Joelle Molloy
Joelle offers a safe, non-judgmental, and culturally-sensitive space for your free expression and exploration. Together you come to find that anything can be thought about, talked about, and felt. In your relationship, free from ordinary demands and expectations, you can enjoy the feeling of occupying space, and feeling deeply seen and heard. From here, you can begin to grasp the shape of who you are at your core and carefully breathe life into the softest pockets of your inner world that have been formerly unreachable.
Joelle believes that with a greater understanding of the self comes a greater ability to manage and make meaning of the challenges we face in life, many of which show up in mood and relationship difficulties. While she has experience with a broad range of challenges, her special interests include anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, intimacy, trauma, grief/loss, existential issues, and working with creatively-oriented and LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples/partners.
Joelle holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University, and she received clinical training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy at the esteemed Valley Community Counseling Clinic. Her prior career path involved law, human rights, and the creative arts, each of which served to broaden her understanding of systems, culture, and the power of expression.
