Welcome to Hole Hearted Healing

You Don’t Have to Feel Whole to Begin Healing

Person-Centered, Trauma-Informed Counseling

Begin your healing journey

This practice grew from years of experience in private practice, community programs, and correctional and educational settings, in addition to a deep commitment to meeting each person where they are. Here, healing is a collaborative journey, and you are never expected to walk it alone.

At Hole Hearted Healing, we honor your lived experience, your pace, and your capacity. You don’t have to have it all together, you just have to show up.

Where healing is gentle, grounded, and guided by your pace, not pressure.

Welcome to Hole Hearted Healing, a trauma-informed counseling practice built on compassion, curiosity, and the belief that everyone deserves a safe place to heal.

Hole Hearted Healing was created with one belief at its core: you don’t have to feel “whole” to begin healing. Here, we believe that people can heal even with holes left by trauma, loss, or pain. We don’t wait for perfection, we create space for raw, real, wholehearted growth.

About the Therapist

Ansley Murphy, M.Ed., LPC-Associate Supervised by Christine Etheridge, M.S., LPC-S

I’m a trauma-informed counselor who blends person-centered care with mindfulness, somatic grounding, nervous system regulation, and gentle parts work. My approach is warm, steady, and deeply compassionate. I have experience in private practice, school-based counseling, and community and correctional settings. This work has shaped my belief that healing starts with safety, connection, and being truly seen.

I offer support with:

  • Trauma (including complex, developmental, sexual and/or relational trauma)

  • Anxiety + nervous system overwhelm and dysregulation

  • ADHD and executive functioning challenges

  • Depression and emotional heaviness

  • Grief, shame, and life transitions

  • Feeling disconnected from yourself or your body
