About Molly

Molly Nevens is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who aims to help people feel better about themselves and their lives. She approaches therapy with a calm, non-judgmental manner and listens carefully to each person’s concerns. Molly works with adults and adolescents to build coping skills, manage stress, and address mood and behavior challenges.

Her practice focuses on common struggles such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, sleep problems, and addiction. She also supports people dealing with relationship strain, parenting stress, low self-esteem, anger, and life transitions. Money and financial issues are included among the concerns she addresses as part of broader life stressors.

Molly blends practical, action-oriented techniques with a person-centered stance. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas for values-based action.

In sessions she helps people set realistic goals and practices concrete tools between meetings. Expect straightforward problem solving, skill-building exercises, and space to talk through difficult feelings. Molly encourages gradual change and tracks progress toward the goals you set together.

With ten years of clinical experience in Massachusetts, she aims to meet each person where they are. Her approach combines evidence-based techniques with a supportive therapeutic relationship to help people move toward more satisfying daily life.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It’s useful when living with difficult feelings and wanting to move toward meaningful goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. It often involves short exercises and between-session practice.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify what techniques fit their goals and daily life. That might mean mixing ACT, CBT, or other skills until a workable plan is clear.

Confirm current session options before booking to know which online formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, and keep appointments during a work break. They also support continued skill practice between meetings and can make follow-up check-ins quicker when needed. Licensed professionals generally use these formats to help people build coping tools and track progress over time.
