I am a Licensed Clinical Social Working in ND and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in MN, practicing on the border of ND/MN. I spent the first decade of my social work career in the child welfare world, as a child protection worker and case manager. The work I was a part of in the child welfare world has impacted my work as a clinical social worker. I work with children (5+) and adults from various walks of life experiencing mental health concerns for a variety of reasons, adoption and foster care included.

Navigating the world can be exhilarating and challenging. I am passionate about supporting adults and teens in thriving, not just surviving! Being able to identify and express feelings, communicate assertively, and problem-solve are essential lifeskills which I can help you strengthen. I’m here to listen, to care, and to support you as you embrace your strengths, engage meaningfully, and live your life authentically.

I have worked in the social service system for over 25 years with children and families prior to becoming a licensed clinical counselor. I am very familiar with the child protection and court system. I have attended trainings with the MN Pride Network for LGBTQ population. I have worked with adults and children on the autism spectrum. I spent 10 years working with children and birth, adoptive and foster families in the child protection system.

Hello and welcome! My name is Bridget Stevens-Murphy, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I earned my Master of Social Work degree with a specialization in clinical practice from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 2002. Over the years, I have worked both domestically and internationally in diverse settings dedicated to supporting children, families, and communities.

I enjoy working with all members of the adoption community. I use a cognitive behavior therapy approach to understanding the beliefs and emotions affecting the problem behaviors in the family. I also am an adoptee in reunion and enjoy working with adult adoptees interested in searching for their history.
