About Marguerite

Dr. Marguerite Morgan is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 33 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on relationship strain, grief, depression, anxiety, stress, and anger. She also addresses parenting concerns, intimacy-related issues, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes.

Dr. Morgan blends several approaches to help people who are struggling. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing as primary tools. She also draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centered methods to address patterns in relationships and self-worth.

Her work often brings faith and spiritual values into conversations when clients want that included. She incorporates practical skills for stress management and elements of positive psychotherapy and recovery principles. Sessions typically focus on real-world steps people can try between meetings.

Many clients come for help with maternal mental health, maternal grief and loss, and the transition after widowhood. She has long experience supporting women facing depression, suicidal thoughts, self-harm concerns, and trauma-related distress. Her perspective reflects both professional and personal experience with loss.

Outside of clinical work she is a mother and grandmother and participates in church leadership. She enjoys sewing and cooking. Her academic background includes a Master of Social Work from Western Michigan University and a Doctor of Philosophy degree.

How her approaches translate to online work

Dr. Morgan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and helps people test small changes. It is useful for anger that shows up at work or home, depression, and anxiety. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what they want to change and build small, doable steps toward that goal. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in close relationships and how early connections affect current reactions. That perspective is useful when anger ties to trust, abandonment, or intimacy concerns. The therapist and client decide together which approach to prioritize based on needs and goals. Finding the right method is part of the work. Dr. Morgan collaborates with each person to try approaches and adjust them over time. That means practical goal-setting, brief experiments between sessions, and regular check-ins about progress. Confirm the available session formats before booking, since formats were not specified in the original biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Discuss practical scheduling and format preferences during the first meeting to match sessions to everyday life.
