Angela Murphy

Angela Murphy is a licensed counselor (LPC) in Idaho and Arizona with six years of therapy experience. Her credentials are listed as ID LPC LPC-7543 and AZ LPC 22833. Her stated goal is to listen, come alongside clients, and empower women.

She is trained as a certified clinical trauma professional and previously worked with diverse children who experienced trauma. For more than two years she has concentrated her clinical work on supporting women, and she also has knowledge of religious trauma.

Angela studied qualitative research as part of a doctoral certificate program. Her personal roles as a woman, daughter, wife, and mother inspired research into women and gender roles.

Alongside her specialization with women, Angela pays attention to the complex roots of coping patterns that have become dysfunctional. She sees how coping responses often emerge from cultural and family messages as well as from trauma and abuse, and she supports clients in developing new coping skills grounded in self-compassion.

Angela continues to pursue professional growth and uses a person-centered, eclectic approach tailored to each individual. She aims to help clients strengthen relational skills, including how to relate to their own inner self.
