Meet Your Therapist
Holly Morris, MA
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Hello, I’m Holly Morris, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and it is a joy to have you visit here.
Whatever is happening in your life now, you were not meant to go through it alone. I provide a warm, accepting space for you to be supported, grow and heal.
Some experiences in life evoke emotions that are surprising and linger longer than expected. They may impact the quality of relationships with yourself and others, productivity, enjoyment in life, faith, overall happiness. Most of my clients have sought therapy during times like these, when they have felt stuck in a way that feels new to them or has been reoccurring over a span of years. Connecting in a safe space and courageously sharing your story may be an important step in healing by feeling heard, understood and met right where you are.
I believe all individuals are created unique and valuable. My work with clients is collaborative and relational, an exploration to discover and accept their truest Self. For clients who are interested, I also integrate spirituality into their healing journey. Together we explore early life relational patterns and experiences that impact current dynamics.
My therapeutic approach is based in Attachment, Psychodynamic and Experiential Theories. We honor your story holistically in the collective narrative of thoughts, feelings and the body. Seeking understanding of all three aspects creates a fuller picture of struggle and resiliency to move toward wholeness. I am trained in Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and have been integrating it in work with clients for over a decade. I utilize this modality to treat symptoms of trauma from single incidents to complex/developmental/chronic. I am also trained in Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) which facilitates increased awareness and healing of the soma (body) from what it may be holding and expressing through flashbacks or chronic pain. Lastly, I am certified in Havening Techniques® which dovetails with EMDR and TRM to promote increased emotional regulation and processing of distressing memories.
I specialize in working with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, grief/loss, life-stage transitions, spiritual conflicts, symptoms of PTSD and Complex Trauma.
I work with teens, individual adults and families. We work in partnership to create an approach to move you toward healing and growth in vibrancy and wholeness.
