Caitlin Murray, LCSW

Caitlin Murray approaches therapy with the belief that people are not inherently broken - rather, the patterns that develop over time can be changed. She works with a wide range of clients, including people managing addiction, college students, retirees, veterans, and those facing critical illness, to uncover thinking and behavior patterns that are limiting their ability to live more fulfilling lives. Her practice focuses on helping clients identify connections between past experiences, grief, trauma, family dynamics, and daily habits so they can choose different responses and rebuild self-worth.

She earned a master’s degree from Kennesaw State University and holds the LCSW credential. LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a licensed mental health professional trained to provide assessment and therapy. Early clinical experience in addiction care shaped her understanding of how depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma often underlie destructive coping strategies.

Caitlin tailors treatment to each person’s goals and preferences, offering structured exercises, reflective homework, and skills practice when helpful. Some clients work through written lists of memories and events, while others focus on processing emotions or changing behaviors. She frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to examine thinking and behavior, Narrative Therapy to reframe personal stories, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to build practical coping skills, all while practicing unconditional positive regard in the therapeutic relationship. She guides clients collaboratively, helping them discover new perspectives and reshape unhelpful patterns into more workable ways of living.
