Meet Morgan
Hi there, I'm Morgan Lemp and I'm glad you're here. I specialize in working with older adults who struggle with the aging process, retirement concerns, caregiver fatigue, health concerns and chronic pain. I'm also experienced in supporting adults of any age struggling with grief and loss.
My approach integrates mind-body connection, mindfulness, psychoeducation and thought pattern exploration. I strive to create a comfortable and collaborative space for growth.
When we work together, we'll be a team. The real success comes from our connection and ability to work together. I’ve learned in my time with clients that humor and authenticity are important parts of the healing process. Indeed, there is nothing better for the spirit than a good laugh! I'll always want to hear how you feel about our progress. Genuine growth in the therapeutic process comes from honest communication.
My Approach
I’ve had the opportunity to work with people from many different backgrounds both before and after becoming a social worker. People’s stories, joys and predicaments have been a draw for me since I was a little girl. I found my way to social work and ultimately therapy a bit later in life.
During my master's program there was a shift, even an alignment, in how I felt about myself. I was finally on the right track. Around the time I finished school, difficult personal events helped me find my career path. My grandparents were aging, moving towards end of life. I gained a new understanding of their struggles as well as the impact it had on their kids, my mom and aunts and uncles.
It would have been tough moving through big transitions in my life if it weren’t for a few great supports. My goal is to give you the sense that you are supported and not alone.
Services
I offer appointments to residents in the state of Colorado, in-person and by telehealth.
My private pay hourly rate is $125.00.
I accept many insurances including Medicare and Medicare Advantage Plans. I also accept many private insurances.
I offer open-minded and nonjudgmental therapy to adults and older adults. During our sessions I draw on the following approaches: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness.
I am not trained in, and therefore do not offer therapy for the following: psychosis, PTSD, personality disorders, eating disorders.
