As one who has experienced personal trauma and loss, I believe that those experiences don't define us. I believe that healing from those experiences is possible.
Hi, I'm Morgan Jackson, a licensed professional counselor who believes therapy should feel like a collaborative, supportive space where you can show up exactly as you are. I earned my master's degree in professional counseling from Grand Canyon University in 2020, and since then I've had the privilege of helping individuals navigate life's challenges, transitions, and personal growth. My approach is flexible and client-centered because there's no one-size-fits-all path to healing. Together, we'll find what works best for you, your goals, and your unique circumstances. Outside the therapy office, I'm a mom to two teenage sons and four very spoiled French Bulldogs who keep life interesting. I'm also a fan of all things pink and glitter.
One of the beliefs that guides both my personal life and professional work is that "everything is figureoutable." That doesn't mean life is easy or that challenges disappear overnight. It means that even when things feel overwhelming, confusing, or stuck, there is always a path forward. Sometimes we just need support, perspective, and the right tools to help us find it.
Whether you're working through anxiety, relationship concerns, life transitions, stress, or simply trying to better understand yourself, I'd be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

At Thriveworks, Trauma/PTSD therapy involves dedicated efforts to address and navigate through past and/or recent traumatic events. Therapists specializing in trauma create a secure environment to process and heal from these experiences, aiming to reduce trauma-related symptoms and enhance overall quality of life.
Our Thriveworks providers use Trauma/PTSD therapy treatments like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing EMDR, CBT, and exposure therapy with the goal of helping clients process the traumatic events they have experienced so that they can to start feeling safe and secure again.
The symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can vary but often include:
The best way to overcome PTSD triggers is to seek the assistance of a professional therapist, such as those at Thriveworks, who can help you to understand and treat your PTSD triggers.
In most cases, a therapist who specializes in Trauma/PTSD therapy is the best type of mental health professional to address the symptoms of PTSD.
PTSD/trauma therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
If a client is working through a single traumatic event that occurred as an adult, trauma or PTSD therapy may only take a few months, but in general, it can take a year or more to effectively treat trauma symptoms and PTSD. The duration of treatment is highly dependent on the client and the severity of their symptoms.
The success rate of therapy for PTSD depends entirely on the individual’s symptoms, commitment to attending sessions, and personal abilities.
