I love working with women, specifically in their 20s-40s. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, mom and stepmom who cares deeply about supporting women and their partners as they navigate challenges and seek to have fulfilling relationships. Many of the women I work with are high-achieving, thoughtful, and carrying more than they let on. They're juggling the load of all the roles they fill, tend to put others before themself, are feeling disconnected or hurt in a relationship, or have a hard time quieting the constant chatter in their minds. With a spirit of authenticity, transparency, and some humor, I help women and couples to feel seen and understood as we unpack current or past issues and create a new path forward.

I specialize in helping women overcome anxiety and depression so that they can enjoy life's milestones such as graduating college, first career job, marriage, and having children. When anxious or depressed, these milestones are met with extreme fear or feelings of just "meh". You wonder when things got this way, as you didn't always feel hopeless or have an extreme fear of being judged. Your family and friends have noticed this change as you do not hang out with them as much and seem to have lost your joy. You don't have to feel this way forever. Imagine being relaxed while in public, wanting to hang out with loved ones, and being excited about your future. I work with women in their 20's and 30's that are entering a new phase of their life (i.e. college, career, relationship) and experience anxiety and depression.

Healing does not have to look magical or pretty. Real healing is hard, exhausting and draining. The best part about being in therapy is that you do not have to do it alone. The work begins when you leave my office. With my support, I strive for my clients to independently utilize healthy coping skills learned in sessions to apply upon daily interaction with others & themselves. I aim to provide effective treatment to clients while exploring the underlying causes of each client’s mental health concerns. With a modern holistic approach to therapy over time, we can break the mental health stigma in our society.

“Just because no one else can heal or do your inner work for you doesn’t mean you can, should, or need to do it alone.” -Lisa Olivera.

There’s no pressure to be perfect or “fix” yourself in this therapy room, and Molly will encourage exploration of what living imperfectly may feel like. Life can feel exhausting, and Molly is here to make space for that. She aims to help all clients to find a greater sense of authenticity, community and joy in their lives, and that can start by acknowledging a starting point of discomfort and exhaustion. Molly’s clinical training focused on working with clients through an intersectional lens, something that shaped her passion for feminist therapy, where oppression, power and privilege are all named in the therapy room. Molly recognizes the privileges she holds as a white, cisgender, middle-class woman, in working with all clients. She acknowledges cultural differences in therapy, and makes space for each client’s experience with any form of intersecting identities. Molly is well aware of the impacts of patriarchy, white supremacy, heteronormativity, cisnormativity, colonialism, and fatphobia on our mental health, and aims to integrate a decolonized lens into all work she does. She brings anti-racist, anti-oppressive and restorative justice approaches to her work and is willing to be called in by clients for any missteps that may happen. The therapeutic relationship is a space where she encourages clients to model their ideal relationships and communication, even when it may feel uncomfortable.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, stressed and disconnected. Perhaps your relationship is stuck in a negative cycle and you can't find the way out. Maybe you are going through a difficult transition and could use support. At some point we all need help dealing with the changes, or lack of change in our lives. Therapy can be a wonderful place to work out how to take the next steps and find relief. As a liberation focused therapist, I understand the impact oppressive structures have on our mental health. I work with adult individuals and people in relationships to help them reduce the effects of harm, and find joy and calm in their relationships and community. Currently, I provide in-person care anr my Smyrna office and teletherapy for folks throughout Georgia, with a "Walk and Talk" outdoor option as well. About me: I am direct and warm, with a touch of New Jersey sarcasm. I love belting musical numbers and appreciate art in all its forms. I am a white, Queer, diasporic Jew and mama of two; a spouse, sister, daughter and auntie in a multiracial and multifaith family. I have had the honor to walk alongside folks on their career and mental health journeys in both the college setting and the greater community. I love the work I do both in the therapy room and as an activist and would be excited to be a part of your support network.

I help students navigate the pressures of achievement, self-doubt, and life transitions - whether related to academics, relationships, health, or identity. Over the past few years, I’ve worked in university counseling centers, including a year at Georgia Tech's counseling center, supporting college students through challenges with anxiety, perfectionism, ADHD, autism, and chronic health conditions. I am now in private practice, but love supporting young adults and college students! My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in both compassion and practical strategies, helping you understand your patterns, build confidence, and create a life that feels both meaningful and sustainable. I offer both in-person (Smyrna, GA) and telehealth therapy services. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation to see if we are good fit to work together!
