My name is Morgan Ellsworth, LAMFT, and I’ve experienced this firsthand.

Whether you are navigating the impact of infidelity, compulsive behaviors, or relational trauma, you don’t have to sort through it alone. My work is focused on helping you stabilize, make sense of what has happened, and begin moving forward with intention.

Betrayal impacts the entire family.
And everyone deserves a chance to heal.

Who I Help:


My approach is grounded in the Multidimensional Partner Trauma Model (MPTM) for supporting betrayed partners, alongside family systems theory and Brainspotting for trauma processing. I integrate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when helpful and draw on Internal Family Systems (IFS) interventions to deepen insight and emotional processing. I also use Solutions Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) strategies with clients to gain forward momentum in their recovery journey. My work blends trauma processing and actionable steps to help you heal entirely. This integrative approach allows us to address both emotional safety and nervous system regulation, not just surface-level communication

Meet Morgan Ellsworth, LAMFT

I am a licensed associate marriage and family therapist (LAMFT) specializing in betrayal trauma recovery and relational healing. I am a Certified Clinical Partner Specialist-Associate (CCPS-A) through the Association of Partners of Sex Addicts Trauma Specialists (APSATS). I work with individuals, couples, and families who are navigating the impact of betrayal, helping them stabilize distress, make sense of their experience, and move toward repair.

My approach is grounded, trauma-informed, and focused on restoring safety and clarity in both internal and relational systems. I incorporate emotional and relational skills building with trauma processing using modalities such as DBT and Brainspotting.

My goal is to help families heal from the pain of relational betrayal, create safety in relationships, and experience post-traumatic growth over time.

My personal and professional philosophy is that healing from betrayal is not about rushing forgiveness or forcing outcomes. It’s about creating safety, witnessing the pain, understanding the impact, and supporting each person in finding clarity and stability. From that place, meaningful decisions and repair become possible.
