Amber E Morse

Specializing in counseling children, teens, and young adults ages 5-17, I use play and talk therapy to help them work through the issues that are bothering them. Young children especially have difficulty communicating their feelings, and play therapy gives them an opportunity to process their emotions using the language with which they are familiar–play. Teens and young adults have the choice of whether or not to play, and sometimes prefer talk therapy. By working through challenges, children, teens, and young adults can learn emotional management, problem-solving skills, and coping skills. By providing children, teens, and young adults with a safe and supportive space, they can feel comfortable to grow and change. Play therapy allows for clients to discuss issues with me, but without the awkwardness of us staring at each other from across the room. Clients can feel free to explore their feelings in a non-confrontational way. As a former school counselor, I have worked extensively with parents, children, and teens. I am also well versed in Section 504s and IEPs and can help navigate those school supports. I have immediate openings available.
