(she/her)
My name is Dorthina Morris, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist passionate about helping individuals navigate personal and relational challenges. I specialize in working with teenagers, couples, adults, and neurodivergent individuals, including ADHD and other cognitive and emotional processing differences. My approach is compassionate, affirming, and tailored to each client. I believe therapy should honor every person’s unique journey, strengths, and lived experiences.
During our first session, you can expect what I like to call an 'organic get-to-know time,' where we will discuss your medical history, mental health background, family dynamics, and the reasons that led you to seek treatment. This conversation will allow me to gather important information to create an effective treatment plan tailored to help you achieve your goals.
I believe my greatest strength as a therapist is my ability to meet clients exactly where they are in their journey. My adaptability, combined with a natural ability to create a safe and empathetic space, helps clients feel fully present and understood. Establishing these strong therapeutic connections enables me to support clients in making the necessary insights and connections that can lead to meaningful change.
I enjoy working with clients who are ready to make meaningful changes in their lives and are seeking the additional support and tools to do so. I find great fulfillment in helping my clients connect the dots and gain deeper insight into their personal growth and transformation.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
In my practice, I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) because it is an evidence-based, practical, and adaptable approach that empowers clients to take an active role in their healing process. I believe that real, lasting change begins with an understanding of how our thoughts influence our emotions and behaviors. CBT provides clients with tools to identify and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, paving the way for healthier emotional and behavioral responses.
