Mollie Baker is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Oregon with five years of clinical experience. She draws on an integrative set of therapeutic methods to support people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, relationship and family concerns, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleep difficulties, anger, and career or life transition challenges.

Her work also encompasses a range of additional focus areas including body image, cancer and caregiver issues, chronic pain and illness, communication and control problems, domestic violence and family-of-origin concerns, fertility and first-responder issues, and struggles with guilt, shame, isolation, or jealousy. Mollie uses evidence-informed tools such as client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), hypnotherapy, and mindfulness therapy, tailoring interventions to each person’s needs.

Clients can expect a collaborative approach that centers their strengths and goals while building practical coping skills. Mollie communicates in English and emphasizes individualized care plans developed together with the people she works with, aiming to increase resilience, clarity, and well-being over time.

Therapeutic approaches and online care tailored to your needs

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client’s own perspective and strengths, offering a supportive environment where people explore their goals and values. This approach helps with self-esteem, relationship concerns, and challenges related to life transitions by centering the client’s voice.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and developing practical strategies to change them. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep difficulties and helps clients build concrete coping skills.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-informed method aimed at processing traumatic memories and reducing their ongoing emotional impact. It can be helpful for trauma and abuse-related symptoms and for people who have not found relief through other approaches.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mollie works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow licensed professionals and therapists to meet people where they are, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, manage ongoing responsibilities, and maintain continuity of care.
