About Jeffrey

Jeffrey Murrah is an LPC with more than four decades of experience using psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral methods to help people navigate grief, addiction, relationship strains, and life transitions.

Background and approach

He draws on a long career across settings such as hospitals, shelters, schools, foster care, and outpatient clinics to offer perspective rooted in practical experience. His approach emphasizes listening carefully, helping clients uncover patterns, and developing concrete skills to manage anxiety, depression, anger, and other concerns.

Having lived through blended family dynamics and long-term caregiving, he brings personal insight to work with family problems, communication struggles, infidelity recovery, and caregiver stress. Clients often find his style thought-provoking and focused on growth, as he blends exploration of past influences with present-focused strategies.

Jeffrey frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at identifying strengths, reducing harmful patterns, and building new ways of coping. Based in Texas and practicing in English, he has supported people with a wide range of issues including addictions, ADHD, trauma, bipolar disorder, parenting difficulties, sleep problems, career challenges, and compassion fatigue.

Prospective clients who are ready to make practical changes will find an experienced clinician who pairs reflection with action to help move toward clearer goals.

Therapeutic Approaches Applied to Online Care

Jeffrey uses psychodynamic therapy to explore how past experiences and relationships shape current feelings and behaviors, which can be useful for understanding patterns behind grief, relationship struggles, and some forms of addiction. He also employs cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and teach practical skills for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing impulsive behaviors. These methods together allow for both insight into underlying issues and development of concrete strategies to change daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to clarify goals, assess what methods feel most helpful, and adjust techniques over time so treatment aligns with evolving needs and preferences rather than relying on a single method from the outset.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provides flexibility for different lifestyles and schedules. Online formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care when life gets busy, reduce travel time, and choose the communication style that best supports progress. Licensed professionals can adapt psychodynamic reflection and CBT skill-building effectively to virtual formats to support meaningful change.
