About Mollie
Mollie Baker is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Oregon who helps people manage anxiety, stress, trauma, and depression. She works with adults and helps clients strengthen self-esteem, cope with life changes, and handle relationship or intimacy concerns. Mollie also supports people facing caregiver strain, chronic illness, cancer-related stress, grief, and career challenges.
Mollie uses a collaborative style. Sessions focus on listening first, then trying approaches that fit each person.
Background and approach
She draws on practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness to reduce anxious thoughts and improve day-to-day coping. She also uses EMDR and hypnotherapy as options when trauma memories or deep emotional patterns are present. Her approach values the client’s own strengths.
Mollie helps people notice small changes that add up. She offers steady support while encouraging real-life practice between sessions. This includes simple exercises for sleep, anger management, and communication.
Over five years as an LCSW, Mollie has worked in inpatient and outpatient settings and in community development overseas. That range gives her experience with medical issues, first responder stress, and survivors of domestic violence or abuse. She brings a trauma-sensitive, strengths-based view to each session.
Practical matters are handled plainly. Sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Mollie uses a subscription model that you can cancel at any time, and she will work with you to build a plan that fits your goals and schedule.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Mollie often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) online to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions typically include short exercises, homework between sessions, and practical tools to reduce anxiety and improve mood.She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma processing when appropriate; in an online setting this involves guided recollection and bilateral stimulation techniques adapted for remote use. Mindfulness therapy is another core element, with simple grounding and breathing practices taught during sessions to manage stress and improve sleep.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mollie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and comfort with techniques. She adapts plans over time based on what helps most.
Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for in-depth work and guided exercises, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text messaging can fit quick check-ins or busy schedules. These options make therapy more flexible and let people fit care around work, family, and daily life.
