Anne Morgyn (she/they)

I've trained in and worked with teens and adults struggling with eating disorders along with competency training working with those who are LGBTQ+ or neurodivergent. I currently work with those that have a history of an eating disorder and are in the maintenance phase of their recovery or those with intrusive disordered eating. I also offer support for parents, family and partners of those with an eating disorder

I have lived experience with a variety of spiritual and religious environments as well as professional experience and training. I understand the very personal process of spiritual exploration and identity. I hold a wide space for accepting how this shows up for you (or doesn't) and how you may want to bring that into our work together. I am also cognizant in understanding the harm that can come from spiritual organizations and how to regain your sense of self outside of these experiences.

I work with caregiver burnout, sensory overwhelm, changing generational parenting patterns, addressing intrusive trauma that affects parenting, parenting children with an eating disorder or who is neurodivergent, and loss of sense of self as a new parent. In addition I also work with women navigating divorce and co parenting. Alongside the challenges, I help parents accept the messiness and reality of parenting while finding realistic self care and celebrating the many joys and rewards.

I have a background as a licensed massage therapist (LMT) with over a decade of experience. This has fine tuned my ability to be a grounded, regulated professional helping others to calm their own systems. I guide clients in learning skills for managing stress and anxiety as well as developing awareness of their own internal states through the body's cues. I have also taken a 9 month training on healing trauma using somatic therapy.

I've experienced many years of therapy using IFS/parts work models and I have a daily practice understanding myself and others as a collective of parts. I work with my clients to understand the vital role each part plays within them and how their internal systems can cultivate a connection to their expansive and compassionate Self. Using IFS, we can understand the internal, well intentioned reasons for outward behaviors that are often problematic and bring those parts into more alignment.

I am a certified Somatic EMDR practitioner. EMDR Therapy uses a structured protocol for the treatment of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and related past experiences that trigger distressing emotions, beliefs, or sensations. Somatic Interventions such as tracking sensations, deepening awareness, boundary awareness, and self-regulation can compliment and increase the efficacy of EMDR alone.
