Getting to know Michael Murray

Are you feeling invalidated, unseen, unheard? You are not alone! I guide my clients gently and teach them how to offer themselves more compassion and empathy for their experiences. My goal is to help you feel that your emotions and experiences are valid, your voice matters, and your unique personality and strengths matter in the world. My approach When you're working with me, I prioritize our connection first and foremost and continuously ask you, "How are you feeling about me as your therapist?" Your feedback is always welcome and encouraged! I love using EMDR to help people transform their trauma and find the healing they've been searching for. My focus Regardless of your age, sexuality, gender, race, or ethnicity, you are welcomed with me and you are uniquely valued and listened to. I like my clients to know that I am a human being before I am a therapist, with my own struggles and challenges. My communication style One of the first things I tell every client I work with is this: "You set the pace for our sessions always." However much time you need to build rapport with me, I will support you by listening attentively to your needs and preferred style of communication in your therapy sessions. I do my best to tailor my style uniquely to each client. My journey to mental healthcare My journey began by seeing the value of good support and a safe space to share my experiences openly. I continue to be inspired by clients who are committed to their own journey toward healing. I believe hope is possible for everyone who puts their mind to it and has the right support in their corner. My goals for you The best way I like to think about the therapeutic relationship is a collaboration. You are the expert on YOU! No one knows your life/experiences/stressors/triggers/etc...more than you. You bring your expertise on yourself, and I bring my expertise on facilitating change and healing. Together, we will collaborate on goals for your treatment.
