LCPC
Taysue Morris, LPC, NCC, M-RAS is a Licensed Professional Counselor, doctoral candidate in Counselor Education and Supervision at The George Washington University, children’s book author, and family mental health advocate with specialized experience supporting children and families navigating reunification, parental planning, and high conflict family transitions. She holds a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Johns Hopkins University and a Bachelor of Science in Family Science from Towson University, grounding her clinical work in both systemic and developmentally informed practice.
Taysue brings a strong background across diverse clinical and non clinical settings, including hospital based services, schools, community based programs, private practice, and therapeutic working environments. This breadth of experience strengthens her ability to coordinate care across systems, collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary teams, and support families with complex needs, particularly when services intersect with school supports, community resources, and court adjacent processes.
Taysue specializes in reunification therapy and court adjacent family work, supporting children and caregivers impacted by separation, divorce, prolonged conflict, disrupted attachments, and strained parent child relationships. Her work emphasizes child centered reunification, emotional safety, and structured therapeutic pacing, particularly in cases involving high conflict, parental estrangement, or extended periods of disrupted contact. She collaborates thoughtfully with parents and allied professionals, including attorneys, parenting coordinators, and other treatment providers as appropriate, to support parenting plans, therapeutic goals, and healthier co parenting dynamics, while maintaining clear role boundaries, neutrality, and a trauma informed clinical stance.
Her clinical approach integrates family systems theory, narrative therapy, attachment informed interventions, mindfulness, and strengths based practices. Taysue works with children, adolescents, young adults, and adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, anger dysregulation, and school related challenges, including IEP and 504 support. With younger children and families, she utilizes developmentally appropriate modalities such as play therapy, art based interventions, sand tray, and expressive storytelling to help children safely process complex emotions and rebuild trust within family relationships, while also coaching caregivers in co regulation, boundaries, and conflict reducing parenting strategies.
Taysue is the founder of Story Crafters, a therapeutic storytelling initiative that empowers children and adults to author and publish their own narratives as a means of healing, identity development, and resilience. Across all settings, she brings a calm, attuned, and structured presence to high conflict situations, helping families move toward clarity, stability, and healthier relational patterns while centering the emotional wellbeing and developmental needs of the child.
