About Molly

Molly Theurer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Utah. She brings 16 years of experience helping people manage anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and big life changes.

Background and approach

Molly works with individuals and couples who want practical tools and clearer communication. Molly uses straightforward methods to help people feel more in control.

She blends Gottman Method ideas for relationship work with cognitive and mindfulness-based strategies. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings, such as communication techniques, behavioral experiments, and emotion regulation tools.

Her background includes time in residential treatment centers, group homes, and hospital settings. She also has experience providing counseling both in person and online.

That range gives her familiarity with crises, long-term therapy, and shorter-term coaching-style work. Molly holds a Master of Social Work from the University of Utah and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology.

Her LCSW credential reflects clinical practice in Utah and ongoing professional development. She draws on that training to tailor plans to each person’s needs.

In sessions she aims for a calm, focused pace and clear steps forward. Conversations tend to be practical and solution-oriented while still leaving room to talk about feelings.

Molly often assigns small, doable tasks between sessions to build momentum and track progress.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Gottman Method ideas focus on improving how partners talk and solve problems together. In online sessions this looks like practicing short conversations, learning repair techniques, and building routines that reduce conflict. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior experiments to test new ideas. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day struggles. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice hard thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can help with stress, motivation, and coping with difficult emotions.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try a few methods, and adjust based on what feels most useful. Sessions often combine tools from different approaches so work is tailored to each person or couple.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let you practice communication and eye contact work in real time. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or text messaging supports quick check-ins, notes between sessions, or ongoing coaching-style contact. These options make it easier to keep consistent progress while fitting therapy into daily routines.
