About Erin
Erin Murphy is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Kentucky with ten years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, ADHD, addictions, grief, depression, bipolar, career questions, and LGBT-related issues.
Erin earned a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology and an Education Specialist degree from the University of Kentucky, and she also holds a Master of Arts in Philosophy. She notes recent continuing education focused on care for neurodivergent people, and she is experienced supporting people across a wide range of mental health concerns and life problems.
Her practice is person-centered and non-directive, which means clients lead the conversation while she offers support without judgment. Erin identifies as an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) provider and draws techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and other evidence-based approaches as useful for each person.
Erin combines psychoeducation with adapted therapy techniques to help people better understand how avoidance and stigma affect their lives. She aims to clarify practical skills and strategies so people can move toward goals that matter to them.

How Erin’s therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values-based action. It helps people reduce struggle with anxious thoughts and take steps that matter to them despite discomfort. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thinking and tests different behaviors to change patterns of anxiety and avoidance. These methods are often useful for social anxiety, stress, and mood concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erin collaborates with people to pick what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She brings ACT principles alongside CBT and attachment-informed ideas and adapts techniques together with each person rather than imposing a single method.
The biography lists phone, video, and chat 45-minute sessions during weekday hours. If you plan to try online sessions, confirm the exact options and times when you schedule. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people choose whether to be on camera or not. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver the same kinds of skills training, behavioral experiments, and values-based planning that happen in person.
