About Molly
Molly Hagan is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the effects of trauma. She works with adults who are facing life changes, compassion fatigue, or overwhelming worry. Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at helping people feel steadier in day-to-day life.
Molly uses practical tools to address panic, mood struggles, and post-traumatic stress. She draws on approaches such as acceptance and commitment strategies, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness practices to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new responses.
Background and approach
Sessions are geared toward simple skills that can be used between meetings. She also supports people dealing with caregiver strain, workplace stress, communication problems, and the emotional fallout of separation. Molly helps clients name feelings like guilt, shame, and isolation, and then practice steps to reduce their impact.
Conversations often focus on small, achievable changes rather than big fixes. With four years of practice as an LCSW - licensed clinical social worker - she blends empathy with clear guidance. Molly aims to make therapy feel manageable for someone juggling work, family, or health issues.
Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Many people come to address social anxiety, impulse control, or questions about life purpose and self-worth. In sessions she helps set concrete goals, track progress, and build habits that support daily functioning.
The focus is on what helps a person feel more capable in their everyday roles.
Approaches for Online Healing and Everyday Coping
Molly commonly uses acceptance and commitment approaches and cognitive behavioral techniques to guide online work. Acceptance and commitment methods focus on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values. This can help when life changes feel overwhelming or when avoidance keeps someone from trying new things. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at thinking patterns and behaviors, helping people test and change unhelpful thoughts that feed anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach often takes a few conversations. Molly will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, comfort level, and day-to-day demands. She tailors the plan over time, checking in about what is helpful and what needs adjustment so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video sessions are useful for in-depth work and real-time interaction. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins, written exercises, or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, caregiving, or medical appointments while keeping therapy focused on concrete skills and steady progress.
