Molly Potel, MS
Intake Coordinator
My name is Molly, and I serve as an Intake Coordinator with Synergy Counseling Group. When prospective clients reach out, I guide them through the intake process with empathy, compassion, and a person-centered approach. I recognize the courage it takes to seek support, and I consider it a privilege to help clients take that first step. Through active listening and thoughtful collaboration, I work to understand each individual's unique needs and connect them with the clinician best suited to support their goals.
I am also a fifth-year doctoral student in psychology at the University at Albany, where I specialize in psychotherapy research and the study of family relationships. My clinical experience spans university, hospital, and community-based settings, where I have worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds and with a wide range of concerns.Outside of my academic and professional work, I am passionate about the restorative benefits of nature. When I'm not working or studying, you'll often find me outdoors.
