Hi! My name is Charity Morton (she/her/hers). I work with adults (18+) who are navigating life transitions, grief, shame, guilt, or difficult experiences that have made it challenging to move forward. I also welcome clients who feel disconnected from themselves, are stuck in familiar patterns, or are unsure of what they want their lives to look like. Whether you have previous therapy experience or this is your first time, I strive to meet you where you are. 

You don’t have to have all the answers before starting therapy. I believe therapy is a place where you can show up as you are, without trying to be the perfect client or feeling like you need to wrap your struggles up neatly with a bow. This is a place where you can exhale and be yourself, and that is enough. Maybe therapy is a place where you begin to understand why you learned to make yourself smaller and slowly discover that you don’t need to make yourself smaller, but instead have more room to be you. 

I believe each client is unique, with different needs and experiences. As a strengths-based, relational therapist, I strive to be curious about you and the experiences that have shaped who you are today. As a Filipino American, I value understanding how culture, identity, and lived experiences shape how we understand ourselves. I value understanding how the patterns in your life make sense in the context of your experiences. Together, we can explore not only what you want to change, but also the parts of yourself that you have learned to hide and work toward meaningful, realistic goals that help you create a life that feels more authentic to you.
