Hi. I’m Andrea Walker Morris
Therapy rooted in relationship, experience, and respect
I work with people who have gained insight but still feel stuck in the same patterns. Using Brainspotting, IFS-informed parts work, and somatic approaches, we'll work beyond insight to create meaningful change.
“I’ve done the therapy thing. Why am I still stuck?”
You’re intelligent, you understand intellectually what is happening but continue to feel it or play it out in your body/patterns. Insight isn’t enough - in fact, cognitive-based therapies can keep us stuck and even add to the shame we feel. Somatic and experiential approaches allow us to access the subcortex and other brain structures, which is where effective processing happens.
You don't have to be “good at therapy” for therapy to work. You may need a different approach, or a more attuned provider. I work especially well with adults who are looking to go beyond typical talk therapy; particularly those who have felt unsuccessful or stuck in therapy in the past.
I believe that lived experience is vital in a provider - as long as that provider is actively doing their own healing work. It may feel important for you to know that I am:
a parent
a partner
a person in long-term recovery and an Adult Child of Alcoholism/Dysfunction
LBGTQ+ and an ally
a person with a physical difference/disability
a combat veteran spouse
neurodivergent
actively growing through my own complex and event trauma
Since 2015, I’ve helped clients access their strengths, regulate stress, and build resilience through life’s challenges.
My Approach
I draw from both my professional training and lived experience - and my (sometimes dark) sense of humor. My own experiences have deeply shaped my understanding of resilience, identity, and what it means to live in a world that isn’t always built for difference. Because of this, I am especially attuned to the experiences of those who are—or who feel—outside the norm, including individuals with disabilities and those who have spent a lifetime adapting, masking, or pushing through.
My commitment to this work also runs deep in my family lineage, and advocacy, inclusion, and respect for difference have always been part of my world. Supporting people in reclaiming their voice, worth, and agency feels not only like a calling, but a birthright.
I work with adults—many of them professionals—who appear capable on the outside but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or just “different”. My clients often carry the long-term effects of trauma, attachment wounds (including the mother/father wound), anxiety, or the quiet exhaustion that comes from navigating life transitions while holding it all together. Many are seeking a deeper sense of belonging, safety, and authenticity—within themselves and in their relationships.
My therapeutic approach is relational, trauma-responsive, and grounded in nervous system awareness. I believe healing happens through safety, attunement, and felt experience—not just insight. I offer traditional psychotherapy alongside Equine-assisted Psychotherapy, Brainspotting intensives, and wellness retreats, allowing us to work both cognitively and somatically. Whether in the therapy room or alongside horses in nature, my role is to walk with you as you reconnect with your innate strength, clarity, and capacity for meaningful change.
What Our Work Together May Include
Our sessions focus on building awareness, regulation, and capacity — not just understanding what’s happening, but learning how to respond differently over time.
I often incorporate:
Brainspotting
For processing trauma, emotional experiences, and patterns that don't seem to shift through talking alone.
IFS-informed parts work
For understanding the different parts of you that developed to protect you—and creating more choice in how you respond.
Somatic therapy
For working with what's happening in your body and nervous system, not just what you can explain intellectually.
I also draw from my lived experience with recovery and family systems, and I approach our work together with humility. I never ask clients to do anything I’m not willing to do myself. I continue to expand my training and knowledge so I can offer care that is thoughtful, ethical, and current.
A Collaborative Relationship
I specialize in helping clients discover and harness their strengths, navigate daily challenges, and move through trauma and grief with greater steadiness. Therapy is not about fixing what’s “wrong,” but about creating space for growth, self-trust, and forward movement — at a pace that feels respectful and supportive.
