Ashley Morgan,
MA, LMFT
My passion lies in helping others reduce distress brought on by adversity such as anxiety, depression and strained relationships.
I aim to meet each individual, couple or family at their unique starting point and to model a safe, non-judgmental and empathetic relationship so that we may work together to achieve your personal goals, enhance your mental health and explore what potential your close relationships possess.

Education
I received my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from California State University Sacramento. Early on in my education I was certain that I wanted to gain a better understanding of the factors that drive human behaviors and shape their identities. I found that one of these key factors includes our close relationships, whether they be with family, friends or are more romantic, and how they play a major role in shaping each and every unique individual. This vital impact that our relationships have on our day-to-day wellness is what drove me towards wanting to study and practice marriage and family therapy. I then attended and received my master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Alliant International University Sacramento. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #138992.
Professional
Prior to joining the Davis Group I worked in a community agency with a wide range of clients, including mandated family law clients, victims of crime, and the facilitation of an anger management group. Mostly, this experience has assisted me in recognizing the enthusiasm I have for helping those who have endured trauma heal, as well as my interest in working with couples that are looking for guidance in repairing and growing within their relationships.
Clinical Specialties
- Thriving after a traumatic experience. I have been training in Brainspotting, one of the most popular approaches for this work.
- Couples looking for pre-marital therapy, or coping with issues including infidelity, sexual intimacy and harmful communication patterns
- Blended families adjusting to their new family structure
- Helping parents and children get along. I’ve been trained in Parent-Child Interactive Therapy
Personal
I primarily grew up on the central coast of California where I would often enjoy watching sunsets and having bonfires on the beach. I moved to Sacramento to begin college in 2013 and have since grown to appreciate what California’s capitol has to offer. I feel my best when spending time outdoors while hiking, having BBQ’s with friends and family and spending days lounging at home with my husband, dog and two cats.
