Morgan Poons

Therapist

Hi! I have been in the therapy field for over 18 years, working with individuals and families in both outpatient, group, and residential settings. After a few unsatisfying careers and emotional stagnation in relationships, I recognized I needed to do some significant work on myself. I pursued therapy for myself which led me to appreciate the capacity and curiosity to want to help others.

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


Do you need Saturday hours? I am available most Saturday mornings to help you fit therapy into your busy life! I have 21 years of counseling experience with multiple populations.

All parts are welcome! Do you ever feel like you have different parts of yourself that are struggling with each other and preventing you from moving ahead? Deep down inside of us we have inherent wisdom it is only a matter of tapping into that wisdom as a resource for healing. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Pennsylvania and have been practicing since various clinical settings. My background includes training in addiction, EMDR, psychodrama, motivational interviewing, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I also integrate narrative therapy, art-based interventions, and Internal Family Systems in order to creatively integrate those parts of self that need attention and healing. True healing can accelerate in a relationship that is non-judgmental, accepting and warm and I seek to offer these aspects in my approach. You don’t have to carry the heavy burdens of your life alone- we can walk this road together!
