**Accepting clients starting mid-July**

Morgan Socorso is a licensed mental health counselor with Skylight's Kids & Teens team working with clients ages 4-17. For the past four years, Morgan's primary focus has been working with children and adolescents experiencing a range of difficulties. Her specialty areas consist of anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, low self-esteem, self-harm, and behavioral issues. Her passion to help children and teens has enabled her to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can be open and learn to develop tools and strategies to improve their overall well-being. Morgan engages her clients through cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, art therapy, and creative therapy, each tailored to meet the client's individual needs.

Along with being a licensed mental health counselor with a Masters in clinical mental health counseling from West Chester University, Morgan holds her professional certification in both motivational interviewing as well as certification in trauma and resilience. Morgan is trained in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy and the modular approach to therapy for children with anxiety, depression, trauma, or conduct challenges.  

Since 2021 Morgan has been able to use her experience and knowledge to build trusting relationships with clients, empowering them to identify and challenge negative thoughts, recognize and explore their feelings, learn healthy coping strategies, use tools to overcome challenges, and build confidence. Morgan supports the vital role caregivers have and collaborates with families to ensure the child's  mental health and well-being needs are met with the belief that working together creates a path toward healing and success. Morgan's goal and priority will always be the safety, health, and well-being of her clients. 

Outside of counseling, Morgan enjoys reading, spending time with family and friends, and enjoying the playful antics of her dog and cat.
