About Molly
Molly Newman is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) practicing in Minnesota with seven years of clinical experience.
Background and approach
She brings a background in multiple areas of mental health work and draws on a range of therapeutic methods to address concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, and LGBT-related issues. Molly emphasizes practical skill building to support meaningful changes in daily life.
Her style centers on a person-focused, strength-based stance that treats the client as the expert on their own experience while she offers tools and guidance. She integrates cognitive behavioral principles alongside emotionally-focused and mindfulness-informed techniques, and uses motivational interviewing where helping clients find their own motivation fits.
Molly frames progress as collaborative work and prioritizes helping people develop concrete strategies and coping skills. She recognizes that beginning therapy can feel daunting and aims to make the process approachable, working with each individual’s goals and pace.
Prospective clients in Minnesota who prefer a therapist who blends evidence-informed methods with a supportive, client-centered approach may find her orientation aligns with their needs.
Approaches for Online Work and Practical Skill Building
Client-centered therapy emphasizes understanding the client’s perspective and creating a collaborative space where the individual’s goals and values guide the work; it helps people feel heard and supports exploration of personal strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, providing concrete tools for managing anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, sleep issues, and other concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotions and relational patterns, helping people recognize and reorganize emotional responses to improve connection and emotional regulation.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be a collaborative decision. The therapist will discuss each method, consider a client’s goals and preferences, and tailor interventions so that the work aligns with what the client finds most useful and sustainable.
Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging that make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to access consistent care from home or other locations. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver skill-based work, track progress, and provide support between sessions in ways that can suit different lifestyles and learning styles.
