My Approach to Helping

My name is Chelise King. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Idaho State University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC). I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology.
I believe that mental health challenges are personal and coming to counseling elicits vulnerability. I am eager to provide a nurturing environment which encourages honesty and authenticity. There is no judgement in our space together. Your voice is crucial to the healing process and our work together will be collaborative. I understand that it takes courage to start counseling and I acknowledge that step towards healing and growth.

I offer counseling to a wide population of individuals, with a variety of reasons for seeking help. I specialize in working with teenagers who struggle with anxiety related disorders. I operate from a Cognitive Behavioral theoretical lens, which encourages clients to investigate the relationship between their thoughts and behaviors, with an emphasis on core beliefs and personal narratives. I have an interest in Mindfulness-based counseling, which incorporates meditation, breathing exercises, and body scanning. The approach taken will vary depending on the presenting concerns.

I am in-network with many commercial insurance carriers. I can also provide a superbill for my out of network clients to help with reimbursement. Please reach out with any questions, we are happy to work with you to keep therapy affordable.

Specialties & Expertise

Life can sometimes become overwhelming, and even the healthiest coping strategies may no longer feel effective. A mental health crisis can occur when emotional distress, traumatic events, or ongoing mental health challenges make it difficult to cope with everyday life. During these times, you may feel overwhelmed, helpless, anxious, or as though you have lost control.

As an outpatient mental health provider, I offer crisis intervention services to help individuals navigate difficult situations, stabilize emotional distress, and develop healthy coping strategies. Together, we will identify immediate concerns, build resilience, and develop practical skills to manage future challenges while supporting your long-term emotional well-being.

I am a Telehealth Provider

I know that it can be hard to fit appointments into your daily life. Leaving home when you are managing mental health symptoms, or even just finding time to commute regularly to an in-person appointment can be difficult. Telehealth is the ability to provide mental health care services from a distance through technology

Client Focus

Morgan Health Centers offers a variety of mental health services designed to meet the unique needs of each individual. We recognize that every person’s experiences, challenges, and goals are different, which is why treatment is personalized and tailored to your specific needs. Whether you are seeking support for a specific mental health concern, navigating a life transition, or working toward personal growth and emotional wellness, we are committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care.

Types of Mental Health Services

Morgan Health Centers offers a variety of mental health services designed to meet the unique needs of each individual. Depending on your treatment plan and clinical needs, services may be provided in one or more of the following formats:

Individual Therapy & Counseling
Individual therapy, also known as psychotherapy or talk therapy, is a confidential, one-on-one session between you and a licensed mental health professional. In a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment, you can explore personal concerns, develop healthy coping strategies, improve emotional well-being, and work toward meaningful personal goals.

Marital & Couples Counseling
Couples counseling helps spouses and partners strengthen their relationship by improving communication, resolving conflicts, rebuilding trust, and navigating life transitions together. Therapy may also help partners better understand the impact of a mental health condition and develop effective ways to support one another.

Premarital Counseling
Premarital counseling helps couples prepare for a healthy, lasting marriage. Sessions focus on strengthening communication, discussing expectations, addressing potential areas of conflict, developing problem-solving skills, and establishing shared goals before marriage.

Relationship Counseling
Relationship counseling is designed to improve communication and resolve interpersonal challenges between two or more individuals. Services may include counseling for married couples, partners, family members, parents and children, siblings, in-laws, friends, coworkers, or others seeking healthier relationships.

Telehealth
Telehealth, also known as teletherapy or virtual counseling, allows patients to receive mental health services remotely through secure video conferencing technology. Telehealth offers a convenient and confidential option for many individuals while maintaining the same quality of care as in-person sessions when clinically appropriate.

Ages I Work With

Mental health needs change throughout every stage of life. Major life transitions, relationships, school, work, family responsibilities, aging, and unexpected challenges can all affect emotional well-being. Maintaining healthy habits, such as eating a balanced diet, staying physically active, getting adequate sleep, managing stress, and building healthy relationships, can help support positive mental health and overall wellness.

When mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, or other emotional and behavioral challenges begin to interfere with daily life, obtaining an accurate diagnosis and receiving age-appropriate, individualized treatment are essential. I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health services tailored to each person’s unique needs, helping individuals develop healthy coping skills, build resilience, and improve their quality of life.

I offer mental health services for:

  • Teens (12+)
  • Adults (18-55)
  • Elders (56-100+)

How I Can Help

Mental health challenges exist on a broad spectrum, ranging from the everyday stressors and life transitions we all experience to more serious emotional distress, mental health crises, and long-term mental health conditions. A mental health crisis occurs when life’s challenges become overwhelming and a person’s usual coping strategies are no longer effective. During these times, individuals may feel helpless, distressed, anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, or as though they are losing control of their lives.

I am trained to help individuals navigate these difficult situations by providing compassionate, evidence-based support in a safe and nonjudgmental environment. Together, we can identify the underlying concerns, develop healthy coping skills, build resilience, and create practical strategies to manage current challenges and promote long-term emotional well-being.

Some of the client concerns, mental health challenges, and conditions I commonly treat include:

  • Adolescent Issues
  • Agoraphobia

Treatment Approach

Psychotherapy, also referred to as talk therapy, psycho-social therapy, counseling, or, simply, therapy, is the primary method for treating mental health problems by talking with a mental health provider. The goal is to help an individual better understand their mental health and teach strategies and tools that manage unhealthy thoughts and behaviors.

While there are many approaches to psychotherapy, there is no single approach that works for everyone. A  therapist may use a blended approach, sampling techniques from several diverse types of psychotherapy. The kind of psychotherapy a person receives depends on their unique needs. 

The following are some of the evidence-based psychotherapy approaches I use to help individuals address mental health concerns, develop healthy coping skills, and achieve their treatment goals. Your treatment plan will be tailored to your unique needs and may incorporate one or more of these therapeutic approaches.

Types of Therapy

  • Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)
  • Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
  • Client-Centered Therapy 
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
  • Emotion focused individual & Couples Therapy 
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy
  • Journal Therapy 
  • Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
  • Mindfulness-Based Interventions
  • Narrative Therapy 
  • Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT)
  • Person-Centered Therapy (Rogerian Therapy)
  • Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)

Industries & Communities Served

Community can be defined in many ways, but when simplified down to its most important element, community is all about connection. Community is not just an entity or a group of people, it’s a feeling. It’s feeling connected to others, feeling accepted for who you are and feeling supported.

We’re social beings, and we are not meant to live in isolation. Community is critical for us to thrive, especially for someone with mental illness who is already experiencing the common symptoms of loneliness and isolation. Below are some of the communities I work with to help provide a sense of belonging, support, and purpose.

  • Education
  • Entertainment Industry
  • First Responder/Medical
  • Professionals
  • Military/Law Enforcement
  • Professional Sports
  • Self-Employed and Freelance Professionals
