Alaina Murphy

My communication style

I'm open-minded and not easily shocked. I can be direct therapeutically, but I don't claim to be the expert on your life. You can expect mutual respect, collaboration, support, and open-mindedness when working with me.

My journey to mental healthcare

As a teenager, I recognized my desire to assist others, inspired by support I received from counselors during challenging moments. I'm committed to lifelong learning and creating an environment where people feel comfortable discussing concerns and are truly listened to.

My goals for you

Goal setting is a personal journey we'll approach collaboratively. We'll work together to pinpoint areas you wish to change and determine the best strategies to reach your objectives. Change doesn't occur instantaneously, and I advocate for exercising self-grace throughout the process.

Our first session

The first session allows me to understand who you are and your expectations for therapy. I recognize it can be nerve-wracking. You can share what feels comfortable, knowing more information helps me assist you better. We'll complete an assessment and identify issues to address together.

I identify as...

• Female
• Caucasian or White
