Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I offer secure, confidential online therapy for individuals, couples, and families, making it easier to access support from the comfort and privacy of your own space. Virtual sessions allow for flexibility while maintaining the same level of care, thoughtfulness, and engagement as in-person work.
Online therapy can be especially helpful for those with busy schedules, travel constraints, or who simply feel more at ease meeting from home. I work to ensure that sessions remain focused, connected, and meaningful, even in a virtual setting.
For clients seeking family-building evaluations or time-sensitive services, online appointments also allow for quicker scheduling and efficient completion of the process without compromising quality.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’ve already done work and want to go deeper. I offer a supportive, down-to-earth space to sort through what feels stuck, overwhelming, or hard to name. My approach is rooted in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and trauma-informed care, but always tailored to what you need most.
I work with adults carrying the weight of childhood neglect or trauma, as well as those navigating stress in parenting, relationships, or work. Along the way, we focus on building clarity, connection, and trust so change feels possible—and lasting.
I also provide consultation and supervision for licensed therapists and offer parenting consultations. My practice is 100% telehealth, making therapy more flexible and accessible across Washington State and Psychpact states throughout the United States.

Carrie Marchant LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I have worked primarily with youth and their families for well over 20 years, helping them learn emotion control, effective communication skills, and conflict resolution, and how to deal with other problematic issues as a criminologist. Families oftentimes find themselves needing more help than ever when dealing with youth who are in their turbulent teenage years. My specialty has been with youth of all ages, but especially teens, and their families. My real goal as a therapist is to help bring peace and hope to families who have experienced trauma and feel hopeless.
My interest in becoming a therapist was peaked because I had a tremendously positive experience with teachers, counselors, and others in the people-helping industry who made a vast difference in my life as an adolescent. I also had an incredibly therapeutic experience that impacted who I am today. I understand it takes courage to open your wounds and share your trauma with a stranger. I am a therapist with whom you will feel safe and comfortable because I am empathetic, compassionate, warm, and nonjudgmental.

As an adolescent or young adult, you might spend most of your day in school with a variety of feelings to manage. If you have trouble in school, you might hate where you are most of your day.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Philadelphia Couples Therapy (PCT) is a doctoral-level couples group practice offering a treatment team approach to supporting couples of every persuasion. Couples work is not for the faint of heart; many times couples come into therapy on the verge of separation. The work is emergent and vital, often bringing each partner to a new space in life that feels transformative to them. The clinicians at PCT work together to provide couples, individual, and group treatment in order to bolster the couple system in the way it might need. Today, couples are expected to be everything to one another, all the while navigating children, mortgages, layoffs, or illnesses. Such pressure can unravel even the strongest of partnerships. PCT offers just the support couples need to get back on their feet and face the world again.
