Katie Murphy, MS, NCC
Background
I am a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) and currently working towards my license in Professional Counseling (LPC). I received my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Penn State University and my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from West Chester University.
Approach
My approach to counseling is person centered and strength-based. I also incorporate evidenced-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to support people on their journeys of growth. My goals are to 1) help you gain insight and awareness of how your thoughts, feelings, behaviors and experiences both present and past impacts you & 2) help you create pathways to positive and adaptive change.
I value establishing a strong therapeutic alliance with each client. I am committed to providing a warm, safe, and empathetic space for clients to work on their personal growth and healing. I understand that taking this step can be challenging, however, I want you to know that there is relief and reward on the other side for when you are ready.
