In my therapy practice, I seek to hold space for clients, the space in which it is safe to explore previously hidden aspects of self. It is my greatest passion in life to see clients heal from the inside out. I see the act of seeking therapy, in order to embark on a path toward personal-growth and greater effectiveness in all aspects of life, as a sign of strength and health. I believe that through acceptance, many issues may be better resolved as they are brought into the light of awareness.

I am associated with Headway and am now in-network with the following insurers: Aetna, Blue Shield, Carelon, Cigna, Quest Behavioral Health and Magellan.
My focus is on the treatment of trauma, and how trauma manifests itself in each of my clients' lives. Untreated trauma often shows itself as substance abuse, depression, compulsive overeating, or compulsive sexual behavior. Trauma and substance abuse may make it difficult for us to make vital life transitions and transformations. We get stuck... so to speak. If this sounds like you, I want to provide a safe space to explore your concerns. I have both weekday video sessions and live Saturday sessions available. I primarily use Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to treat trauma.

Dr. Kevin Murphy
Psychologist, PsyD

With nearly 20 of clinical experience, I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, phobias and addictions. I use evidence-based therapies, guided by a humanistic approach. Compassion is central to my work, and I take care to avoid stigmatizing language, especially in the treatment of addiction. I don’t view people as “addicts,” but as those living a life of suffering. At its core, I believe the process of therapy builds resilience and restores a sense of inner strength.

If you're reading this, you might be feeling burned out, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that are hard to break. Maybe you’ve always been the one to keep it together, but lately, that’s felt harder to do. If you’re dealing with anxiety, perfectionism, or just feel like something is off, therapy can be a space to slow down and feel understood. Often, the ways we learned to cope, especially in childhood or after painful experiences, can make life harder over time. You may find yourself overthinking, shutting down, or being hard on yourself without fully knowing why.

My personal journey as a therapist began from my own frustrations in relationships. I knew communication was important, but I didn't have the skills to connect more deeply with the people I loved. Going through my own therapy changed that — and it shapes how I work with clients every day. I earned my M.A. in Marriage and Family Therapy from Wheaton College and have been in practice since 2018. I work with individual adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, marriage or partner conflict, women's issues, maternal mental health, and major life transitions. I'm licensed in both Hawaii and California.
