About Molly

Molly Terry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 24 years of clinical experience. She brings a warm, straightforward style and focuses on listening without judgment. Parents and adults who want clear feedback and practical steps will find her direct and steady in sessions.

Molly centers sessions on evidence-based methods. She blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other techniques. Together with clients she sets realistic goals, reviews progress, and adjusts plans as needed.

Background and approach

Sessions include brief, tailored takeaways to practice between meetings. She uses regular messaging to answer questions and support work between sessions. This approach is meant to keep momentum and reinforce skills when life gets busy.

She works on a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting topics, addiction, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Molly also addresses related areas such as body image, communication problems, caregiver stress, and blended family issues. Molly practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English.

She draws on two decades of experience to offer calm guidance, clear structure, and practical tools. Her aim is to help people feel heard and to move toward manageable, real change.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on meeting the person where they are. The therapist offers empathic listening and supports clients in finding their own solutions, which can help with confidence and self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful habits.

Molly combines these approaches to tailor each plan. She will talk with clients about goals, try an approach, and change course if something is not helpful. Finding the best fit is collaborative and happens step by step rather than being decided in advance.

Online sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules and comfort levels. Video allows face-to-face work when that matters. Messaging and text give frequent check-ins and short coaching between meetings. These options make it easier to keep momentum and use new skills during everyday life.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
