My Story

Hello, my name is Molly Moon!

I am a Korean American Adoptee. I was born in South Korea, and I am a proud Wisconsinite.

I had the privilege to live abroad in both Mexico and South Korea after college. Both experiences gave me a broader perspective on how BIG the world is and allowed me to make long lasting friendships. I got married before the pandemic in 2019; in my husband’s father’s church. I gained a second family. My husband comes from a Korean family household.  I come from an Irish and German household (Caucasian). Everyday we are learning from each other to create our own family culture, values and traditions.

Some hobbies I enjoy would be: board games, outdoor sports, traveling, cooking, and reading.

People ask me from time to time out of curiosity; why did I choose counseling as a profession? I chose counseling as a profession because, I want to walk along side people in their life, to help them through their difficult moments, when they feel lonely in this BIG world. Sometimes, it’s helpful to talk to someone who isn’t family, a friend, or a church member. Sometimes, it’s helpful to talk to someone who has new eyes and perspective in a safe space.

I provide Biblical Counseling to help client’s navigate through normal life experiences such as: relational struggles, depression, shame, loneliness, anger and anxiety. I created EBCC to provide Biblical counseling, for individuals looking for a supportive environment, to express their spiritual and life journey. I will honor my client’s story as we develop a counseling relationship. My prayer for clients, would be to reignite hope in their life so that they will flourish in this world.

I specifically chose the name Ezer, because of the meaning behind the word captivated me. Ezer can be defined as: “to help”, “to support”, “to defend”, and “to cherish”. Ezer is used to refer to God as a helper in times of danger or “on the battlefield”. The word Ezer is found in Psalm 33:20:

“Our soul waits for YHWH. He is our help [ez’renu עֶזְרֵ֖נוּ] and our shield.”

(Genesis 2:18, Exodus 18:4, Psalm 118:7, Psalm 121:1, Psalm 124:8, Psalm 115:9-11).

Ultimately, God is our help in this broken world. I give God authority in my sessions with client’s; because it is Him who gives wisdom and provides help.

“Grief is a universal emotion; however, each person’s grief is as unique as their fingerprint; but what everyone has in common is that no matter how they grieve, they share a need for their grief to be witnessed.”

— Kessler
