Therapists in Seattle, WA
I primarily enjoy supporting LGBTQ+ clients as well as those experiencing/processing trauma. LGBTQ+ inclusivity to me includes kink, polyamory, sexuality, and all gender expansive identities. I integrate social justice and systemic barriers into therapy while addressing individual concerns. My inclusive framework embraces disability, neurodiversity, racial identity, and queer experiences, including kink, polyamory, and all gender-expansive identities. I follow a Health at Every Size (HAES) approach and prioritize harm reduction over abstinence.

My approach is holistic, client-centered, and trauma-informed. I strive to integrate the intersectionality of the individual, familial, cultural, and social factors to best understand my client's lived experience. I use a variety of modalities to best suit my client's needs, pulling from CBT, DBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based therapies. Therapy with me may look different than what you’ve seen on movies or television, or different from experience with previous therapists! I love to incorporate arts, crafts, toys, games, video games, music, and movement in sessions to help my clients understand their mental health.

Emotional pain distorts our view of the world. The longer our pain lasts, the more unhappy we become. Unlike a well meaning friend or relative, a therapist can consider your concerns from a fresh, objective, perspective. But a therapist will not solve your problems for you; he will guide you by listening, questioning and observing—- so that you can find your own answers when extreme unhappiness, overwhelming anxiety or fear, feelings of inadequacy and low self esteem, sexual problems, and traumatic events interfere with your life or relationships with others.

Being human is hard; many of us feel anxious, disconnected, confused, and overwhelmed. We carry personal and generational trauma, face pressure to fit in and keep up, and struggle in our relationships. We reach for distractions (shopping, food, alcohol, screens) even when we tell ourselves we won't. We struggle to find meaning and purpose. Therapy offers something different: a space to slow down, breathe, and turn toward what’s hard with compassion and curiosity. Together, we’ll explore the stories that live in your body and understand how your life has informed your thoughts, behaviors, feelings, and relationships.

I specialize in severe anxiety disorders, emotion dysregulation, and challenging relationship patterns. If you’ve felt stuck working things out on your own, or past therapy didn’t quite click, you’re in the right place. Maybe you’re tired of physical symptoms, feel overwhelmed by emotion, or struggle with self worth, people-pleasing, body image, or unhelpful urges and behaviors. I’m here to walk with you through whatever season you’re in: I’ll make space for all of you, especially the parts you’ve been pushing away, shaming, or judging. Together, we will uncover new pathways to empowerment, self-compassion, and joy.

Sometimes our old patterns and beliefs (arising from earlier unresolved experiences) prevent us from living our present-day life and relationships with the creativity, peace, and joy we desire. Perhaps we are missing one of our best resources, our capacity to listen and respond to our body's story (autonomic nervous system) with compassion and support. When we learn these updated listening skills, our whole being feels more seen, heard, and "welcomed home" by us! I look forward to supporting you in gaining clarity about what you truly desire, and exploring & renegotiating any internal roadblocks standing in the way.

I have worked extensively with adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, new medical diagnosis, chronic illness, chronic pain, disordered eating, body dysmorphia, difficult life transitions, grief, burnout, and overwhelm. I believe discovering our authentic self, landing safely back in our body, finding the deeper meanings underneath our current symptoms, releasing patterns that no longer serve us, and identifying our fears, hopes and desires can help us find a renewed sense of peace and purpose in our life. There is another way forward, and I'm here to help you find it.

Hello, I’m Shelly Morgan. I have both a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and a Master’s in Nursing. My practice focus is upon psychological evaluation and integrative psychotherapy. I work exclusively online with older school-age children, adolescents, adults, and seniors. Given my dual qualifications, I am especially sensitive to persons with a complicated or combined medical, neurological, and psychological history.

Life can feel overwhelming when you don’t fit into society’s expectations. It’s hard to navigate life when you’re juggling multiple parts of who you are, whether it’s related to your culture, sexuality, or neurodivergence. You might find yourself masking or trying to fit into societal expectations that don’t serve you, and leave you feeling like you cannot be your authentic self. You deserve more than just surviving day to day. It’s time to better understand yourself, embrace your uniqueness, and live in alignment with who you truly are.
