  • Helping individuals and professionals cultivate inner-resilience, self-trust, and meaningful transformation.

    Dr. Morgan Lindsey is a licensed professional counselor with nearly 20 years of experience specializing in resilience building, self-compassion, and trauma recovery. She holds a Ph.D. in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Counseling.

    As the founder of Resilience Partners, PLLC, Dr. Lindsey leads a practice dedicated to integrating modern neuroscience with ancient wisdom traditions. She is deeply grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFIO), incorporating both models extensively into her work.

    In addition to these approaches, Dr. Lindsey integrates the Self-Trust and Inner Resilience (STAIR) methodology into her therapy practice. STAIR emphasizes the development of emotional capacity and inner resilience, helping clients cultivate a stronger relationship with themselves. By weaving this approach into her work, Dr. Lindsey supports clients in building the self-trust necessary to navigate challenging emotions, foster healthier internal dialogue, and create a stable foundation for long-term healing and growth inside and out, professionally and personally.

    A passionate educator and mentor, Dr. Lindsey is committed to training the next generation of therapists and coaches. She supervises emerging practitioners, facilitates consultation groups for experienced clinicians, and serves as an adjunct professor at Naropa University’s Master's in Therapy Program, where she teaches courses on psychotherapy and integrative healing approaches.

    Beyond academia, Dr. Lindsey has developed training materials for therapists, including a course with Therapy Wisdom. She has also been actively involved with both IFS and IFIO for over a decade, serving as a program assistant and co-leader for multiple trainings and retreats directly with Toni Herbine Blank, the founder of IFIO, and Dick Schwartz, the creator of IFS.

  • Leilani Long brings over two decades of experience in public education, where she's worked extensively with students ranging from advanced placement classes to dropout prevention programs.  Her teaching journey is rooted in both academic rigor and deep compassion, always meeting students and families where they are and helping them grow from there.  Her lifelong passion for connection and growth is reflected in every space she enters including her continued involvement since 2002 with a summer camp that is focused on social and emotional development.

    Beyond the classroom and the campfire, Leilani serves as a ritualist for a community of women, supporting rites of passage and the passage of time through a sacred lens. She studied ritual facilitation through two apprenticeships and holds a Master’s degree in Spiritual Psychology which informs her grounded and heart-centered approach to moving with others through threshold moments.

    Whether through somatic movement, partner acrobatics, dance, or facilitation, Leilani is passionate about building spaces that foster joy, connection, and transformation. Her work lives at the intersection of education, emotional wellness, and embodied play — always with an open heart and a spark of magic.
