About Molly
Molly Nevens is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with ten years of clinical experience based in Massachusetts. She works with adults and adolescents on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, sleeping problems, parenting concerns, and anger. Molly listens and helps people identify practical steps they can use day to day.
Her approach mixes several evidence-informed methods. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used for emotional regulation and coping when feelings feel overwhelming. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take meaningful action even when emotions are strong.
Molly also draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to support motivation and forward movement. Sessions are focused on clear goals, problem solving, and skill building like stress management or sleep routines. She emphasizes practical coping strategies rather than abstract theory.
In sessions she will listen, reflect, and work with clients to set realistic steps. She helps people practice new responses to anger, manage resentment, and reduce snapping at loved ones. The aim is steady, usable change that fits into everyday life.
Molly asks clients to set goals and checks progress along the way. She adapts methods to what the person prefers and what works in their daily routine. For people dealing with life change, trauma, or relational strains, she provides structured support to move toward clearer functioning and improved mood.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help when anger gets in the way of relationships or goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with real-life changes. CBT is useful for managing anxiety, depression, and reactive behaviors like snapping or rumination.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clear communication. These skills are often used when intense feelings lead to impulsive responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to try methods that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That means adjusting techniques over time based on what helps in everyday life.
