“My husband and I were headed for divorce. We didn’t know if therapy would work but after a few sessions with Dr. K. everything started to shift. She has this calm, grounded way of making both of us feel heard. We
learned how to actually talk to-each other again without spiraling into fights. Thank you Dr-K! ”

It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due at the time of your session and can be made easily and securely through a HIPAA-compliant credit card app, Zelle, or PayPal. At the end of each month, I’ll provide a superbill (an itemized receipt) that you can submit to your health insurance company if you have out-of-network benefits. Many clients receive partial or full reimbursement this way, and I’m happy to guide you through the process if you’re new to it.

I went into therapy because I have been dealing with an estranged sibling. Dr. Molly has helped me process years of guilt and anger. I still have a ways to go, but I finally feel I am on the right path.

She doesn’t just sit there and stare at me, like my last psychologist. She has helped me think about things differently and this has greatly improved my relationships with others and most importantly, the relationship with myself.

Dr. Kingdon has saved our marriage! We were able to work through infidelity and betrayals. She is well informed about gay men and their specific issues.

It is hard to find the language to fully articulate how meaningful it has
been to have someone truly listen to me and take me seriously. After
feeling let down by almost everyone I had turned to for help, working with
Dr. Molly gave me a sense that someone might actually care about me. Her
kindness and belief in me made all the difference in the world.

I came to therapy struggling with constant anxiety and a lot of shame around my body image. She helped me understand how much of my anxiety was tied to perfectionism and self-worth. Over time, I began to feel more confident in how I look, and also in who I am. Therapy with her changed how I view myself, and I'm deeply grateful for that.

We were worried we wouldn’t find a therapist who understood non-traditional relationships, but Dr. Kingdon immediately created a space where we felt safe, affirmed, and accepted. We can’t recommend her enough, especially for couples exploring non-monogamy.

I saw Dr. Kingdon weekly for about 5 years. Working with her talk therapy has helped me mature as a person and in turn make better and more meaningful relationships. Since then I believe that I live a happier and more well adjusted life. This is not meant to make talk therapy sound like a panacea. It's impact on my life was profound and far reaching though. I cannot recommend Dr. Kingdon enough.

My partner and I have been in couples counseling for about a year. Dr. Molly has taught us various exercises and techniques which have deepened our connection and rekindled the love and affection in our relationship. Her supportive and non-intrusive style allowed us to progress at our own pace, making each session feel both productive and comfortable. We both highly recommend Dr. Kingdon.

I was laid off from my job due to covid and live alone, so I felt very isolated, depressed and anxious. A friend recommended I seek professional help and I'm so glad I took her advice. Dr. Kingdon made me feel so at ease and helped me talk through the feelings I was experiencing. I honestly don't know how I would have gotten through that tough time without her. The office manager was also helpful with my insurance. Highly recommend!
