Molly Techau, LMFT, LPCC

Molly Techau is a licensed marriage and family therapist and licensed professional clinical counselor in Kentucky. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, and depression. Molly aims to offer calm presence and practical support for everyday struggles and thought patterns.

She began counseling after a personal experience with grief following her father’s death. That experience shaped why she entered the field and how she sits with people in hard times. Molly draws on seven years of practice to support clients as they sort through feelings and daily habits that get in the way of living well.

Molly favors a collaborative style. She works alongside clients to set goals and uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. Sessions focus on concrete steps people can try between meetings, along with talking through patterns of thinking and behavior.

She has experience helping people with family-of-origin issues, blended family concerns, adoption and foster care matters, and relationship communication problems. Other areas she addresses include caregiver stress, codependency, body image, eating and food-related issues, and feelings of emptiness.

Outside the office she lives in Kentucky with her husband and four large dogs. She enjoys running, writing, leading Bible study, mentoring, and quiet time journaling with coffee. Her personal history informs a warm, steady approach in session.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Many therapists use evidence-based techniques to help people reframe unhelpful thoughts and change everyday habits. Cognitive-style approaches focus on noticing negative thought patterns and testing them with practical exercises to reduce anxiety and low mood. Behavioral approaches focus on small, repeatable actions - like routine changes and skills practice - that can shift how someone feels day to day and improve relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose techniques that fit their goals and preferences, adjusting methods over time based on what helps most. This is a team effort where feedback and trial help guide the plan.

Session formats are not listed in the supplied biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy useful for fitting sessions into a busy week, keeping continuity during life transitions, and doing focused skill work between meetings. Online work can make it easier to schedule short check-ins, avoid travel time, and use session time for concrete practice that carries into daily routines.
