Molly Behrens, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Molly! What makes my job extremely fulfilling is companioning with honest, curious individuals who hope to better themselves and want to experience all the best that life has to offer. I believe in a mind/body connection and in treating the whole person. Healthy relationships are key to optimal functioning and happiness. My focus Working with a wide variety of people in relation to age, sex, educational level, economic status, and presenting problems is important to me. I taught school for over 20 years and enjoy working with adolescents as well. My approach Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and a Humanistic/Existential approach are therapies I use most often. I specialize in depression and anxiety, trauma, couples and infidelity, adoption and attachment, and behavioral/emotional issues. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and a Certified Grief Counselor. My communication style I am open, honest, curious, and straightforward. I rarely leave my clients guessing where I am coming from! I value your feedback along the way. My journey to mental healthcare I was a teacher for 23 years before I decided to go back and earn my master's degree so I could work as a high school counselor. I was getting my hours done working under another therapist in private practice when I realized I was really interested in her job! It is a luxury to focus on one person or a couple at a time. My goals for you I work in collaboration with my clients. It's important for me to understand what you want to accomplish in therapy in order to formulate a treatment plan that works best for you. Our first session Generally, we go over any questions the client or myself may have that were not answered in intake paperwork and discuss assessments and goals of therapy. It is time for me to tell you a bit about myself and for you to ask questions of me as well if you have them. Our following sessions will slow it down to a more comfortable pace!
