You are not alone. You are worthy and capable of living a fulfilling life. You are strong for seeking help.
Hi, I’m Grace Morgan, LPC-Associate, supervised by Tia Jennings, LPC-S. You’re probably wondering by now what makes me the right therapist for you. I believe that everyone has their own life story. I believe that as you write your story through your unique experiences, you develop certain patterns of thinking and behaving, whether these patterns
are positive or negative. I want to learn and work through these patterns with you by providing a safe and peaceful space for you to tell me your story. I want to talk through the issues you are facing with you. I want to work with you on finding ways to cope with these issues and ways to create a fulfilling life for yourself.
As someone who has struggled with my own mental health in the past, developed skills to cope with this struggle, and sought professional help myself, I want to support others in overcoming their own obstacles. This is why I became a therapist. My journey has empowered me to be my best self, and I want to empower you in the same way. I deeply value authenticity and transparency in the therapeutic relationship. I will show up as my true (but professional) self during our time together, and I ask my clients to do the same. I want to develop a genuine connection with you, in order to utilize our time together to the fullest. I understand that showing up as your genuine self when beginning therapy can be difficult, and I will never expect perfection. I’ll show up authentically for you, and I only ask that you make an effort to do the same.
I have worked with young adults, adolescents, and children on issues such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, adjustment issues, and self-esteem issues. I draw techniques from a few different approaches when working with clients, including Person- Centered Therapy, Brief Solution-Focused Therapy, and Narrative Therapy. I occasionally pull techniques from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, as well. Everyone is unique, and I use these different approaches in order to form a unique treatment plan that fits your needs and to meet you where you are in your life. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming. All are welcome here.
YOU are the author of your story. YOU are in control. YOU are capable of writing a story that you are proud of. I am here to guide you through this chapter of your story, but I firmly believe you are the expert of your life. I’m glad you are here, and I admire the strength I know it took for you to come here. I look forward to meeting you!
