Molly Giannotta, LMHC

Molly Giannotta is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida who centers her work on relationships and attachment. She brings nine years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and parenting challenges. Her approach aims to create space for honest conversation and steady progress.

Molly favors a client-centered stance that keeps the person's goals in view. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how early bonds shape current relationship patterns.

Her background includes focused work with trauma and abuse that began in graduate school. She has supported people through grief, anger, and major life changes, and she has experience addressing ADHD, self-esteem, and communication struggles. She also works with concerns tied to adoption, foster care, blended family dynamics, and caregiver stress.

Molly has taught college courses like Child Psychology and Psychology of Personality, and she brings that teaching experience to therapy sessions. Her practice sometimes incorporates expressive arts or play-based ideas when those methods fit a person's needs and preferences.

Therapy with Molly is collaborative and practical. Sessions look at what is causing distress now and what can be changed. People who want help sorting out relationship patterns, parenting strain, or trauma-related reactions may find a clear, steady ally in her.

How attachment, CBT, and client-centered work translate online

Attachment-based thinking focuses on how early relationships shape current bonds. Online sessions can use conversation to notice patterns, name emotions, and practice new ways of relating to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and gives concrete tools to test and change unhelpful thinking. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and the client’s goals, making space for people to lead the pace and focus of sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That may mean trying a CBT exercise for a few weeks, then shifting to attachment-based explorations if relationship patterns are the central concern.

Confirm available session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can feel simpler, while video sessions allow more visual connection for role-play and communication work. The therapist will help match session length and style to what works best for the client.
