About me

I am a licensed clinical social worker licensed in the state of Washington. In my career, I have mostly worked in mental health and substance use/abuse treatment. I received a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Missouri, a Masters in Social Work from the University of Georgia, and Ph.D. from the University of Utah. Additionally, I have worked as a clinical supervisor for social workers and mental health counselors for 12+ years. I have recently studied trauma-informed therapy experiences.
I utilize cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, reality, structural family therapy, spiritually-centered and solution focused interventions. My training is in family systems and feminist theory in psychotherapy.
Our work will be collaborative, meaning you and I will work together to establish your goals and work toward achieving them. I believe in a person-in-the-environment perspective. We will explore your internal thoughts and feelings, and also the impact of your environment on your health and wellness.

This is the first therapist I've used so don't have a really good reference. But i appreciate how dr Moran is attentive , supportive and offers great guidance for what I'm going through. It's hard enough to deal with the difficult things in life, but with dr Moran i feel it's possible.

I could tell very quickly that Dr. Morgan cares and is interested in getting to know me. She is very supportive and listens to how you need/receive help and feedback. Very flexible with scheduling and responding to messages and journal entries. She also provides additional worksheets and activities if requested. I am really enjoying working with her!
