About me
Hello, I am a clinical social worker licensed in the state of Illinois. My passion has always been to help others. I have received training and supervision in the hospital, school, and community health setting. After working at a community health agency for a number of years, I felt that I would have more of an impact working in the school setting where I could consistently work with youth, staff, and families (a more ecological approach). I have supported clients in managing a variety of issues that affect quality of life such as, but not limited to, anxiety, ADHD, ASD, depression, trauma, homelessness, physical and sexual abuse, and addiction.
I have experience working with a wide demographic but I specialize in working with women coping with anxiety; and how anxiety impacts our relationships, work life, family, and our own self acceptance. As a therapist, my approach is to empower the individuals that I service through education, skill building, recognizing strengths, and collaborative goal setting. I want to offer a safe space to share your story, grow, and move towards better health. I look forward to hearing from you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Morgan Williams. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to help guide me through the loss of my partner. Morgan’s support was like a warm bath when you need it most.

We unfortunately had to stop our journey together but Morgan is amazing. She's a great listener, she gives wonderful advices/perspectives, she helped me organize my thoughts. I usually feel like my 'problems' aren't that bad but Morgan helped me see the validity behind my pain/trauma. Thank you Morgan!

Morgan is phenomenal! I have been working with her for a bit now and she is one of my favorite therapists to date. She is very good at listening to my concerns and allowing a collaborative process of addressing the problems I'm working through. She is also great at communication and being sure I am seen and heard. She is also very supportive in all the right ways. I highly recommend her if you're in need of a well rounded trauma informed therapist.
