About Marnie
Marnie Morgan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri. She brings 25 years of clinical experience and a long history of working with trauma, relationships, and everyday life struggles. Her background includes graduate teaching and supervising counselors pursuing licensure.
Marnie draws on a client-centered stance that keeps each person’s needs central. She also uses family systems ideas to see how relationships and roles shape problems. Treatment plans are tailored to the situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
Background and approach
Her work often blends mind-body awareness with skills-based approaches. That means sessions can include attention to bodily responses as well as practical strategies for coping. She combines this with cognitive tools to help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Marnie’s manner is warm and interactive. She aims to create a calm setting where people can talk honestly and try new ways of handling stress. The process focuses on doable steps and real-world change.
She has helped people with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction concerns, sleep trouble, parenting stress, career questions, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and chronic illness stress. Sessions are adapted to each person’s goals and pace. For someone feeling stuck after loss, trauma, or life changes, she offers steady, experienced guidance.
The first steps are simple: share what’s hard, set short-term goals, and build from there.
How somatic and relational approaches work online
Somatic Therapy pays attention to bodily signals like tension, breath, and posture to help people become more aware of how stress shows up in the body. This can help with trauma reactions, anxiety, chronic pain, and sleep difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect feelings and behavior and can be useful for relationship and intimacy concerns and communication problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and comfort level. That means trying strategies together, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as progress and preferences become clear.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. These options allow for flexible scheduling and continued support between sessions. Remote sessions can still include somatic awareness and relational conversation, with practical exercises and skill-building adapted to a virtual setting.
