About

Hi, I am Susan Morgan, a Licensed Professional Counselor in the Jackson, MS area. I offer a client-centered, solution-focused counseling/therapy service to both individuals and couples through a private practice called "The Path of Life Counseling". I enjoy offering my client emotional, relational and situational support. My aim is to provide an environment in which each client may feel safe and comfortable discussing issues in their hearts and lives that they find troubling, painful or confusing.

I seek feedback from clients along the way to help insure that we stay on track together. Some have shared that perhaps what they most appreciate is having gained a new perspective and sense of personal power while navigating through a difficult and painful situation. I have also heard both individuals and couples with whom I have worked express that they appreciate the helpful self awareness, self acceptance and communication tools they have acquired during the course of counseling/therapy. I seek to provide an opportunity for each client to go forward with a renewed sense of hope, direction and confidence.
