About Molly
Molly Tonks helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, depression and major life changes. She supports those dealing with trauma, grief, compassion fatigue, intimacy and self‑esteem issues. Molly also works with concerns around eating, sleeping, parenting, anger, career and ADHD.
She sees people who are LGBT and those coping with family difficulties or separation. Molly follows a client‑centred approach that puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. She listens without judgement and encourages clients to lead the conversation.
How Molly works
This makes space for people to notice patterns, understand feelings and decide what matters to them. With three years of experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Molly brings a calm and steady presence. She offers online sessions so people can fit counselling around work, family or other commitments.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. In a typical session Molly lets clients set the pace and topics. She asks open questions and reflects what she hears to help make sense of difficult moments.
Together they look at practical coping ideas and new ways to manage stress and emotions. People begin by choosing a plan and completing a short matching questionnaire. Scheduling is arranged according to the therapist’s availability and the subscription can be cancelled at any time.

Online support options
Client‑centred care and online counselling
Client‑Centred Therapy focuses on understanding the person’s experience rather than giving advice. The counsellor listens deeply, reflects what they hear and supports the client to find their own answers; this is helpful for anxiety, depression and relationship worries. Molly’s online practice uses the client‑centred approach to make conversations feel natural, even when they happen remotely. The therapist and client work together to choose what to focus on and how fast to move. Deciding the right approach is a collaborative process based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences. Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and mirror in‑person sessions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text‑based messaging suit brief check‑ins, ongoing reflection between sessions or when a shorter, written format fits into a busy day. Many registered or accredited professionals use these formats to make counselling more accessible. Molly will help clients pick the format and adapt the client‑centred approach so it works for their circumstances.Start online instead of waiting
