About Morgan Kraut

“You have to first get on the lifeboat before reaching out to save your loved ones from drowning.” 

-Dr. Ferrante Frazier

​

I had a mentor once who told me, "You have to first get on the lifeboat before reaching out to save others from drowning.” I realized in that moment that I can use the unique challenges that I survived and overcame to help others, but I first had to help myself. My life experiences have led me to become a counselor, and now that I am on the “lifeboat,” I want to reach out and help others climb aboard.

​

I work with individual tweens, teens, young adults, and women. I utilize a combination of exposure response prevention, cognitive processing, narrative, cognitive behavioral, radically open dialectical behavior, and internal family systems (parts) therapies in my approach to counseling. I am aware of the uniqueness of all clients and work to adapt my approach to each individual client’s needs. My approach to counseling is always strength-based, and I respect individuals from all backgrounds.

​

I see clients for a variety of reasons including anxiety, depression, trauma, self-injury, applying healthy boundaries, co-dependency, life transitions, relationship issues, conflict resolution, and ambivalence to name some of them. I like to use the analogy that my clients are in the driver’s seat, and I am in the passenger seat with directions. I can help my clients navigate through their struggles and teach them valuable coping skills to apply in their lives, and my clients ultimately hold the power to change.

​

Whether you are treading water, on the lifeboat, or driving to your next destination, you don’t have to make the journey alone. Let’s make that journey together.
