Marnie Morgan

Marnie Morgan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri with 25 years of clinical experience. She brings long-term experience in trauma work and a background that includes supervising counselors and teaching graduate-level counseling courses. Her work is described in plain terms: she listens, helps people describe their concerns, and builds a plan that fits each person’s life.

She holds dual master’s degrees in Professional Counseling and in Marriage and Family Therapy. That education and her systemic training shape how she looks at problems - she pays attention to relationships and patterns that affect daily life. Sessions are built around the needs named by the person seeking help, not a one-size-fits-all script.

Her style is warm and interactive. She aims to create a setting where people can try new ways of handling stress, anger, or relationship problems. Practical tools and conversations are used alongside attention to how past experiences influence the present.

Marnie draws from several approaches including attachment-based ideas, client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, the Gottman Method for relational issues, and mindfulness practices. She adapts methods depending on the concern, such as grief, addiction, or coping with life changes.

If someone is dealing with anxiety, trauma, parenting strain, anger, or career stress, she helps break problems into manageable steps. The emphasis is on clear goals, steady progress, and supporting the person through difficult changes.

How core approaches guide online sessions

The attachment-based approach focuses on how relationships shape feelings and behavior. It looks at patterns in close connections and helps people develop different ways to relate when old patterns cause stress or anger.

Client-centered therapy centers the session on the person’s own goals and experience. The therapist listens and reflects, helping people find their own solutions and make decisions that fit their life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and replace them with practical alternatives. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing anger by teaching specific skills to change behavior.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then try methods that match those needs. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week by removing travel time and allowing meetings from different locations. Before booking, confirm which session formats she currently offers. Many people appreciate that online sessions can allow shorter check-ins, easier scheduling around work or caregiving, and the ability to use mindfulness and CBT exercises during real-life moments between sessions.
