I’m Brandy Murray, LCSW... and if there’s one thing I’ve learned in this work, it’s that connection heals more than any technique ever could.

​

My speciality is working with overwhelmed, high-achieving women who grew up in emotionally complex families untangle shame, quiet their inner critic, and learn how to set boundaries without guilt. 

 

My approach is grounded in genuine connection, deep respect, and attunement. I listen closely to words, tone, body language, and what’s unspoken, so you feel understood and never alone in the process.

​

​My sessions are personalized and flexible, and they can be held in person in Illinois or virtually across Illinois and Missouri.  Sessions will be tailored to fit your goals, blending EMDR, Trauma-Focused CBT, Motivational Interviewing and Art Therapy. Together, we use the tools that best suit your needs, history, and personality.

​

My clients describe our work as safe, empowering, and transformative, and I think that’s because therapy here isn’t about "fixing" you. It’s about remembering who you are beneath the pain and learning to trust that part of you again.
