About Erin

Erin Murphy (she/they) is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor-Supervisor (LPCC-S) practicing in Kentucky who offers trauma-informed, individualized mental health care for adults. Their practice emphasizes affirming approaches for neurodivergent people, LGBTQ+ clients, kink-aware individuals, and those in ethically non-monogamous relationships, while attending to each person’s unique strengths and goals.

Erin holds a Master of Science in Education (MS.Ed.) and an Education Specialist degree (Ed.S.) in Counseling Psychology from the University of Kentucky, along with a Master of Arts in Philosophy from the same institution. They are certified as an ADHD Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP) and as an Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist (ASDCS), and have formerly held certifications as a Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP) and Clinical Telemental Health Provider (CTMH).

Erin practices with a non-directive, person-centered stance that respects clients as experts on their own lives. As an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) provider, they integrate techniques from multiple evidence-based approaches and adapt interventions to fit each person’s needs. Their work is trauma-informed and tailored to reduce the effects of stigma and avoidance while supporting practical change.

Erin has experience addressing a broad range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress and burnout, trauma, interpersonal and work-related difficulties, and other problems in daily living. They combine psychoeducation with modified traditional therapy techniques to validate experiences and help clients move toward their goals.

Erin offers 45-minute sessions by phone, video, or chat Monday through Friday. Typical session hours begin at 10:00 AM and the last session of the day starts at 6:00 PM. Clients can schedule through their dashboard, and Erin may be able to accommodate requests outside the usual schedule when possible. Prospective clients are encouraged to send a message with any questions or concerns.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Erin Murphy often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which helps people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. ACT is helpful for stress, anxiety, depression, and patterns of avoidance. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relational experiences shape current relationships and emotional responses, making it useful for attachment issues, intimacy-related concerns, and relationship struggles. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and collaboration, creating space for clients to lead sessions and identify their own goals; this approach supports self-esteem, grief, and life transitions.

Finding the best therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Erin works collaboratively with each person to determine which strategies and techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts methods over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility in how sessions are delivered, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access consistent support from a distance while working with a therapist who adapts methods to the online format.
