Morgan Kirwan, Intern
Hi there, I'm Morgan (she/her)!
I am currently completing my Master of Family Therapy at Mercer University and am so excited to be providing therapy as a clinical intern under the supervision of Leslie Schwartz and Leigh Ellen Magness. I am especially passionate about working with children, adolescents, young adults, and families as they navigate life's challenges, discover their strengths and build meaningful relationships.
I believe therapy is a process through which people should feel safe, supported, and accepted. My goal is to create a warm, collaborative environment where clients feel comfortable while we work together to better understand their experiences, build resilience and create meaningful change.
My passion for working with children started when I was 13 years old. Over the years, I’ve worked as a camp counselor, tutor, babysitter, and eventually a lead Pre-K teacher. As a teacher at an integrative school, I had the opportunity to work with children with autism, ADHD, sensory difficulties, and other special and unique needs. While I loved being in the classroom, I always knew that my real calling in life was to support children beyond academics and focus more on their emotional well-being and development. I’ve always been a big proponent for early intervention!
When I’m not in the therapy room, you can more often than not find me reading, watching movies, rock climbing, trying out new creative hobbies, or spending fun quality time with my family and friends.
I look forward to meeting you and getting to know you!
