Her professional background includes pain management, presurgical and neuropsychological evaluations, skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities, memory care, COVID units, and end-of-life and palliative care. She also received intensive training in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings, where she utilized evidence-based assessment and treatment to address a broad range of internalizing and externalizing disorders in children, adolescents, and adults. Throughout her career, she has helped individuals and families navigate chronic illness, disability, injury, neurodegenerative disorders, major medical diagnoses, and the emotional challenges that often accompany them.

Dr. Morris has clinical expertise in treating anxiety disorders and co-occurring conditions, including OCD, phobias, PANS/PANDAS, body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) such as hair pulling (trichotillomania) and skin picking (excoriation disorder), ADHD, tic disorders, mood disorders, ARFID, hoarding, and behavioral concerns across the lifespan. She is particularly known for her work at the intersection of mental health and complex medical conditions, helping individuals navigate the emotional, behavioral, and psychological challenges that often accompany chronic illness and medical complexity.

Dr. Morris utilizes evidence-based therapeutic modalities tailored to each client's unique needs, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT), Habit Reversal Training (HRT), the Comprehensive Behavioral Model (ComB), Parent Management Training (PMT), and executive functioning coaching.

As an athlete herself, Dr. Morris enjoys working with athletes navigating injuries, chronic medical conditions, performance anxiety, and the psychological challenges that can accompany setbacks in training and competition.

Through individual services, coaching, groups, accommodations, and educational courses, she helps clients develop practical strategies for success at school, work, athletics, and everyday life.

Known for her active, direct, and collaborative style, Dr. Morris approaches therapy more like coaching than traditional talk therapy. She blends evidence-based treatment with practical skill-building, humor, authenticity, and problem-solving to help clients move beyond ineffective patterns and create meaningful, lasting change. Her goal is not only to reduce symptoms, but to help clients improve functioning, strengthen relationships, increase resilience, and build lives worth living.

Dr. Morris earned her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Sociology from New York University, a Master of Arts in Psychology and Education from Columbia University, and both her Master of Science and Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine.
