About Molly
Molly Newman is a licensed professional clinical counselor - LPCC practicing in Minnesota. She has seven years of clinical experience and a longer history in the mental health field. Molly focuses on practical steps clients can use to manage day-to-day life and symptoms.
Molly keeps sessions straightforward and goal oriented. She listens first and helps clients find what already works in their lives. Then she introduces tools from cognitive behavioral methods and mindfulness to shift unhelpful thoughts and habits.
Background and approach
Her style is collaborative and strength based. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to help people notice patterns in close relationships and to improve emotional connection. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change.
Typical concerns she addresses include stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, relationship strains, and LGBT issues. Sessions aim to teach skills that make daily life easier and more manageable. Molly invites a steady, practical pace.
She helps clients build small routines, reframe negative thoughts, and try new ways of communicating. The work emphasizes clear steps, not jargon.
How Molly’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and creating a supportive space. The therapist follows the client’s lead and helps them discover their own solutions, which can be helpful for sorting priorities and pacing change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches specific skills to shift unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which suits problems like anxiety, depression, and sleep issues.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then try methods that match those needs. That conversation is collaborative and can change over time as progress is made.
Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules or for those who find in-person visits difficult. Video and phone let people speak through sensitive topics in real time, while chat and text can be useful for short check-ins and practice between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life while using the same counseling methods described above.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)
Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
