Ryan Murphy
(He/Him/His)
Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC)
As a DBT therapist I can help you regulate emotions, improve interpersonal effects , and develop coping skills to reduce impulsive actions.
I have been a therapist for 18 years working with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, stress, impulsivity, substance abuse , and gambling. I believe the goal of therapy is to make the uncomfortable comfortable. As a DBT therapist I can help you develop coping skills to reduce impulsive actions, regulate emotions, be an effective communicator , and help you stay closer to your goals and values.
