About Misty
Misty Moler is a licensed clinical mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD, and life transitions. She offers practical, down-to-earth guidance for relationship and intimacy concerns, career stress, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. Her style is warm, collaborative, and interactive so people feel respected and heard.

Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with mood disorders, anger, communication problems, and the fallout from separation or domestic violence. Misty leans on solution-focused strategies and cognitive behavioral techniques to make therapy concrete. Sessions often include short assignments or handouts to connect what happens in the session with real life.
Role-play and thought pattern work are commonly used to practice new skills between meetings. Her approach centers on strengths and empowerment. She helps people identify their own answers and builds a plan around their goals.
Treatment plans are individualized and discussed collaboratively so progress is measurable and practical. Misty is qualified to provide career-related counseling and administers career inventories such as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. She emphasizes small, doable steps and offers resources clients can use outside sessions to keep momentum going.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Misty commonly uses solution-focused methods to help clients set clear goals and find practical next steps. This approach is brief and action-oriented, which works well for people who want focused change and clear progress measures.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thinking and practice different responses. CBT often includes brief homework assignments and role-play to turn new ideas into habits and to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adapt methods as needed. Clients and therapist check progress together and adjust the plan when something isn’t working.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a brief check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick follow-ups, short coaching-style guidance, or when writing helps organize thoughts. These options make scheduling more flexible and let people fit therapy into busy routines.
