About Mollie
Mollie Baker is a licensed clinical social worker in Oregon who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, and caregiver or compassion fatigue. She focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Sessions aim to feel supportive and respectful so people can be themselves while they work through hard issues.
Mollie uses a collaborative, strengths-based style. She centers each session on what the person wants to change and on their own resources.
Background and approach
Common goals include better sleep, managing anger, improving communication, coping with life changes, and processing grief or loss. Her approach blends several methods to match a person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps break unhelpful thinking patterns.
Mindfulness practices teach simple ways to calm the body and focus attention. EMDR can be offered for people working on past trauma. Mollie draws on five years of clinical experience in outpatient and related settings.
She has supported people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image and fertility concerns, first responder issues, and the effects of domestic violence or family-of-origin wounds. She also helps people navigating career stress and isolation. Sessions are offered in English and are provided through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Mollie aims to create a practical plan each week so progress feels doable and relevant to daily life.
Approaches for online healing and practical change
Mollie commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and EMDR when it fits a person’s goals. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, respect, and working from the person’s priorities to build trust and clarity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thoughts and behaviors and offers straightforward exercises to change unhelpful cycles. EMDR is an approach used to help people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mollie discusses options with each person and makes decisions together based on needs, goals, and comfort. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions so the methods feel relevant and practical.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls are useful for deeper, face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or fit brief exchanges into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, and other responsibilities.
