About Molli

Dr. Molli Mercer is a Florida LMHC with 13 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, LGBT concerns, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and life purpose questions. She speaks English and works from Florida.

Mercer earned a master's degree in Couples and Family Counseling and a doctorate in Counselor Education and Supervision. She draws on those training experiences to help people talk through relationship struggles and intimacy concerns. Mercer also addresses addiction and anxiety by helping clients find practical, manageable steps.

Her approach emphasizes straightforward problem solving and building healthier ways of relating. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a solution-focused orientation to set concrete goals. Sessions typically involve identifying patterns, trying new ways of communicating, and practicing skills between meetings.

Mercer pays attention to issues tied to attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care, and blended family stress. She also works with people exploring BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture, and with those coping with caregiver strain, codependency, or relationship control and commitment problems.

People usually come for help with communication problems, breakup or divorce stress, and intimacy challenges. The process starts by clarifying what matters most to the client and then testing small changes that fit their daily life.

Evidence-based approaches and how they work online

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a solution-focused orientation. Solution-focused methods concentrate on specific, achievable goals and on small changes that make daily life feel more manageable. These approaches are often helpful for stress, anxiety, and relationship or intimacy problems where practical steps matter.

She also draws on relational and attachment-focused work to examine communication patterns and attachment concerns. This type of work looks at how past relationship experiences shape current reactions and helps clients practice new ways of relating. It can be useful for attachment issues, abandonment, and blended family stresses.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help identify which techniques fit best based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. That process is collaborative and may shift as clients try strategies and report what helps.
