Elaine Morgan, founder of Morgan Guidance, provides Educational Planning, Therapeutic Placement Consulting, Career Counseling and compassionate Parent Support.
She assists parents so their child stays on track to reach potential in school and in life. Do you have a student or young adult facing barriers to success? I bring a fresh perspective to challenging situations. As a Therapeutic Educational Consultant and Parent Mentor, I serve families as a calm, compassionate and experienced voice. I acknowledge your very real parenting pain, your vulnerability,
and your need for answers, clarity and hope during difficult days. I welcome the ethnic, cultural, sexual, religious/spiritual diversity of the people I work with. I am committed to providing a safe relationship as we work together to create a clear path forward for your son or daughter. My work is informed not only through my extensive training and professional experience but also through the wisdom of my own life experience. I believe I’m able to offer better service to families and individuals I work with because I know what it feels like to be a parent in need of help and support. My client families report: many fears, isolation and disrupted relationships, being consumed with turmoil and issues, and a sad sense of parenting failure. When working with me parents will: find a sense of peace with renewed hope for the future, build satisfying connections with others, gain a new perspective of their situation, and experience feelings of success as a parent. Every day I assist families with common concerns including but not limited to: young adult vocation, failure to launch, bullying, learning disabilities, social development, emotional or behavioral health, mental health issues, Asperger, Autism, "won't take no for an answer," substance abuse or addiction, gaming issues, social media issues, PANDAS, su***de, cutting, aggression in the home, and much more. I'm here on the journey with you. I welcome parents to form a collaborative partnership where we create a plan with actionable steps to meet the needs of your unique situation.
