Hi, I’m Morgan Zeleny, LCSW.

(she/her/hers)

Morgan seeks to offer culturally responsive, identity-affirming care that is grounded in mindfulness and compassion. She works with children, adolescents, and adults and specializes in trauma, anxiety, OCD, neurodivergence, life transitions, and gender-affirming care.

What made you decide to go into this specialty?

As a social worker by training, intersectionality is unbelievably important to my practice. Across my specialties, I see how mental health, self-concept, and life experiences interact; this dynamic is what drew me to the field and inspires me daily.  I foster a nonjudgemental therapeutic environment that allows individuals to be open and authentic. As a meditator myself, I am always happy to support individuals seeking to increase their self-compassion and mindfulness practices.
