Therapy for Increasing your Confidence & Self-Esteem
Erica Murphy, LPC-S offers therapy in-person and online from New Orleans, LA
Let your mind fast forward 6 months into the future
Imagine you and I have been working together for several months. We’re listing out all the ways you’ve changed since beginning our work together. As you read the description below, you realize you are reading the description of your Future Self…
You’ve stopped sacrificing your wants and needs to make everyone else comfortable. You are honest yet kind when you communicate your truth to others, and people respect you for it.
You no longer experience crippling self-doubt, second-guessing, and indecisiveness. You feel confident in your judgment and know that no matter what you choose, you trust yourself to handle whatever comes next.
You no longer chase acceptance or affection by turning yourself into a chameleon and performing for others’ comfort. You seek true compatibility over surface-level infatuation; you know the people who are truly meant for you will love your full self without you having to change for them.
You’ve stopped trying to force who and what isn’t meant for you. You voluntarily walk away from people and things that aren’t in alignment with your values and your worth, trusting that what is meant for you will be even better than you could have imagined.
It’s time to reconnect with your intuition, inner wisdom, and Highest Self.
During our work together you’ll learn how to:
Identify the difference between fear-induced anxiety versus your perceptive intuition
Understand your nervous system education and how to use concrete body-based regulation tools in times of stress and overwhelm
Release the self-limiting beliefs that have been keeping you stuck in unhelpful recurring patterns in your life
Gain deeper understanding about the origins of your Inner Critic, and develop empathy for the ways in which they’ve been trying to keep you safe
Begin healing old emotional wounds so that you can continue expanding into the person you’re meant to become
Figure out what you truly want out of life - and how to boldly and unapologetically go after it
My style is not a cookie cooker “one size fits all” where we do the next chapter in a generalized workbook each time we meet. I tailor each and every appointment to the specific client’s needs based on their life history, personality template, level of experience with healing and introspection, and current mood and energy level.
I ensure my techniques are constantly evolving as I stay up to date on the most cutting-edge information from various healing fields (some examples include Transpersonal Psychology, Shadow Work theory, Parts work, brain-body and polyvagal education, nervous system regulation techniques, and energetic healing principles).
Most importantly, I prioritize staying attuned to you and your energy during our 1-1 time so that you are truly feeling seen, heard, and understood. I am ready to provide you with all the compassion, support, and validation - while also keeping it real, holding you accountable, and challenging you to step outside your comfort zone to discover what you’re capable of.
Client Testimonial
"My other therapy experiences have not produced nearly as much progress and growth. Erica's ability to draw attention to issues and allow me to develop my own conclusions and solutions has been extremely helpful. She has helped me eliminate negative patterns of behavior that I have struggled with for years and has given me the self-confidence I have always wished for.”
