35 years of experience as a mental health therapist

Hello and welcome. My name is Mary Murphy, licensed mental health counselor with 35 years hands-on, practical approach for greater harmony, greater well-being. Experience: Full-spectrum of major mental disorders and substance abuse, along with chronic struggles that negatively impact the quality of our relationships and our own sense of fulfillment. Excessive dependency, poor handling of our own reactions to provocation and the consequences of recurring personality flaws result in strained relationships, possibly becoming rejected or hurting the others, unnecessarily. Instead, one can practice and improve our presentation resulting in far better reception we receive and value people hold for us. Win-Win is a good bet. So often people feel stuck in a rut, making the same mistakes again and again. Angry, isolated, insecure, lonely. Poor self-image with depression hold us back, as does anxiety about making changes to enhance life rather than just tolerating conditions. Conflict within the family or at work create enormous stress. Grief and loss from death of loved one, divorce, layoffs, estrangement all take a terrible toll. Starting over at any age can be accomplished, but not easily. Lingering resentment or the overwhelming panic of displacement are true obstacles. The good news is that there is real potential for improvement and I wish to help getting started on a better path; more dynamic, secure and energized. The Hebrew Book Of Proverbs offer timeless advice that can be utilized for specific relief and guidance. Beautiful words of healing and grace. The trick here is to combine this ancient philosophy with practical (clinical) tools to make it a daily habit, and then enjoy the fruits of this endeavor. Such tools are proven to assist the healing process, speed recovery, find greater success. A very worthwhile venture. The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. Time to begin. Can you get better? Indeed!

10 years of experience as a mental health therapist

I am licensed in Washington with 10 years of professional counseling experience and hundreds of proud and happier clients. I work with clients ranging in ages from young teens with weak self-understanding and self-esteem to clients in their senior years, dealing with devastating losses, deaths, grief, and disturbing changes. I have observed that anxiety is one of the greatest reasons my clients give for seeking help. Sleep difficulties and resultant depressive symptoms so often run hand-in-hand with anxiety and high levels of stress. In therapy, we work from the inside out as we explore what we know, what we can change, how we can grow and how we can better respect and give to ourselves and to others in our lives. Relationship or communication issues are often reasons given by couples or domestic partners when they are experiencing a breakdown in their coupleship. These relationships too often combine ineffective coping patterns that were actually learned early in each individual person's childhood homes. I work with my clients to create a trusting and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear or judgment. Another area is working through trauma , whether it be a one-time natural disaster or complex trauma that can so often follow family addiction, neglect, emotional abuse, mental illness or death of a sibling or parent...all traumas that drain us of personal confidence and positive self-esteem. Without those, we often have difficulty creating helpful ways of making wise decisions or even trouble being able to judge who is good for us or who might be toxic or dangerous in our life. Doing important "deep dives" to change maladaptive issues can truly help us change negative patterns, learn more effective coping strategies, change thinking patterns, and being willing to respect and value the differences in a friend or partner, resulting in greater respect for themselves and our partners. Teens far too often today are dealing with bullying, social media that begs comparison with others who look "perfect" but gradually damages a young person's self-esteem and personal confidence which is at the core of becoming and being our best selves. Finally, I enjoy working with those trying to recover from addiction and working with their families so they can take better care of themselves and their families in the face of addiction. I can help teach much about learning to feel less afraid, less trapped by their loved one's addiction. There are certain ways we can begin to live our lives emotionally more removed from the addiction that plagues our family. We can then work gently toward a healthier individual understanding and family wholeness. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy does take courage but the results of living a better, more enjoyable life is so worth the work and the effort to change. We can grow, ask the right questions, and gain pride in ourselves as we see change day by day and week by week. Hurray for getting started!!!

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Conconully?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a Conconully therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

Conconully therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of Conconully therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A Conconully therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

With a lot of people in WA, therapists may be booked out with clients.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Conconully counselor?

Before seeing your Conconully therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the therapy process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, let them know if you have any concerns about therapy or feel unsure about what to talk about. They may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy in Conconully.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine? 

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what therapy entails. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback and advice from a therapist. A Conconully licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find through therapy with a Conconully counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in Conconully, Washington can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Conconully has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online therapy to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
