About

Mary (Molly) Work PLLC

Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience providing psychotherapy to adults, couples, and people with disabilities.

People come to therapy for many reasons—you may be struggling with anxiety or depression, experiencing grief, dealing with chronic illness or disability, or trying to rebuild trust in a relationship. My role is to partner with you in a respectful, trust-filled space where you feel genuinely heard and supported.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) serving clients across Washington D.C. and California, I work with individuals and couples to build practical tools, heal past wounds, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Respectful, Informed Therapy for People with Disabilities

A Specialized Focus

Disability-Affirming Care

People with disabilities face the same life, career, and relationship challenges as everyone else—along with an additional layer of societal barriers, systemic nuances, and personal realities that deserve informed, respectful attention.

As a clinician with lived experience with cerebral palsy, I bring true clinical understanding and lived insight—not assumptions—to our work. I specialize in providing empowering, disability-affirming therapy that centers self-autonomy, accessibility, and respect.
