About Clara Morgan, RSW, RCC
My name is Clara. I have both a Bachelors degree and Masters degree in Social Work. As a very young child I identified that I wanted to be a psychiatrist, and what I meant by that was that I wanted to be a therapist.
I wanted to help others, and am here to help you. Life can be better than it may seem right now, and I have helped many people see real improvements.
​
I will display deep compassion for you and your experience, no matter what is happening for you. It means a great deal to me when you honour me with your story.
​
My choice to become a Social Worker has shaped my approach, helping me to be very client-centred, to grasp the significant effects of abuse, oppression, discrimination, and marginalization on people's lives, and to appreciate how complex we all are.
This means that I will appreciate and understand your experiences on a deeper level and help you empower yourself.
My work in community mental health has also given me a strong background in assessing and treating mental illness, mental health challenges, and addiction. I didn’t get to pick who I wanted to see, requiring me to find ways to work with anyone who came to me.
​
Having helped so many different clients and issues in my practice, I have countless tools and resources, and can help almost anyone who comes to see me.
​
Since I worked in psychiatry for a number of years, I have significant knowledge around medication, diagnoses, and when to seek a higher level of clinical mental health services.

This means I can also support you in understanding and seeking mental health diagnoses, medication, and additional clinical help if you wish, being very familiar with options and what might be going on for you.
​
I am registered with ICBC, the First Nations Health Authority (FNHA), and the Crime Victim's Assistance Program (CVAP) and I can direct bill these agencies if you have been offered free or subsidized sessions under their programs.
My professional registration numbers are:
09760 with the BCCSW & 19919 with the BCACC

I acknowledge that I live and carry out my work on the unceded ancestral homelands of the hÉ™nÌ“qÌ“É™minÌ“É™mÌ“ and Sḵwx̱wú7mesh-speaking peoples. I am grateful for this privilege.
