Emily Morris
Therapist Intern
Hi, I’m Emily a future clinical social worker with hands-on experience supporting children, teens, and families through life’s most challenging moments. I’ve worked with families in community-based settings like Head Start, where I focused on early childhood development and family well-being. My background in sociology and psychology, combined with real-world experience and deep empathy, shapes the way I show up for my clients: grounded, compassionate, and fully present.
My passion for this work is personal. Growing up in a divorced family and navigating my own experiences with trauma and counseling gave me an early understanding of how much it matters to feel seen, heard, and supported. These experiences help me connect with clients on a real level — because I’ve been there too.
I’m especially drawn to working with children, adolescents, and parents who are dealing with stress, trauma, family transitions, or just feeling overwhelmed. I create a warm, welcoming space where clients can be themselves, build coping skills, and gain the confidence to grow into who they’re meant to be. My approach is strengths-based, client-centered, and collaborative — we work together to figure out what you need most.
I use evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and family-focused strategies, but at the core of everything I do is the relationship. I believe therapy should feel safe, supportive, and empowering — not clinical or cold.
If you or your child is facing a tough season, I’d be honored to support you. Let’s take the next step together.
