About Jeffrey

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 41 years of experience, Jeffrey Murrah focuses on addictions, relationship and family concerns, mood disorders, trauma, and common life stressors. He uses psychodynamic approaches and cognitive behavioral techniques along with client-centered and solution-focused work to help people make practical changes.

Jeffrey draws on a wide variety of previous settings, including in-patient hospitals, halfway houses, homeless shelters, school counseling, college classrooms, church counseling, foster care homes and outpatient clinics. Those roles shaped how he listens and how he helps people recognize patterns that keep problems repeating.

He also brings personal experience with blended family life, long-term marriage, parenting, homeschooling, and caregiving for an aging parent. He references these life experiences when relevant to discussions about family stress, communication breakdowns, and caregiver strain.

Sessions often include looking at past relationships and patterns, then trying concrete behavior changes and thought work to reduce symptoms. Topics he commonly addresses include addiction and recovery, infidelity, communication problems, grief, sleep difficulties, anger, ADHD, bipolar and depression, and career or caregiving stress.

Jeffrey aims to help people think differently about problems and practice new responses. He asks questions that prompt new perspectives and offers practical steps clients can try between sessions. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How his approaches translate to online work

Psychodynamic work looks at recurring patterns and past relationships to understand current problems. Online sessions can be used to discuss these patterns, identify triggers, and develop new ways of relating to others.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with concrete exercises. In remote sessions clients can learn practical skills, try behavioral experiments, and bring observations from daily life back into the work.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and concerns, and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so sessions fit into busy routines. Many people find remote sessions let them apply strategies directly in their daily environment while still getting structured guidance from a licensed professional.
