Molly Tarr, LCSW, LLC
I offer individual therapy, clinical autism assessments, and clinical training for other helping professionals on neurodiversity-affirming care. I’m licensed in the State of Maine and offer both in-person or Telehealth.
I believe safety is essential to effective therapy, and so when working together your sense of safety will always be central.
I work primarily with adults and adolescents, specializing in trauma and PTSD, anxiety and depression, OCD, and disordered eating. I frequently work with autistic and ADHD clients, as well as those who identify as neurodivergent or highly sensitive. As an integrative therapist, I collaborate with clients to find the lens that fits best. This allows for a nuanced understanding of how trauma, mental health, and neurodivergence can intersect while recognizing that they are distinct experiences.
Though I'm trained in a range of evidence-based modalities, including EMDR, DBT, ACT, and am IFS (Internal Family Systems) informed, my lens is trauma sensitive, neurodiversity affirming, and strengths based. I use somatic, cognitive and mindfulness approaches, adapting my technique based on your evolving needs.
I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of New England, 2016 and a bachelor’s from the University of New Mexico in creative writing and sociology, 2012.
I appreciate how difficult it is to invite someone into your world, and so I respect the courage it takes to explore this step.
I look forward to meeting you.
I've helped individuals navigate complex experiences with:
Autism Spectrum Disorder
Work together to develop a personalized plan based on your individual needs.
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
Helping individuals build practical tools and confidence to thrive.
Trauma
Working through past experiences in a safe, supportive, and trauma-informed space.
Anxiety and Life Transitions
Providing support for anxiety, overwhelm, and life's changes with compassion.
Clinical Autism Assessment
Clinical autism assessments are designed to help individuals gain a deeper understanding of their brain wiring, needs, and how to incorporate key aspects of their neurodiversity into their personal identity. Unlike a medical autism assessment, a clinical assessment does not focus on eligibility for support services, social security, or medication management. Instead, it aims to provide insight into the individual's unique cognitive and emotional experiences.
