About Molly
Molly Techau is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Kentucky with seven years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, and depression. She also focuses on issues such as adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, body image, caregiver stress, and eating-related concerns.
Molly came to counseling after experiencing her own loss and attending therapy for grief and relationship work. That personal experience informed her decision to change paths and commit to counseling full time. She brings a straightforward, present-focused manner to sessions and prefers to work collaboratively with the person in front of her.
In sessions she talks through communication patterns, mood management skills, and relationship dynamics. She helps people who feel empty, overwhelmed by guilt or shame, or stuck after family changes such as divorce or blended family adjustments. She also addresses impulsivity, codependency, and forgiveness work when those themes show up.
Molly uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and looks for moments to gently challenge clients toward their goals. She typically adapts session content to what a person needs that week, balancing practical coping skills with relationship-focused conversations.
She lives in Kentucky with her husband and four large dogs. Outside of work she runs, leads Bible study, journals, and spends time with friends and family. Her approach is steady and direct, aimed at helping young adults and other clients sort through early-adult pressures and life transitions.
How Molly’s approaches translate to online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on skills and conversation. One common approach teaches concrete coping skills for anxiety and mood management, such as breath work, behavior changes, and short practices to use when feeling overwhelmed. These tools can help with work stress, adjusting after college, and managing day-to-day mood swings.Another approach looks at relationship patterns and family of origin issues. This involves talking through communication habits, noticing repeated responses, and practicing new ways of asking for what you need. It is useful for people navigating dating, early partnership challenges, or family transitions like divorce and blended households.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help figure out which combination of skills and relationship-focused conversations fits a client's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is made together and can change as progress is made.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because specific formats are not listed here. Many people appreciate online work because it can fit into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and make it easier to check in between obligations. If you need shorter check-ins, options that don't require a camera, or sessions that match a work break, confirm those possibilities when you schedule.
