About Chastity
Dr. Chastity Murray is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, grief, parenting pressures, anger, depression, and life transitions. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.
Her approach combines client-centered listening with practical, solution-focused work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and change patterns that fuel anger or anxiety. Sessions often look at concrete steps - small behavior changes, planning responses, and practicing new skills between meetings.
Dr. Murray aims to set clear goals with each person. She balances support with gentle challenge, asking questions that prompt reflection and action. This can be useful for someone who snaps at loved ones, struggles with workplace frustration, or carries long-standing resentment.
She also brings experience with trauma, substance use issues, attachment concerns, and multicultural or identity-related stresses. That background informs how she discusses safety, boundaries, and coping strategies without assuming one-size-fits-all answers.
Clients can expect a practical, goal-oriented pace that still centers their experience. Appointments are arranged through the platform workflow; sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To start, a short matching questionnaire helps connect a person with a first session time.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding a person's experience and building a collaborative relationship; online sessions let a therapist listen and reflect while you describe moments when anger shows up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and uses short exercises and homework to shift patterns that maintain anger and anxiety. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to specific goals and small, achievable steps to change what isn’t working now.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferred pace, and practical needs, then suggest which combination of methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, errands, or family time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or sessions that focus on practicing techniques between in-person commitments. Many people find remote sessions help them apply calming strategies in daily life without adding travel time.
