About
Kirk Murdock is a Florida-licensed LMHC with eight years of clinical practice. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and related concerns including grief, intimacy challenges, parenting issues, and workplace strain. His approach is shaped by the presenting needs of each person rather than a single method.
He draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered and mindfulness approaches, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques. These methods are applied to a broad range of issues such as compulsions, panic, mood disorders, veteran and first responder concerns, and compassion fatigue.
Murdock emphasizes respectful, sensitive engagement and collaborates with clients to design individualized goals and practical steps. He accepts international clients while practicing from Florida and tailors conversations and plans to match each client’s situation and preferences.

Online options and therapeutic approach
Kirk integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address both the thoughts and behaviors that maintain distress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports clarity about personal values and committed action, while Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers practical strategies to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and habits. He also uses mindfulness practices to build moment-to-moment awareness and reduce reactivity.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused work are included when the focus is on readiness for change and identifying immediate steps forward. Sessions are collaborative: the client and clinician set goals together, review progress, and adjust plans to fit what is most useful for the client.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the communication format that best fits their needs.
