosity to every session.
On the outside, you may look like you have everything together. You work hard, provide for your family, and carry responsibilities well. Yet internally, you may feel overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, angry, or caught in the same patterns despite your best efforts to change. My practice is built for people who are ready to move beyond simply talking about their problems. Together, we’ll identify the underlying beliefs, emotional patterns, and coping strategies that keep you feeling stuck. Therapy becomes a place to develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, healthier relationships, and lasting change.
