About Marnie
Marnie Morgan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 25 years of clinical experience. She brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to common struggles such as anxiety, stress, relationship problems, grief, and life changes. Her manner is warm and interactive, and she focuses on helping people take realistic steps toward change.
She has two master's degrees, one in Professional Counseling and one in Marriage and Family Therapy. That background shapes a systems view of problems so individual concerns are seen in the context of relationships and daily life.
Background and approach
She has also taught counseling at the graduate level and provided supervision to counselors pursuing licensure. Marnie uses a client-centered stance that adapts to each person's needs. She integrates approaches such as cognitive behavioral strategies, attachment-based ideas, and mindfulness to address symptoms and patterns that keep people stuck.
Sessions are tailored to the situation rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan. People often come to her with trouble sleeping, difficulties with intimacy, parenting stress, career strain, or struggles with substance use and compulsive behaviors. She also supports those facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, grief, and the long-term effects of trauma.
Her style balances empathy with practical tools. She works with clients to set achievable goals, develop coping skills, and improve communication. The focus is on clear steps you can use between sessions to build better routines and relationships.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions use conversation and reflective exercises to help people notice attachment needs and change how they relate in close relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and shifting behavior. In teletherapy, CBT often includes structured worksheets, activity planning, and short behavioral experiments you can try between sessions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together you will try methods that fit your situation and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let you work face-to-face when a visual connection helps. Phone sessions can be a good option for lower bandwidth or when being on camera is difficult. Live chat or text-based messaging can support brief check-ins, homework review, or timely coping strategies between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while still using evidence-informed approaches.
