Family Therapy for healing old wounds and coping with change

Molly approaches therapy with the belief that clients are the experts of their own lives. Her role is to help create a space where insight, curiosity, and growth can naturally unfold, without judgment or pressure to “have it all figured out.” Clients often experience her as calm, grounded, and deeply attentive; someone who listens closely and supports them in making sense of complex thoughts, emotions, and relational patterns.
Her therapeutic style is gentle, strengths-based, and collaborative. Molly integrates multiple therapeutic modalities to support deeper exploration and meaningful change, tailoring her approach to each client’s needs, goals, and lived experience. She works with individuals, couples, families, and significant others who are motivated to better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and build lives that feel more connected and fulfilling. She is trained in the Gottman Method Level One and enjoys supporting couples and relational systems through periods of growth, transition, and repair.
Molly is especially passionate about working with clients navigating life transitions, relationship and family challenges, grief and loss, and anxiety. She is committed to providing affirming, inclusive care and warmly welcomes clients of all gender identities, sexual orientations, races, religions, and cultural backgrounds. She is a dedicated ally to the LGBTQIA+ community and prioritizes creating a therapeutic space where all parts of a client’s identity are respected and valued.
In addition to her individual and relational work, Molly has a deep appreciation for the power of group therapy and shared connection. She believes healing doesn’t have to happen in isolation and is passionate about fostering collective growth and community-based support. She serves as the Director of Membership for the Atlanta Group Psychotherapy Society (AGPS) and is a member of the American Group Psychotherapy Association (AGPA).

For more than a decade, Farzana has supported clients through the nuanced, often-demanding terrain of interpersonal stress, major life transitions, identity exploration, and the long-lasting impact of early childhood experiences. Her therapeutic style is warm, accepting, collaborative, and trauma-informed, with particular care for the cultural, relational, and systemic forces that shape a person’s sense of self.

Farzana is especially attuned to how family histories and early attachments influence adult romantic relationships — a dynamic that often becomes more visible during wedding planning or the transition into marriage. As a child of immigrant parents and a South Asian woman of color, she brings lived experience, cultural humility, and an expansive perspective to help clients understand where their relational patterns come from, and how to grow beyond them. She invites clients to explore identity, unlearn old narratives, and build relationships that feel grounded and authentic.

Her clinical work is integrative, drawing from psychodynamic therapy, attachment-based approaches, multicultural counseling, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She is trained in the Gottman Method Level One and is also a certified PREPARE/ENRICH premarital and marital counselor.

In addition to her clinical practice, Farzana has contributed to mental health research within the South Asian community, supported the development of a mental health expansion clinic, and provides clinical supervision to Master’s-level counseling students.

Farzana is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York State and can provide telehealth therapy in Florida. She pursued her Master’s degree in mental health counseling from Fordham University.

Landis’s work is rooted in a simple truth: even the happiest moments in life can feel overwhelming. After planning her own wedding in 2015, she became deeply curious about why otherwise grounded, secure people suddenly found themselves flooded with stress, identity questions, family dynamics, and relational challenges. She quickly realized that wedding planning doesn’t create new problems—it amplifies the patterns, pressures, and emotions that bring many people to therapy at other points in their lives. And it does so all at once.

In 2018, Landis founded AisleTalk, the first therapy and coaching practice dedicated to supporting engaged individuals and couples through the emotional experience of wedding planning and the transition into marriage. She believes wedding planning is not just about logistics—it’s a major life transition marked by identity shifts, family expectations, vulnerability, visibility, and the collision of two personal histories. Some people meet that with excitement; others feel overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure where to turn. Landis sees this period as a powerful window for growth: a chance to build emotional tools, strengthen communication, and lay the groundwork for a resilient, connected partnership.

With more than ten years of clinical experience, Landis is passionate about helping clients navigate relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, family-of-origin patterns, life transitions, birth trauma, parenting stress, adult ADHD, and concerns related to sexuality and gender identity. She has worked across a wide range of settings—including schools, community mental health, eating disorder centers, crisis shelters, and university counseling—which allows her to support clients with depth, nuance, and flexibility.

Landis’s therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in genuine connection. She believes the therapeutic relationship is the foundation for meaningful change and works to create a space where clients feel supported, understood, and empowered. Her integrative approach blends cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), person-centered therapy, emotionally focused therapy (EFT), mindfulness, and psychodynamic principles. She values open feedback and tailors her work to each client’s unique needs, goals, identities, and lived experience.

Landis has been featured as a wedding stress and relationship expert in BRIDES, TIME Magazine, The New York Times, The New York Post, and dozens of other media outlets. She also served as an inaugural member of the BRIDES Review Board as a Relationship and Mental Health Expert, helping shape national conversations around wedding wellbeing.

Originally from Miami, Landis moved to New York City to pursue graduate training at Columbia University, earning master’s degrees in Counseling Psychology (MA) and Mental Health Counseling (EdM). She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia, and a Registered Telehealth Provider in Florida.

Landis now manages AisleTalk remotely from Atlanta, where she lives with her partner of fifteen years, two young children, and two rescue pups. When she’s not working, you’ll find her searching for the perfect oat milk latte, discovering new restaurants, taking long walks, soaking up the sun, and celebrating any day with fewer than two toddler tantrums.
