Self-help author and student counselor Mollie Player has one goal: to help people accomplish ordinary feats of great internal strength. These feats include: living simply, parenting peacefully, achieving personal goals, overcoming depression and anxiety, maintaining healthy relationships, increasing self-acceptance, increasing inner peace and more.

Currently, Player is working toward her Master's of Science in Counseling at Divine Mercy University, a private Virginia-based institution based. Their top-tier program uses a person-centered, integrated approach that emphasizes human dignity, nonjudgmental regard and full-life flourishing.

Player lives in Seattle, Washington with her three children. She loves walking, snorkeling, playing volleyball, growing trees, learning new things and conversing at length about psychology, spirituality and politics.
