About Jeffrey
When you’re tired or hurting and want to make some healthy changes, we need to talk. One of the comments I often hear from clients is “You make me think!” as they find new ways of dealing with their problems.
Hello, I’m Jeffrey. I’m a licensed therapist who’s spent 40+ years helping people through their toughest challenges. My work has been in a variety of settings including in-patient hospitals, halfway houses, homeless shelters, school counseling offices, college classrooms, church counseling, foster care homes and outpatient clinics. Those experiences give me a broad and deep perspective on the struggles people go through.
In my own life, having grown up in a blended family, I am personally familiar with all the drama that brings. I have been married for over 35 years to the same woman and have three wonderful sons, who were homeschooled. We have also provided care for a parent with dementia. These experiences give me insights and understanding into the challenges families and individuals face.
I make extensive use of psychodynamic techniques and cognitive behavioral therapy approaches. From grief, guilt, difficulty coping and relationship issues, to recovering from infidelity and addiction- if you’re looking for help with your struggles like these, I want to talk with you first!
I have always been passionate about helping people with the challenges they face in life. I want to see you succeed and improve your life. I’ve worked with clients across a wide range of concerns including low self-esteem, discouragement, relationship issues, codependency, recovering from infidelity and addiction but also career challenges or caregiving for elderly parents. There are times you may feel overwhelmed and unable to handle things on your terms – that’s when it can be helpful to learn new ways of handling them! Reach out today if any of these topics resonate for you; there is hope available here at my practice now more than ever before!
I am committed to providing compassionate care tailored specifically around each individual’s needs while working collaboratively as partners toward addressing their goals together. Whether it’s addiction, enabling, communication, relationship, or depression-related issues, working together will help you through them.
I aim to provide a safe, supportive place where you can be yourself and work on your goals. I listen carefully to clients, take the time needed to understand their situation, and develop thoughtful ways of helping them address what they need in their lives. I believe that everyone has untapped strengths that can help them recover from difficulties or achieve the goals of their life.
I am also a Certified Mental Health & Nutrition Clinical Specialist (CMNCS) and Farm Response Certified.

- “So far in my beginning journey Dr. Murrah has helped me feel comfortable in the session. Asking open ended questions and direct questions. I was very against therapy until pairing with him”
- “We have really enjoyed working with Jeffrey, he has helped us work out issues and connect more”
- “My life has greatly improved”
- “Jeffrey Murrah is the best therapist with whom I’ve had the pleasure of working, and it’s not even close. His wide range of expertise is unparalleled.”
- “Fantastic!”
- “Jeffrey is truly skilled and is very perceptive of our issues, even when it is difficult to find the words to describe them. Unlike so many therapists who only offer a sounding board to clarify the feelings and motivations behind the issues, Jeffrey has clear practical and objective advice which he writes out for our benefit at the conclusion of each session. He also includes relevant articles for further insight. His professionalism is nothing short of excellent.”
- “Jeffrey Murrah has been very helpful along my path of recovery from childhood trauma. I would highly recommend Jeffrey Murrah for anyone dealing with a narcissistic parent.”
- “Jeffrey Murrah has help me more in 3 sessions than my last couple of therapists have in a year and a half's time. I find it very beneficial that he periodically stops the conversation to address issues in real time, rather than waiting until the last few minutes of the session to provide generic feedback on everything I have said. The feedback is honest and meaningful. I love the "homework" and follow up advice that is provided.”
- “Excellent thus far.”
- “Jeff has helped us to begin to think seriously about our lives together and our hopes and dreams for our future.”
- “Hey Jeffrey, i appreciate our sessions and thank you again for being able to respond so fast when we needed it.”
- “Jeffrey is the real deal. He helped me so much by providing a safe space to explore my thoughts and patterns. My mental health has improved greatly. My relationships have improved. I recommend his wise counsel to anyone thinking about counseling.”
