Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Reston, VA

​I am experienced in treating PPD/PPA, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, and related concerns. I am trained in EMDR with a focus on the perinatal period. I enjoy working with parents to support positive attachments with their children, navigate through challenges, and understand developmental stages and concerns.

I also work with those experiencing difficulties related to ADHD, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma.

As a mental health therapist, I practice in Virginia, Delaware, Florida, and North Carolina, specializing in grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, anger management, and stress associated with life transitions.

I am a Master's level independent clinical social worker and have been practicing as a therapist for 8 years. I am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and work well with individuals who have experienced complex or childhood trauma. I also work with clients who struggle with ADHD, burnout, anxiety or depression. I became a therapist to help others live up to their full potential and get out of autopilot to find genuine contentment in their lives.

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.

I also work with individuals facing major life transitions, helping them navigate the uncertainty, performance pressure, anxiety, and depression that can accompany periods of significant change. 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.

While much of my experience has been working with women and teens, I warmly welcome men and individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds. I am committed to creating a therapy space that is inclusive, affirming, culturally responsive, and grounded in compassion, curiosity, and respect.

I am a client-centered therapist who works with individuals navigating stress, life transitions, and emotional challenges, using a collaborative and supportive approach to foster growth and resilience.

I have a double Master's and a Doctoral degree in psychology. I began my graduate study In NYC in 2006 doing research and clinical work in attachment theory both with young children and adults. It was there that I witnessed the impact of early and adult attachments. I have trained and worked in a variety of settings and each time I witnessed the fundamental human need of a secure, responsive and safe connection and the impact of isolation and trauma.

Welcome. If you have been feeling overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, mood swings, or trouble focusing, you are not alone. Maybe your teen is struggling, or you are exhausted from trying to manage symptoms on your own. When your mood, energy, or attention feel out of control, daily life can feel harder than it should. I offer a supportive, judgment free space where your concerns are taken seriously.

I practice affirming, allied, feminist therapy rooted in empowerment and strengths perspectives. I acknowledge that late-stage capitalism is an implicit factor in functioning. I believe sleep, calories, and movement form the foundation for coping.

In therapy with me you will find that I emphasize acceptance of emotions, reframing negative thinking, and offering self-grace. I try to help you dig deeper to get the root issue that is causing you to be different than the way you want to be.

We are talking about you and your life, things that matter so I am open and non-judging, relaxed, and very real.
