About Morgan

Morgan Ikeorha is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Tennessee with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, and a range of other concerns. Morgan also supports people dealing with career challenges, ADHD, body image, caregiving stress, and issues related to aging and serious illness.

Her sessions are interactive and practical. She uses clear, goal-oriented conversations to help people notice patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. When trauma is part of the picture, she may include targeted trauma work to reduce intense reactions and distress.

Morgan draws on Client-Centered methods to keep the conversation focused on each person’s priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and actions that contribute to anger or anxiety. Elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy help with emotion regulation and managing intense feelings.

She can use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, known as EMDR, when trauma processing is needed and appropriate for the person. Motivational Interviewing techniques appear in sessions when someone is weighing change options or trying to build new habits.

Morgan explains clinical options and helps people choose what makes sense for them. Her background includes work in hospice and end-of-life care, which shaped her approach to grief, caregiver stress, and serious illness concerns. She works in English and accepts international clients.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Morgan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that fuel anger and anxiety. It often involves practical exercises and homework to try between sessions. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that help reduce intense reactions and improve communication.

She also uses Client-Centered methods to keep the work centered on what the client wants to address. That means she will listen to your goals and preferences and collaborate on which techniques to try first. Deciding which approach fits best is a shared process based on your needs, pace, and comfort level.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into busy days and reducing commute time so sessions are easier to attend. Online work can support shorter check-ins on a tough day or focused skill practice between in-person appointments. Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know what options are offered and can pick what fits your schedule and routines.
