About Emma Morton
Hi! My name is Emma Morton (they/them). I specialize in trauma informed gender, sexuality, and neurodivergent affirming care. I focus on empowerment, self-determination, advocacy, and strengthening community support systems. I believe that the therapeutic process is different and unique to everyone. I utilize mood and nervous system regulation skills, identity exploration and affirmation, as well as DBT skills.
My goal is to facilitate safe, inclusive, compassionate, collaborative, therapeutic spaces and environments for the queer, gender diverse, and trans community.
I have worked for years supporting queer and trans individuals access resources. I am passionate about increasing access to affirming resources as well as ensuring basic needs are met in tandem with therapeutic care. In my free time, I love playing video games, going on walks, gardening, and cuddling with my cats.
