Psychotherapy offers a safe, collaborative space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences in depth. My approach focuses on building a strong therapeutic relationship where you feel supported and empowered. Together, we’ll identify patterns that may be holding you back and work toward meaningful change by developing new insights and coping strategies. Clients benefit from increased self-awareness, improved emotional well-being, and practical tools to navigate challenges, fostering personal growth and a greater sense of fulfillment in life.

In psychotherapy I can help you explore the deeper roots of issues--the hidden facets of yourself and how they play out in your life. This exploration includes insight-oriented work, reflection, and specific strategies to address issues. Psychotherapy is an evidence-based therapy approach, and research has shown it to be the most effective approach for long-term resolution of issues. In our lives there are underground streams of feeling and meaning. I can help you access these deeper currents, bringing hidden dreams, unexplored life meaning, and unresolved conflicts (which may be underscoring relationship issues) to the surface.

In my practice as a psychotherapist I assist individuals to understand forces within that cause suffering & confusion. My approach is engaging, compassionate and expansive. I have over 25 years of experience with many types of people from different cultures & backgrounds. I believe most people have a mixture of complex emotions & complicated life experiences. But most everyone is trying to live a better life. People often have ‘scripts’ of who they are & why they came to be living the way they are. I help people develop ways of reflecting on what has been, what is, and what might be. This opens the possibilities for more choices in life. Your life can be different if you want it to be.

Psychotherapy is often used to treat a wide range of challenges, some of which include: poor self confidence, depression, anxiety, career problems, impaired relationships, addictions, etc. As your therapist I will assist you in identifying the key areas you would like to work on. Sometimes people feel so overwhelmed they do not know where to start. Together, we can determine which issues are of top priority. I will assist you in looking at the 'big picture', while initially setting small measurable goals. I will provide you with the support you need to tackle each obstacle head on. Small successes lead to great accomplishments.

The circumstances and issues that you are dealing with are unique to you, but you don't have to face them alone. Every individual has different experiences, perceptions, feelings, thoughts, beliefs, values, attitudes, cultural backgrounds and "upbringings". Counselling sessions are private and confidential, and can provide a way for you to explore your problems and really tune in to your feelings. This is an opportunity to speak freely about your circumstances and release pent up feelings, without having to worry about what others think or feel, and without receiving unwanted advise from family, friends or coworkers. At the root of the problem, there are very real, legitimate and understandable reasons for feeling the way you feel, thinking the way...(view profile to read more)

Molly's approach to counselling is highly collaborative, yet very reflective and insightful. Molly likes to imagine herself as a mirror, showing you a complete and comprehensive picture of your life as you describe it. Once you're able to envision an honest reflection of your circumstances, then you can take action that leads you where you truly want to go.

Clients who receive psychotherapy from me will learn about the root of their issues and how to heal these wounds. Many issues we face in life are deep rooted in our childhood or resulting from traumas we have survived and need to be addressed to be truly free and achieve peace and serenity. I will help you learn to live a vital, rich meaningful life and overcome any mental health issues.

We all go through challenges in life, in our past, present, and thoughts for our future. Sometimes we experience, stress, have family struggles, go through loss, or experience mental health challenges. It is during these times that a Clinical Counsellor can provide support and tools to navigate these situations. Individual counselling begins with building a collaborative relationship between you and your counsellor. The relationship can develop in person or virtually. Some clients prefer to have their sessions outdoors or engage in walk and talk therapy. Whatever the setting, therapy is a non-judgmental and confidential space for you to share safely and receive feedback and support.

Life can be very challenging and confusing at times. No matter how much our friends and family try and help, sometimes it's just not enough. Everyone goes through hard times and sometimes you just need someone you can trust to talk to about the things that may have happened in your life. I provide a safe place for you to explore what isn't working in your life and help you to find balance again.

Sometimes just the idea of self-exploration in counselling can seem daunting. We can make this process more comfortable and accessible, not just through our compassion for others, but also by offering a variety of counselling strategies from traditional talk therapies to expressive and creative options. Having choices in therapy allows the safety and flexibility to learn about ourselves and others. Let us help to open the door to the real, practical and long term changes you are seeking. We encourage the intra-personal and interpersonal connections that bring greater harmony to the individuals and families we serve.

Through psychotherapy you can begin to see yourself and your world through a non partial and neutral lens. Through the clarity and acceptance of your authentic self we will work to build your tools for ongoing personal growth and success, independent of counselling.
