Hi! I’m Morgan, a Professional Art Therapist and a Registered Psychotherapist. I believe that healing begins in connection, and that expression through the arts facilitates true healing and mental health. I aim to act not as an expert or person with all of the answers, but as a collaborative guide on your personal journey.
I have a special place in my heart for working alongside adolescents, youth, and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma. I support people in creating more compassion for themselves, connecting to their feelings and values, and empowering themselves along their healing journeys.
Aside from being a psychotherapist and art therapist, I’m…
▴ a partner and a cat mom
▴ an art maker, sewist, and gardener
▴ an advocate that art is for everyone, and that everyone is inherently creative
▴ libra ☼ gemini ☽ gemini ⌓
▴ a second generation Welsh immigrant, living on the traditional land of the Algonquin peoples
▴ a firm believer in connection as medicine, whether it be to self, other, nature, or intuition
▴ always looking at the world through a political lens
▴ seeking joy and comfort in small things
▴ queer/LGBT+ affirming
▴ disability and chronic illness affirming
Approach
I utilize warmth, collaboration, curiosity, and authenticity. I believe we do not heal in isolation, so I strive to build relationships based on care, commitment, knowledge, responsibility, trust, and respect.
I act not as an expert with all the answers, but as a safe, empathetic guide to remind you of your inherent worth and intuition, and to provide tools and resources to support and empower you.
I work mainly from an anti-oppressive and client-centered framework, and may include aspects of…
▴ attachment theory
▴ trauma-informed teachings
▴ feminist and relational-cultural approaches
▴ mindfulness and somatic techniques
▴ focusing oriented art therapy
I support folks working with…
▴ stress and anxiety
▴ depression and mood disorders
▴ trauma and PTSD
▴ relationship challenges
▴ inner critic, self-worth, and self-compassion
