About Mollie

Mollie Isaacson is a licensed clinical social worker with LICSW after her name and 40 years of professional experience. She focuses on practical help for people facing relationship stress, trauma and abuse, low self esteem, and big life changes. Mollie also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue and related overwhelm. She aims to make beginning therapy as straightforward as possible for people taking that first step.

In sessions she builds a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through difficult thoughts and feelings. Conversations are direct and grounded in real daily challenges. Mollie listens for what matters most and helps people find small changes that add up over time.

Her work addresses many related issues including abandonment, body image, chronic pain or illness, communication problems, isolation and loneliness, and questions about life purpose. She also helps people who face panic disorder and panic attacks, personality concerns, process addictions, self-harm, social anxiety, and women’s issues.

With decades of experience, Mollie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to tailor the work to each person. She emphasizes practical coping skills alongside opportunities to examine patterns that keep problems repeating. Mollie encourages pacing the work to match each person’s comfort and needs.

People who reach out will be asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist’s availability. Mollie accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.

Evidence-based approaches and how online work can fit

Mollie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people learn coping skills and address the roots of recurring problems. One approach focuses on building practical coping strategies for managing intense reactions and daily stressors, which can help people struggling with panic attacks and anxiety. Another approach looks at patterns in relationships and communication, helping people change behaviors that lead to conflict or isolation.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Mollie listens to each person’s goals, symptoms, and preferences and then suggests techniques that fit. The plan can be adjusted as work progresses, and clients take an active role in choosing what feels most helpful.

If you’re considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people connect from different locations, which is helpful for international clients. Mollie will discuss which methods and formats best support your needs during the initial matching and scheduling process.
