Getting to know Victoria Murphy

Victoria Murphy is a compassionate and client-centered Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Fairbanks, Alaska specializing in trauma-informed care for survivors of sexual assault and combat-related PTSD. With a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, a Master’s degree from the University of Hawaii at Manoa, and her Registered Yoga Teacher Training (RYT200), she integrates holistic healing practices into her therapy, focusing on PTSD treatments for adults. My approach Victoria is trained in evidence-based methods like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE), Eye Movement Desensitization, and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) and combines these Western interventions with cultural-based healing techniques to empower individuals. Committed to mental health advocacy, she strives to reduce stigma and promote accessible services for all via speaking engagements and community volunteer work. My focus Victoria's core specialty is military, veterans, police, and first responders experiencing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Additionally, Victoria frequently works with individuals who have experienced sexual trauma. Integrating trauma-informed, evidence-based methods with compassion and holistic interventions, Victoria curates a welcoming environment to process, heal, and grow, from the roots up. My communication style Victoria's communication style is rooted in compassion but is direct. Her goal is to create an environment that is warm, safe, and consistent, yet provides a gentle challenge to grow, change, and heal. Others have referred to her style as "real and refreshing." My journey to mental healthcare Victoria was drawn to becoming a provider due to witnessing a close family member experience a mental health crisis. Victoria fundamentally believes that mental health does not define a person, nor does it label them anything other than "human."
