Getting Started

There are only five steps to getting started …


  • Verify your insurance plan’s mental health outpatient therapy benefits and in-network, out-of-network benefits, if there’s a deductible and copay at time of service.
  • Email kellymurraylpc@gmail.com or call me for an intake appointment. If you are seeking to use insurance, in your email include Insurance Plan Information so I can verify your benefits. Include: Name of Plan, Subscriber Name, Subscriber Date of Birth, ID, Group ID and Provider Services Phone # (located on back of your insurance card).
  • My session/schedule availability under my “Contact” page. It can change at times due to parenting/school schedules. Depending on your availability and your desires for therapy, we may be a good match.
  • Complete electronic paperwork via Simple Practice. A form of payment is required to be on file.
  • Come to the first appt and there will be an assessment of Client/Therapist Fit. The relationship between client and therapist is the biggest determinant. This can be decided within the first or first couple sessions.
