About Erin
Erin Murphy is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Kentucky who centers therapy on each person's goals and lived experience. She uses a person-centered, nonjudgmental style and encourages clients to guide the conversation while offering tools and observations that fit their needs. Erin works with adults on issues like anxiety, depression, stress, codependency, grief, and relationship concerns.
She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and related approaches, blending techniques to match what each person finds helpful. Erin pays attention to neurodiversity and LGBTQ+ concerns and aims to reduce the harm of stigma and avoidance. Sessions combine practical skills, psychoeducation, and talk to help people move toward clearer values and everyday functioning.
Erin holds a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology and an Education Specialist degree from the University of Kentucky, plus a Master of Arts in Philosophy from the same university. She brings ten years of clinical experience and ongoing learning focused on neurodivergent-affirming care.
She offers 45-minute sessions and adapts techniques to match a person's strengths and goals. The practice emphasizes collaboration: the person in therapy is treated as the expert on their own life while the therapist offers guidance and strategies.
To start, prospective clients follow the platform's matching process and schedule sessions through the dashboard. Erin encourages people to reach out with questions before booking so they can decide if her approach feels like the right fit.
Approaches used in online therapy and how they help
Erin draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying personal values and learning small, practical steps that help people live in line with what matters to them. ACT can help with anxiety, depression, and codependency by shifting attention toward meaningful action rather than avoidance.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships influence current patterns. This approach can help people notice how they connect with others and practice different ways of relating when old patterns cause distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erin treats choosing methods as a collaborative process, listening to goals and trying out techniques that fit each person's strengths and needs. She tailors exercises and homework to what actually fits into a client's routine and priorities.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking since options are listed on the therapist's profile. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with Erin about scheduling times and formats that match your day-to-day routine so sessions are practical and useful.
