Meet Ein - a very sweet but sassy corgi. She loves belly rubs and is my unofficial assistant, who occasionally pops in and out of telehealth sessions. She’s terrible at paperwork, though.
Hi, I’m Morgan
A well-lived life is like a well-drafted garment: It should offer both structure and ease.
I work with high-achievers and medical providers who are tired of "talking circles" around their problems. You’ve mastered the performance of being fine, and you’ve likely dazzled past therapists with your insight—but knowing why you’re stuck hasn't made you any less frozen.
I’m not here for the performance of progress. I’m here for the person beneath the expertise.
I help professionals navigating complex lives re-inhabit their lives with ease and structural integrity, but need specialized depth therapy to get there.
You remember a time when your professional success felt fulfilling. When being “fine” didn’t feel like a performance, and you didn’t feel alone in a crowded room, nor find yourself watching your life from the ceiling.
Now those days feel like a foggy memory. What if you could have the clarity and presence of mind to change that?
You might feel at home here in therapy with me if those issues sound familiar.
I help my clients find internal alignment, emotional flexibility, and a sense of genuine belonging by facilitating the depth work they need to move beyond a cycle of endurance and a life that actually fits.
Many solutions for high-functioning stress and anxiety are ineffective surface-level solutions, leaving people feeling unseen, struck, and frustrated with lack of progress or relief from painful symptoms that feel always just beyond reach. Others find that applying these quick fixes result in a “whack-a-mole” situation—where another issue seems to pop up right after one is resolved by a surface-level fix.
First, we work together to slow the momentum of the “fix-it” mindset. We look beneath the noise to examine the underlying weave and core patterns that are causing you to feel stuck or overextended. Then we work on re-patterning the map. Using a blend of EMDR, AEDP, and experiential sandtray, we ensure the internal work matches the external life. Through our work together, you will be equipped with the structural tools and self-presence you need to inhabit your life with more intention and less noise.
Clients often describe therapy with me as…
Warmth with quick wit: We don’t do heavy lifting in the dark. Humor is often the air in the room that makes the deep work sustainable.
Steadiness in the deep: I am often described as a calm, analytical presence—someone who can “go there” and hold the complexity without getting lost.
Direct & Collaborative: I am an active presence in the room. I reflect on things you share, openly, so we can discuss it. I acknowledge what might otherwise go unacknowledged.
Playfully Precise: Whether using a metaphor or sandtray, clients find that this “creative play” often leads to the most profound moments of clarity and flexibility with control.
You don’t have to settle for a life of “endurance”—wearing a version of yourself that is ill-fitting and restrictive, heavy, or hollow.
That’s why I’ve dedicated my practice to high-resolution, depth-oriented therapy with high-stakes professionals and complex individuals who are ready to move beyond “making it work” and into making it true.
Since starting my private practice, I have focused on the quiet, intentional work of re-patterning. I am professionally trained in EMDR, AEDP, and Sandtray therapy, and I intentionally curate a limited caseload. This isn’t a business decision; it’s a clinical necessity. It ensures I can show up with the analytical depth and steady presence you deserve—ensuring that the internal architecture of your world matches the life you lead.
A Note on Who I Work With And How I Show Up
I've spent over a decade working with LGBT+ clients — and most of that time with Trans and gender non-conforming individuals. I didn't arrive here by accident, and I don't show up to this work lightly.
I know that finding a therapist you can trust with the fullness of your experience — not just the parts that are easy to explain — is its own exhausting labor. I know our experiences are not the same. I'm not going to ask you to walk me through yours from the beginning, nor pretend that proximity to a community is the same as living inside it.
What I can tell you is this: I love this work. I love the complexity, the resilience, the places where identity and trauma and relationship all fold into each other. I've sat with a lot of it, and I don't look away.
That same genuine investment extends to clients who have navigated the world in ways that differ from my own — in race, culture, background, or lived experience. You deserve a therapist who is curious about your full life, not just the presenting problem.
You've spent enough time making yourself fit. Here, you don't have to.
Human to Human
“The most effective therapy happens when the connection is authentic. ”
When I’m not in the therapy office, I’m usually tending to my own creative pursuits. I’m an avid seamstress and garment designer, often found lost in the technical precision of pattern drafting and sewing or the tactical work of art journaling. I also find balance playing video games, reading and writing.
I live in Butte County with my partner and our corgi, Ein—who serves as a daily reminder that even the most serious work requires a bit of play and a lot of presence.
You’ve spent enough time watching your life from the ceiling, performing a version of "fine" that no longer fits. It is time to move beyond the cycle of endurance and into a life that is actually yours to inhabit.
