Contact Morgan

As a coach, I work with people who are looking to improve the quality of their lives and relationships on a personal or professional level. I work with people from all ages and backgrounds struggling with stress, anxiety, communication, relationship strain, parenting, or productivity.

I have over a decade of experience working with neurodivergent individuals and parents of neurodivergent children. I am trauma-informed, gender-inclusive, gender-affirming, and queer-competent.

Who I work with

Fees & Location

55-minute virtual session $120

55-minute in-person session $150

I accept virtual clients from all over the US and offer in-person sessions at Triple Play Farm (8864 Wright Rd, Kannapolis, NC 28081).

 

I believe that the key to creating lasting change involves identifying unhelpful patterns, discovering what is holding those patterns in place, and then planning together how to shift the external and internal environment to create new patterns. Change is most effective when we not only talk about these things, but actually practice new patterns together in real-time, building confidence and familiarity while problem-solving any hiccups along the way. I am committed to understanding the unique situation that each client brings and finding the right set of strategies and insights to help them meet their goals.

I believe in a collaborative, experiential approach whenever possible. While virtual sessions can be effective for some individuals, many clients have found it helpful to work together in-person and incorporate animal and nature facilitated experiential learning into our sessions. Working with me often involves deepening self-awareness, fine-tuning social and emotional intelligence, developing effective mindfulness techniques, and (on my part) lots of notes and spreadsheets tracking goals and progress.

Working with me

My background is in psychology (MA in Clinical and Community Psychology) with a focus on adolescents and behavioral psychology.  I have worked in the field of leadership development, animal-assisted therapy, and learning for over a decade. A behaviorist at heart, I am especially interested in understanding the systems of motivation that create behavior, how those systems maintain themselves, and what we can do to shift them. 

I believe that the answers to our complex human challenges - personally, professionally, and within our broader communities - are difficult to find within isolated silos. I have found the best solutions through intentional reconnection to nature, other humans, and non-human animals.
