More about Erin
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LPCC
My name is Erin Murphy (she\they). I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - Supervisor (LPCC-S). I received my Master's Degree and Education Specialist Degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Kentucky. I am licensed to practice in the Commonwealth of Kentucky and can work with residents of the Commonwealth. I have been practicing therapy for over eight years.
I work with individuals on both long and short-term goals and with mental health issues that range from ADHD to anxiety and depression to stress and trauma.
Outside of strictly mental health counseling, I also offer counseling for problems in living, personal issues, relationship difficulties, and similar personal and interpersonal problems. I work to provide an open and welcoming space so that we can better understand you, your specific strengths, as well as your goals.
To learn more about my and what therapy is like with me, you can click my name on this page.
I offer 45 minute sessions (phone or video), Monday through Friday. Sessions start at 10 am and continue on the hour (except lunch) until my last session, which starts at 6 pm (typically). If you are interested in working with me you can schedule a session through your dashboard. If you need a session that falls outside my typical 10am-6pm schedule, please let me know. It is possible we could work something out.
Please feel free to message me, if you have any questions or concerns.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
