Amy Murray (LCSW)

I am licensed in North Carolina with 17 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, trauma, spiritual discovery, & depression. Are you experiencing difficulties related to depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship problems, work-related stress, or adjusting to a life change? I will work with you to help you to develop skills for coping with these difficulties. I believe that each individual has the strength, wisdom, and ability to heal and to thrive. I will encourage you to embrace and rely on your own inner strength and wisdom and will also guide you in developing new approaches to handling life’s stressors. To assist you in your healing journey I incorporate many different approaches in therapy. My practice style is an eclectic blend of primarily mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapy; solution focused therapy; yoga-based breathing and movement techniques; and narrative therapy. Exploring your thoughts, behaviors, belief systems, inner dialogue, somatic responses, and emotional and relationship patterns helps you to understand how you interact with people and situations in your life and what you believe about yourself. We can work together so that you build a set of skills for coping with stressors and thriving in your life. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
