About Chalon Murphy (She/Her)
Chalon Murphy helps individuals, couples, and families across California navigate emotional challenges and strengthen their ability to cope with life’s transitions. She provides a supportive, compassionate, and empowering space for teens and adults to explore their emotions, build resilience, and develop strategies that promote long-term emotional wellness. Whether helping clients manage anxiety, depression, or relationship issues, Chalon focuses on restoring balance and helping each person reconnect with their sense of purpose and inner strength. Chalon specializes in trauma-informed care and works extensively with clients navigating the effects of PTSD, grief, and loss. She is passionate about helping individuals who have experienced trauma reclaim safety, rebuild trust, and cultivate a sense of peace in their daily lives. Her warm and empathetic approach encourages healing through understanding and self-compassion, while her use of structured therapeutic tools helps clients make sustainable progress toward their goals. Drawing from evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Chalon integrates techniques that promote emotional regulation, mindfulness, and self-awareness. She also provides faith-based counseling for those who wish to incorporate spirituality into their healing process. Her work includes helping couples enhance communication and intimacy, supporting individuals managing ADHD or bipolar disorder, and guiding clients through midlife and later life transitions. Outside of her practice, Chalon enjoys spending time with her family and friends, traveling, listening to jazz, and reading or writing. These passions reflect her belief in the importance of creativity, connection, and balance in living a fulfilling life.
