I completed my Bachelor’s degree in psychology with a minor in sociology from UNCFSU/Fayetteville State University. I have experience with inpatient group counseling, supportive counseling through Wake Forest Baptist’s Burn and Trauma units, and in outpatient therapy.

Morganne Foley MSW, LCSW, LCAS
​
I graduated with a Bachelors of Social Work from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, and completed a Masters of Social Work at Appalachian State University. I work with clients primarily from a person-centered approach, emphasizing the individual’s goals and desires to drive treatment approaches. I utilize modalities centered within brain-body communication and integration with emphasis on building upon strengths and working towards healing. I utilize integrative techniques with various modalities, including Brainspotting, MBSR, CBT, DBT, ACT, relapse prevention, and seeking safety. My primary areas of practice include working with adults and teens, with most of my history of work involving the criminal justice system, substance use, trauma, anxiety disorders, perinatal experiences, and personality disorders. I have been able to work within various treatment settings, including inpatient and hospital treatment, crisis teams, intensive outpatient teams, and standard outpatient treatment. I feel incredibly privileged to be a part of a person’s personal work and healing, and I look forward to working together with you through the process.

Counseling from Gardner-Webb University in August of 2000. I am a member of the Psi Chi-National Honor Society in Psychology.
