Stacy Murphy is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Wyoming. She brings seven years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and anger. Stacy focuses on practical, everyday steps clients can use right away. Her work tends to be collaborative and respectful. She listens first, then helps people name what matters most and choose small changes that fit their life. Sessions focus on clear goals and skills people can try between meetings. Stacy uses a mix of approaches, including client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior skills, emotionally-focused work, and mindfulness. She combines these methods to match each person’s needs rather than relying on a single tool. Many clients come seeking help with relationship strain, parenting stress, addiction concerns, trauma or abuse recovery, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, career decisions, or coping with big life changes. Stacy helps people sort through these issues in manageable steps and build resilience. Her style is straightforward and compassionate. She aims to create a non-judgmental space where people can safely talk through painful feelings, practice new skills, and track progress. People who want a practical, supportive approach to emotional challenges may find her helpful.

How Stacy Uses Approaches in Online Work

Client-centered therapy centers the person in the room. Stacy follows the client's lead, listens closely, and helps people identify what matters most to them. This approach helps when someone feels stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and the actions that follow. Stacy uses CBT to help people notice patterns, try small behavior changes, and track results. This can be useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress management.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers practical skills for emotions and relationships. It focuses on distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and clearer communication, which can help when feelings feel intense or unpredictable.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stacy will discuss options together and tailor techniques to the client's needs, goals, and preferences. The plan can change as progress is made, and clients are invited to give feedback throughout the process.

Confirm session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Ask about the available session formats when scheduling to choose what fits best.
