Background and approach
The focus is on increasing self-awareness and noticing what helps in day-to-day life rather than on judgement or fixed rules. Her background includes three years of counselling experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. That registration reflects her professional standing in the UK counselling community.
In practice Molly uses a client-centred style. Sessions centre on each person’s experience and priorities. Together she and the client explore feelings, patterns and practical ways to cope with difficult moments.
Molly welcomes people from LGBT communities and supports a wide range of concerns, including anger, career issues, chronic illness, attachment and abandonment worries. She encourages clear, simple steps that fit into everyday life and aims to help people build on their own strengths.

This approach can help with anxiety, depression, relationship worries and issues such as grief or low self-esteem by encouraging self-awareness and personal choice.Molly uses a client-centred style to respond to what each person brings. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and adapt sessions so they feel useful and manageable for the individual.
