Morgan Bissegger
I am a Registered Psychologist practicing in Edmonton, Alberta. I have been providing counselling services since 2015, prior to which I supported children and youth in residential and school settings. I am passionate about providing collaborative supports to children and youth to facilitate healthy development.
I utilize attachment theory, play therapy, narrative therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) to meet my clients at their developmental level and give them space to express their perception of the world in a safe and meaningful way. Outside of the office I take time to explore the city and be outside. I also ensure space for fitness, reading, and spending time with my friends and family.
