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 people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, and depression. Molly also addresses adoption and foster care matters, blended family issues, body image, caregiver stress, and related concerns.

Molly came to counseling after her own experience with grief following the unexpected death of her father. That personal experience shaped why she chose this work and how she listens to others. She offers straightforward, collaborative sessions where clients talk through what feels hard and set clear goals together.

Her style is grounded and practical. Sessions include open conversation, noticing patterns in thinking and behavior, and trying small changes between meetings. She often focuses on communication challenges, mood management, and problem areas such as codependency, control issues, and impulsivity.

Molly has experience with clients across a range of ages starting around 12 and up. She helps people navigate family of origin problems, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and eating or food-related concerns. Her background also includes supporting parents and caregivers through stress tied to caregiving roles.

Outside of work, Molly lives in Kentucky with her husband and four large dogs. She spends free time running, writing, leading Bible study, mentoring, and reading. Her personal experience with relationships and loss informs her practical, people-focused approach to therapy.

How evidence-based techniques are used online

Many clients respond well to focused, evidence-based strategies that help reduce anxiety and improve communication. Cognitive-behavioral techniques look at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together and encourage small experiments to test new ways of responding to social situations and stress. Behavioral approaches use gradual, planned steps to face feared situations and practice skills until they become easier. Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which techniques fit their goals and comfort level. That plan can change over time as progress or new concerns emerge. Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also let people work with a licensed professional from their own area without needing to rearrange a full day around an appointment.
