Getting to know Molly Paxton
The best mental health care occurs when the patient's needs are prioritized and deeply integrated into the treatment plan. Whether you're dealing with anxious thoughts, phobias, learning difficulties, physical symptoms tied to mental health, depression, grief, or feeling like a dark cloud is always blocking out your light, help is available. By creating a judgment-free environment that fosters safe and open communication, we'll work together to carefully assess your or your loved one's unique situation and develop the most effective care plan.
I hold a Master's degree in Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing from Ohio University, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to provide comprehensive mental health care. I believe the key to addressing many unwanted feelings and behaviors lies in combining holistic and pharmacological approaches, including modifying one's environment, engaging in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and using medications to address chemical imbalances in the brain. As your provider, I will work diligently to create a personalized medication plan that alleviates your challenges while minimizing tolerable side effects. Additionally, using evidence-based measurement tools, we can track treatment effectiveness and make necessary adjustments along the way.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Visits aren’t rushed, and I don’t use one-size-fits-all plans. My goal is to understand what’s actually going on and make changes that help you function better in real life.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
We start with a thorough intake so I can get the full picture. From there, we build a plan together and adjust it based on how you’re doing; follow-ups are focused and efficient.
