Dr. Murphy has helped me ALOT in just two sessions. Helping me develop better social skills and help with communication with my family members.
She is awesome
Dr.Murphy is very professional. I am very comfortable talking to her. She does her best with me; I don't have the best track record at wanting to seek help with my emotions. Super patient and kind.
Dr. Murphy has been amazing to work with. She's given me great tools to combat my anxiety and helps me work through whatever I need. She is easy to talk to and I feel like I can share whatever I need to with her.
Dr. Murphy really takes the time to understand your struggles from all sorts of perspectives. She makes you feel comfortable like you’re talking with a friend but gives you solid advice, outlooks and ways to help find solutions or ease up on situations you’re in.

Dr. Murphy is amazing. I’ve been working with her for more than six months and have not had a complaint. Very professional and always on time. She will make herself available if needed and is always on top of things.
So far I am enjoying our interactions and feel good about the support. It has only been a couple of weeks, but I appreciate the ease of access and prompt replies. I would recommend this service to anyone, and Dr. Murphy specifically.
Dr. Murphy has been responsive and supportive and I truly appreciate her time with me!
I'm grateful for my time with Dr. Murphy and intend to re-enroll with her specifically once I financially re-stabilize. When prompted with the cancellation of my subscription she even referred me to some of her trusted colleagues and for that I'm grateful. Thank you for what you do.
Dr. Murphy's been amazing. The live video sessions are very helpful, but for me, because writing is so therapeutic for helping me sort out my thoughts, the ongoing chat dialog has been a God-send. I've been going through some tough stuff lately, and we chat daily, sometimes several times a day if I need it. She's responsive, kind, listens well, and offers excellent ideas and support.
I was a little skeptical about online therapy! But, I can honestly say I enjoy it! Dr. Murphy was quick to pick up what areas I needed some help with. She has been neutral and respecting when I reach out. She makes me feel like a priority, which is wonderful!
The short time I've been with Dr. Murphy- she's been very nice and patient adapting to my schedule and needs. She's very easy to talk to and encourages you to be better.
She is excellent, very quick to respond to my messages and always extremely supportive. I can't imagine having been paired with anyone else.

Dr. Murphy is great. She always is there to talk about what I need. Checks in if I haven't responded. And makes sure I have what I need. 10/10 she gives me what I need out of a councilor
She's been a great listener and given me solid practical advice in my current moments of crisis. I hope to continue working on healing when things are less crisis mode, and Dr. Murphy's approach seems to work for me.
Dr. Murphy is exactly the kind of therapist I needed. She is kind, patient, understanding, and knowledgeable. She listens to everything I have to say and empathizes with my struggles, while also offering insightful advice. She writes back often. I am so grateful for her help.

Dr. Murphy is excellent. Though I haven't been working with her for very long, I feel as though she is easy to trust and genuinely cares.
Dr Murphy is very friendly and gives very good advices. I am very satisfied with her for now.
My experience with Dr. Kate has been incredibly helpful thus far. She is available and responsive, so logistically she is easy to work with. On a deeper level, she is very understanding and has helped me realize a few things about myself that I wasn’t aware of. Her focus is holistic, goal-oriented, and 100% personalized. I plan to continue my relationship with BetterHelp and Dr. Kate for the long-term.
