Hi, I'm Molly, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes deeply in the power of connection, presence, and honoring the wisdom you already carry. I have extensive experience supporting women and adolescents navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, family and relationship challenges, attachment patterns, and the lasting emotional impact of difficult or overwhelming experiences.

Whether you’re working through a painful chapter or seeking greater clarity and self-understanding, my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and empowered to move forward.
