Wholeness Healing Center

Hello, I'm
Emily Morris

Intern Master of Marriage and Family Therapy

Emily Morris is excited to join the Wholeness Healing Center team as an intern! She is currently working on a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Concordia University-Nebraska. She also has a Bachelor of Science degree in Human Development and Family Studies from Colorado State University.

She lives in Grand Island and is looking forward to working from that office with couples, families, and individuals of all ages and backgrounds! She is passionate about providing people with a safe and supportive space to discuss or work through whatever they need. Whether someone wants to explore and resolve wounds from the past or figure out practical next steps to help with a present-day concern, she is happy to partner with people in whatever way they need. Her goal for each person is to get them to a healthier place that is characterized by strength and hope. She is still figuring out which therapeutic approaches most resonate with her, but she anticipates using a mixture of evidence-based practices, cognitive-behavioral therapy, family systems, psychodynamic theory, attachment-related therapies, and strengths-based positive psychology.

Though she is originally from Colorado and is refreshed by time in the mountains, Emily thoroughly loves Nebraska culture, people, and scenery. She and her husband have two wonderful teens who they enjoy watching grow and thrive. When she’s not working on schoolwork or attending to family needs, Emily loves good coffee, running, chips & queso, theology, quality conversation with friends, movie nights with the kids, and traveling or eating out as the budget allows.
