David Houston Murphy
Psychologist, PhD, LP, PSYPACT
I have extensive experience working with clients who are autistic. I work with autistic clients through individual therapy, couples therapy, group therapy, and psychological evaluations. I help clients address adjusting to a neurodivergent diagnosis later in life, unmasking, as well as address autistic burnout, all from a neurodiversity-affirming lens. As an autistic psychologist, I can often share my own experiences and personally relate with my clients. With my PSYPACT license, I am able to provide online psychological evaluations for autism.

8 Years Experience

Fort Collins is home to Colorado State University and has a strong outdoor recreation culture anchored by the Rocky Mountain foothills, giving the city a relatively young, health-conscious population with a generally positive attitude toward therapy and mental health support. Demand for therapy is shaped by student needs at CSU, the stresses of a growing tech and craft brewing economy, and the challenges of a housing market that has grown significantly more expensive as the city's population has surged. Common therapy concerns include academic and career stress, relationship and life transition issues, anxiety, and the particular mental health challenges of a rapidly growing community where longtime residents and newcomers are still finding their footing. Fort Collins has a well-developed private therapy sector relative to its size, and CSU's counseling center serves the significant student population.
