As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, it is truly my privilege to witness the kind of strength needed to find therapy. I have special appreciation for the (often painful) moment when your present becomes harder than the fear that comes with change. I hope you’ll find acceptance and respect for exactly who you are, while I also commit to do all I can to support the desired transformation in the areas that brought us together. I try to approach all that I do with compassion, curiosity, and with a deep appreciation for our shared humanity.

We are accepting new clients and have in-person and remote availability. Whether you, or a loved one, are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues or just need a place to talk, Pillars' holistic approach to health and wellness has a treatment option that can work for you. When we started Pillars we quickly realized that to best help our clients we needed to partner with clinicians with diverse backgrounds and skills. We have remained steadfast in our efforts to create a team of clinicians with a varied specializations, so that we can be sure to effectively serve our clients and our community.

My ideal client is someone who acknowledges a problem exists, even if they don’t quite know what it is. The source of that issue can be discovered and processed through therapy, leaving the client with effective tools and skills to cope with and manage their emotions.

Many clients come to me wanting to stop the battle between who they “should be” and who they are. They know it’s time to let go of the shame and inner critic that lives in their head all day and night. They’ve probably read the self-help books and maybe even been to therapy before, but nothing has gotten them to the bottom of their concerns and actually created the growth and change they’re looking for.

My name is Katherine Murphy and I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to providing a safe space for my clients to realize peace and happiness.

I work with all kinds of clients, and I particularly enjoy working with people who feel "other" or like they don't fit in. I'm also deeply familiar with men's mental health issues, LGBTQIA issues, and issues of trauma.

Let me introduce myself. I am Jeannette Murphy. I bring to you more than thirty years of counseling experience with the treatment of Individuals, Couples,Children and Families, both individually and in groups. My counseling is designed to help you with a wide variety of personal, marital and family issues. I specialize using Brief Solution-Based Treatment. This treatment method is effective whether you come alone or with other family members.

As a therapist, I partner with the person I am working with and we collaboratively explore options that may fit your needs and bring you where you want to be, and how you want to be in your life. I am available for TeleHealth Sessions throughout Colorado. If you are wanting to tackle issues such as Addiction, Codependency, Trauma, Sexuality, Unmanageable Stress and Anxiety, Gambling, ADD/ADHD, Feeling Intimidated by a Life Transition ("What is next?") or Feeling Stuck and wanting to make Personal or Career Changes we may want to meet. I use Brainspotting, talk therapies, and a variety of other treatment methods like CBT, MI, & DBT.

I want to assist individuals and families in making positive and lasting change in their lives. I am supportive and direct in my practice and have been able to assist others with moving forward and toward their best self. I work to assist clients with identifying common stressors or barriers and identifying strategies for overcoming those thoughts, feelings, and challenges that are holding them back. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults and families to learn strategies to better manage stressors related to life change.

I specialize in helping clients with complex needs for change-making. Even the common reasons that we seek therapy – depression, anxiety & strained relationships - can become overwhelming. Especially, when we add conditions like non-typical brain processing (ADHD), unique ways of thinking (Asperger’s/ Autism Spectrum) & surviving chronic trauma (e.g., Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or Dissociative Disorders). These challenges require educating ourselves about our condition, learning to believe in ourselves, developing self-soothing skills & retraining our brain structures that operate in survival mode.

No matter what brought you here, you deserve to feel better and live the life you want. I specialize in working with young adults, therapists, LGBTQ+ folks, and perfectionists/high achievers. I'm also trained in EMDR for processing trauma. I teach coping skills to calm the brain and body in order to manage emotions. You'll learn to reframe negative self-talk, manage stress, reduce perfectionism, & improve self-esteem. I also empower folks to set boundaries and prioritize self-care. We'll work on breaking patterns, assertive communication, and forming healthy habits.
