About KyNisha
KyNisha Murphy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with four years of professional counseling experience. She draws on more than a decade working in the counseling arena to help adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, grief, trauma and anger. Her approach is straightforward and practical.
KyNisha sees clients as the experts on their own stories. She focuses on building practical skills while using what a person already knows and does well. Sessions will often involve talking through recent events, clarifying what matters most, and practicing small changes that can reduce tension and improve interactions with others.
She uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work focused on each person's priorities. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when patterns of thinking and behavior are getting in the way. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past events continue to affect emotions and relationships.
Typical topics KyNisha addresses include coping with life changes, career pressures, parenting strain, intimacy concerns, and anger that shows up at home or work. She also works with issues such as compassion fatigue, ADHD, body image, and forgiveness. The goal is clearer thinking, steadier reactions, and better communication.
Her sessions are practical and goal-oriented. Clients complete a short matching questionnaire to begin and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How her approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's goals and experiences. In practice this means the therapist listens for what matters most to the person and follows their priorities. This approach is useful for relationship issues, parenting stress, and problems with self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behavior. Sessions often include identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing concrete strategies to change reactions. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, anger, and coping with life changes.
Trauma-Focused Therapy targets reactions that persist after difficult events. Work may involve stabilizing strong emotions and gently processing memories when the client is ready. This approach can help with trauma, grief, and symptoms that affect daily relationships.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels manageable. Together they decide whether to focus on skills, thought patterns, or trauma processing.
