About Molly

Molly Theurer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Utah with 16 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, life changes, and concerns around addiction and codependency. Molly also supports people dealing with parenting challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, body image, and attachment-related issues.

Molly uses straightforward conversation and common-sense skills in sessions. She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, and the Gottman Method. In practice this means she helps people notice patterns, try doable experiments, and build clearer ways to communicate.

Her background includes work in residential treatment centers, group homes, hospitals, and both online and in-person counseling settings. That mix of settings gives experience with short-term crisis work and longer-term growth. Molly frames sessions around the immediate problems someone brings and practical steps they can test between meetings.

Typical sessions involve talking through what’s most pressing, learning a few skills to reduce overwhelm, and practicing boundary and communication strategies. She pays attention to how family history, adoption or foster care experiences, and attachment patterns affect current relationships. People who struggle with people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or living around another person’s moods often focus on clearer limits and self-direction.

Molly works in English and practices in Utah. Clients who want to start are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session so they can begin outlining goals.

How sessions work

How her approaches work in online sessions

ACT focuses on identifying personal values and taking small steps toward them while accepting uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. It can help when people feel stuck or avoidant and want to move toward a clearer life direction. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for managing anxiety, low mood, and repetitive negative thinking.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Molly treats this as a collaborative process where the therapist and client decide together what methods to try based on current problems and concrete goals. She often combines elements from different approaches so sessions focus on workable strategies rather than labels.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking so you know how meetings will be scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people try skill practice between sessions in the places they actually live and relate, and makes it simpler to include communication exercises that fit daily life.
