Molly Giannotta

Molly Giannotta is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida who blends practical strategies with a person-focused style. She works with people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, ADHD, grief, relationship and family tensions, and anger. Her approach aims to make therapy feel understandable and doable for busy families.

Molly uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape behavior and emotion. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Mindfulness practices and elements of dialectical behavior therapy are added when helpful to build emotion regulation skills.

Her background includes nine years of work in mental health, with a focus on trauma that began during graduate school. She has experience supporting parents and caregivers, and has worked with adoption, attachment, and blended family issues. She also brings experience with autism and attention differences, as well as disruptive mood concerns in children.

Molly values a client-centered attitude in sessions. She aims to listen first, then offer clear tools people can try between meetings. Expressive options such as art or sand tray work are used when they fit a person’s needs and goals.

People who choose Molly usually want straightforward guidance and a plan they can use at home. She supports those navigating life changes, grief, parenting stress, and problems that include anger and control issues.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can help identify those patterns and practice new ways of relating to partners, children, or oneself. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting and changing thoughts and actions that keep problems going. In an online setting this often means tracking situations and trying small behavioral experiments between meetings to test new responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean emphasizing skills training, exploring relationship patterns, or blending mindfulness and behavioral tasks to improve emotional control.

Please confirm available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, short check-ins during a break, meetings without travel time, or using audio rather than video when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can use these formats to keep continuity of care and help people practice skills in the contexts where they live and parent.
