Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Brittany Murphy, LCSW, LCDC a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor. I am licensed to practice social work in Colorado, New Jersey, Texas, and Washington. I earned my Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Houston. Prior to becoming a therapist/social worker, I worked in the corporate business world for several years. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I have experience working with adolescents and adults in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I provide individual and family therapy, and I also enjoy running psychotherapy and skills classes.


I use various approaches including psychodynamic theory, Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT); Radically Open Dialectal Behavior Therapy (RO-DBT), Neuro-Affective Relational Model (NARM); Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT); and Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT).

What you can expect from our first session

My clients can expect me to work to empower and support them by aiding them in better understanding themselves and their behavior, creating a safe space for them to process, work through, and heal trauma, enhancing knowledge and understanding of evidence-based tools for healthier coping, and allowing space for the exploration, identification, and application of solutions for current problems.
