Jessica Murphy , LPC

Jessica Murphy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a board-certified art therapist who has practiced for many years in community, residential, and outpatient settings. She adapts therapeutic approaches to meet individual needs and draws on a range of methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered therapy, psychodynamic therapy, trauma-focused therapy, and solution-based techniques.

She has worked extensively with people facing addiction and has provided recovery skills as a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor since 2007, with that certification issued in Arizona in 2021. Her clinical experience includes supporting individuals with panic attacks, anxiety, mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, ADHD, psychosis, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Over the years she has also supported people affected by intimate partner violence, codependence, eating disorders, and chronic pain.

Jessica aims to create a space that feels safe yet lively enough to encourage self-exploration and processing of current or past experiences. She focuses on sharing practical skills and strategies intended to reduce symptoms and stress while strengthening a person’s sense of wellness and resilience.

Is Remote Therapy a Good Fit for Individuals?

Individuals often wonder whether therapy delivered remotely can make a meaningful difference. For many common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.

One clear advantage is the flexibility it offers. People can connect with licensed professionals in the format that suits them best: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and maintain continuity of care.

Licensed professionals and therapists working online use these modalities to provide therapeutic support, and clients are free to change therapists at any time if they would prefer a different fit.
