Bridget Stevens-Murphy, LICSW

Attachment-informed care and online therapy options

Bridget uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people notice how they seek closeness, react to separation, and manage conflict in relationships. It is useful for intimacy-related concerns, attachment issues, and family-of-origin wounds.

She also uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening deeply and following the person's pace and priorities. That approach helps people feel heard while deciding which changes matter most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another tool she draws on to identify unhelpful thoughts and try concrete behavior changes for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Bridget will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She uses the therapeutic relationship itself to test what helps and adjusts plans as needs evolve.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people see nonverbal cues and hold richer conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or shorter touchpoints between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
