Molly Nevens , LICSW

Molly Nevens is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who focuses on helping people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, depression, or struggles with addiction and eating concerns. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where adults and adolescents can talk about what matters. Molly aims to help people build skills that make daily life easier and more manageable.

She listens closely to each person's story and helps sort out pressing problems. Molly uses practical tools for coping with mood swings, grief, sleep problems, and relationship or parenting strain. She also supports people facing life transitions, compassion fatigue, or challenges tied to attachment and adoption history.

Molly blends several therapeutic approaches to suit each person’s needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and ACT strategies to clarify values and create meaningful action. Dialectical behavior and motivational interviewing methods are added when emotion regulation or readiness for change are central concerns.

Over ten years of practice have given her experience with complex issues such as bipolar disorder, chronic illness, co-morbidity, and trauma. Molly emphasizes skills you can use between sessions so progress carries into everyday routines. She works in a collaborative way, inviting questions and tailoring plans to real-life schedules and goals.

People who want straightforward guidance and clear coping tools tend to find her style helpful. If someone wants to focus on problem solving, mood management, or improving relationships, Molly aims to build practical strategies that fit their life.

How her methods translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by focusing on action rather than getting stuck on thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to interrupt unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, mood struggles, and sleep problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy concentrates on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can be helpful for anger, relationship strain, and intense mood swings.

Molly sees finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans as progress develops. The focus is on what helps in everyday life and on learning skills that transfer into real routines.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for deep conversations and skills practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat or text is useful for brief check-ins, skill reinforcement, or when a shorter interaction fits a busy day. These options make it possible to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other schedules while keeping the focus on practical change.
