Episode notes

Dr. Brittne Murray is a licensed Professional Counselor trained in clinical psychology with over 20 years experience in the field. She received her PhD in Transpersonal Psychology at Sofia University (formerly The Institute of Transpersonal Psychology) in Palo Alto, California, and her postdoctoral education at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. She was also trained and received a fellowship degree at Tulane University in Early Infant Mental Heath. She began her therapeutic journey in Denver, Colorado, working in a residential facility and as a therapeutic case manager. She later moved to Lake Charles, Louisiana, where she held several roles such as Clinical Director of the Children’s Advocacy Center, EarlySteps interventionist, and clinical counselor treating children, teens, adults, and couples. Dr. Murray began her private practice in 2010, consistently working with divorced families, struggling with coparenting and stepparent integration in both Louisiana and Texas, while working with Tulane University, behaviorally assessing children in daycare settings. In 2018, she returned to Colorado and began a new practice, mainly focused on using EMDR to assist individuals in working through current and past traumas. However, she was always felt a call back to the families. In this desire, Dr. Murray created a new organization called Be Better Step-parenting, where she offers a 5-week online course for those attempting to navigate the step-parent waters. She hopes to educate and bring improved support to the marital couple, so that they can avoid the high statistical probability of divorce, and help the child(ren) avoid another break in their family system.

Dr. Brittne Murray's next blended family course begins February 2!
