About Molly
Molly Nevens is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Massachusetts with 10 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting, sleep problems, and related struggles. Molly also lists work around self-esteem, anger, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue.
She listens with attention and asks practical questions to clarify what feels most urgent. Sessions include problem solving, learning coping skills, and stress management techniques. She uses straightforward tools aimed at improving mood and day-to-day functioning.
Molly draws from several established approaches when it helps, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She blends these methods to address patterns of thinking, emotional regulation, and motivation for change.
Her work with parenting concerns and family-related stress looks at communication, boundaries, and practical strategies people can use at home. She also supports people coping with grief, trauma, chronic illness, and caregiver strain, focusing on small, usable changes rather than abstract goals.
For someone juggling work and home life, sessions emphasize concrete skills and short-term steps. Molly encourages clients to set clear, realistic goals and checks progress openly. To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions
ACT, or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings and then focus on actions that align with their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and helping people move forward when problems feel stuck.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches concrete tools to change them. It is commonly used for depression, anxiety, sleep issues, and coping with life changes.
Motivational Interviewing is a conversational approach that helps clarify goals and increase readiness for change. It’s often helpful for addictions, ambivalence about change, and building motivation for new habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. People can try strategies and then adjust them based on how well they work.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Licensed professionals can use session time to teach skills, practice new ways of communicating, and plan small tests of change that fit into everyday life.
