Life is overwhelming for neurodiverse people (autism, ADHD, etc.) and there's no guidebook to being neurodiverse. I'm here to help process and navigate the experience of being neurodiverse. I help clients understand their unique story. I empower clients with relationship and social skills so that they can find fulfilling, healthy relationships. I am EMDR-trained to work on trauma and other painful experiences. I also provide help with job, school, and occupational situations. Most importantly, I help clients figure out what their values are and who they want to be.

You may be an adult who feels shaped by past relationships, childhood experiences, or complex trauma and are noticing how these patterns show up in your present life. You might struggle with relationships, identity questions, family of origin wounds, or major life transitions, especially while navigating marginalization or systemic pressures. You want to understand yourself more deeply, feel safer in your body and relationships, and live in a way that feels more authentic, connected, and aligned with who you truly are.

Mindy Morgan
Social Worker, CSW
Millcreek, UT 84117
I am Korean and was adopted at six months old into a multi-racial family.
You’ve done your best to cope, but your body still feels on edge, shut down, or easily overwhelmed. Past experiences, intrusive thoughts, and mental rumination continue to show up in ways you don’t always understand, especially in relationships, anxiety, or self-trust. Therapy can help your nervous system feel safer so real change can happen. I’m Mindy Morgan, a MSWi in Utah. I love people, and I truly care about my clients. I am told I am easy to talk to and connect with, and that I am genuinely compassionate. My style is warm, collaborative, empowering, and grounded in research-based treatment.

Life is difficult. It’s hard to engage in valued and meaningful actions when confronted with overwhelming emotions, unhelpful thoughts, and stressful relationships. As a neurodiverse (ADHD) and mixed ethnic person, I know the difficulties that come from navigating a world not built with your particular strengths/weaknesses in mind. I strive to help clients thrive in our imperfect and unfair world. As a published psychotherapy researcher, I use science-based tools to help clients regulate difficult emotions/thought processes, navigate difficult stressors/relationships, and explore their human experience in a culturally humble way.

Millcreek, UT 84117
I work with all women, and I'd especially love to work with South Asian women and women of color trying to untangle from the cultural pressures that keep us stuck.
Many of us are mid-life, feeling stuck, questioning our identities, moving through major life transitions, grieving loss, caretaking for elders, raising new humans, unraveling intergenerational trauma, or simply feeling the weight of the world. All too often, when faced with even one of these, let alone several at once, we push through in isolation. And it isn't until we slow down that we even notice. I offer this space for you to take a beat, exactly as you are, held by someone who will always meet you where you are. We can figure out the rest together.

FAQ - Asian Counseling
What can an Asian therapist help with?
An Asian therapist can help with the same concerns as any other therapist, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, stress, grief, and major life transitions. How an Asian therapist can make the experience feel different, however, is the possibility of shared cultural understanding. If you identify with a background such as Chinese, Korean, Indian, Vietnamese, Filipino, or Japanese, working with a therapist who shares or understands aspects of your culture may help you feel more comfortable opening up on such topics.

What role can language play in therapy?
Language can play an important role in therapy because people often express emotions, family dynamics, and personal experiences differently depending on the language they are speaking. For some individuals, working with a therapist who speaks their native language, whether it be Mandarin, Korean, Vietnamese, Japanese, or another language, may help sessions feel more natural and emotionally connected. Even if you are fluent in English, certain thoughts or feelings may still feel easier to communicate in your native language.

How can an Asian therapist support couples counseling or family therapy?
Cultural background can play an important role in couples counseling and family therapy, particularly when family expectations, communication styles, generational differences, or cultural traditions are influencing the relationship. An Asian therapist may help partners and family members navigate these topics with more cultural understanding and less need to explain the context behind them. For multicultural or multilingual families, a Asian therapist who is bilingual may also help ensure that each person feels heard and understood during sessions.

How might I inquire about a therapist’s experience with Asian clients?
If cultural background is important to you in therapy, it can be helpful to ask prospective therapists whether they have experience working with clients who share your cultural background or speak your preferred language. In initial conversations with potential therapists, you might also ask whether they have worked with clients experiencing concerns related to identity, intergenerational conflict, family expectations, or cultural stigma around mental health.

Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Asian therapists?
The directory of Asian therapists includes professionals who have shared their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason; also, when the number of therapists identified as Asian is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
