I know because

I’ve been there

There came a point where I was tired of falling victim to my darkness. I knew that if I kept choosing to live life the way I had been that it would only ever amount to being a miserable existence, but I also knew that my darkness was gatekeeping the path towards my soul’s alignment. I sensed it was not going to be possible for my life to reach its fullest expression if I was unwilling to own the darkness within. That the darkness knew the way, and I was never going to feel free until I was in process of facing, feeling, accepting, and connecting with all parts (pleasant and unpleasant) of this human experience.

✦ 3/19/2026-10/29/2026 ✦

The Framework

Ascend The Underworld Within combines the healing modalities of journaling (mind), Somatic Activated Healing™ (body), expressive art (heart), and dream reflection (spirit).

One may speak to you more than the other, but through the integration of it all: mind, body, heart, and spirit, is what creates space for soul liberation.

  • This is a widely known practice you are most likely already familiar with, but to reiterate, journaling works with the mind, the conscious self, and the logical side of the brain. The way I will have you utilize journaling is to help you gain further awareness around the stories or programs you are holding onto, take inventory of behaviors, learn how to name the feeling, and build a relationship with different parts of self.

  • This has become quite popular now because the western world is finally understanding that the body does in fact keep the score and when emotional turmoil is suppressed long enough it can turn into physical pain or disease. But remember, using dance/movement to heal is not some new revolutionary concept. This is how your ancestors practiced liberation by dancing with their darkness, and now it is time for you to remember that connection.

    The way I work somatically is a blend of intuition and Somatic Activated Healing™. I guide you to connect with the body through intentional movement, breath, and trance like states which creates the space for feelings to flow through you instead of their energetic charge remaining stuck inside your body. 

    The individualized somatic practices given will be different than the live or recorded classes provided. Through our time together, I will be able to hone in on what still has your soul imprisoned to curate specific somatic moves and personal practices for you to implement, teaching you how to work with it, and free yourself from the inside out.

    If you’re curious about somatic movement in general or wondering how I would guide a class, by joining my email list, here, you automatically get access to 2 free somatic classes.

  • This is freely expressing yourself in the moment with various art materials. It is about letting the emotion, memory, story, or vision move through you onto the page vs trying to create an art piece that looks “good.” Using art to express yourself takes you beyond talking and journaling. Art effortlessly taps into the heart and unconscious mind by bringing forth information to conscious awareness. Making the unknown, known. Utilizing expressive art will give you visual representation of your current state of existing, further integrate the somatic healing and dreamwork, awaken your creative life force, and expand your conscious mind. All coming together to aide in the embodiment of liberation.

    If you are not used to working with art, I will also provide you with a list of art supplies so you can easily pick the materials you feel called to and know what to purchase!

  • This is a way to connect to your spirit and soul. To understand how dreams speak THROUGH you revealing the troubles and joys of your soul. Dreams also reveal the messages your ancestors, spirit guides, and god/source/the divine want you to receive. The egoic defenses drop down the most through the dream state, giving you a clearer path to hidden information within your soul. This goes beyond psychodynamic dreamwork, and back to the roots of how our ancestors practiced to go deeper than the mere headspace of dreams. And yes, they do mean something, you just have to learn how to pay attention to its language, which is part of what I will be teaching you!

Meet your guide

Kelsey Morgan

Art, dance, and dreams have been woven into my world ever since I was a child. It’s surreal to acknowledge that my soul has been guiding me through these medicines my entire life. I was quite literally born for this and I am incredibly grateful to now be in a position to guide others through their darkness.

I received my Master of Arts in Art Therapy with an Emphasis in Counseling in 2020, I became a certified Somatic Activated Healing™ teacher in 2023, I completed my Registered Art Therapist (ATR) credential in 2024, and I’ve been seeing clients since 2018. Originally, Ascend The Underworld Within started out as a research study (Self-Care After Trauma: A heuristic inquiry utilizing Art Therapy, Journaling, and Dream Reflection).

Creating a research study to then write a thesis was a requirement in order to graduate. Academic research was not my strong suit, but I was determined to create something that would help people navigate their darkness while learning how to take care of themselves. I was already fed up with all the band-aid remedies that were infiltrated throughout the mental health system. I wanted to create a protocol that guided people in remembering their wholeness because we didn’t need another quick fix to take the edge off.

The results of my study showed post-traumatic growth, built resilience, and radical acceptance. These results showed me that I was just at the beginning of birthing something that was much bigger than a research study. It took some time (along with questioning my sanity) but this container evolved out of the word of academia and into what it is today.

Through continuous self-study, mentorship, and deeper embodiment came a remembering that this medicine is what indigenous people and mystics have been teaching wondering souls for thousands of years. I have my unique imprint of how I deliver the blend of medicines (while staying in my lane of lineage), but this is nothing new. Which provided confirmation that this container did not belong within the regulations of therapy or academia. This is the work of transforming your soul. Liberating you from the inside out.

Over the years I have worked with hundreds of clients as an Art Therapist. I have witnessed amazing results of people recovering from PTSD, getting off their medications, going after their dreams, experiencing healthy relationships, no longer people pleasing, etc. But nothing compares to the level of liberation that occurs as a result of journeying through this container.

To intentionally blend the medicines of journaling, somatic dance, expressive art, and dream reflection. To experience shadow work beyond psychoanalysis and into embodiment is what this next wave of seekers need. If you’ve been looking for your next level of soul alignment and freedom, I’m telling you, this is it.

This is for you if:

  • You are wanting to discover the deep inner-workings of your soul.

  • Your darkness can feel overpowering, yet you want to be able to sit with it to understand its wisdom. To no longer be afraid of it (yourself).

  • You crave to experience shadow work that goes beyond psychoanalysis and into embodiment.

  • You no longer want to be numb or escape the present moment, your body, your life. You’re tired of running away from yourself.

  • You’re willing to take radical accountability for all parts of self, pleasant and unpleasant.

  • You can feel it’s time to get back into the pit of your darkness to alchemize the lessons it has to give instead of looping in the same old patterns.

  • You are open to believe that darkness is neither "bad" or "good" and are open to letting go of the hierarchal view of light and dark.

  • You want to give your pain the opportunity to transform into acceptance, compassion, and unconditional love.

  • You understand that this is going to be hard work. The liberation path is not a quick fix, you will be rocked to your core, it often gets worse before it gets better, but you sense deep down that this is the way.

If any of these statements resonated with you

OR triggered you, this container is FOR YOU.

The 5 Phases

Ascend The Underworld Within is broken down into 5 Phases:

 

Phase 1:

This is more than the beginning. You have entered upon an undertaking of your soul being brought into existence.

4 weeks

Phase 2:

The deep dive. The process by which a potentiality enters into actuality. The shadows have come to play.

7 weeks

Phase 3:

The process to extract the soluble elements of your soul. The seeds have been planted in the fertile soil of your being and can now sprout into the essence of your awakening soul.

7 weeks

Phase 4:

The process of starting to integrate the wisdom you have surfaced into the entire structure of your soul. The most critical phase. If this is not completed, everything will be undone.

9 weeks

Phase 5:

The beginning of the end. Your soul has been awakening, ascending, and integrating. Life will never be the same. As above, so below.

5 weeks

 

My Experience

When I began this internal work, it took some time for me to fully commit to the liberation path, but there came a point where I started to know too much. I was realizing the patterns in my daily choices, how I perceived myself, how I perceived the world, and what I was unwilling to feel was not only keeping me stuck, but was perpetuating the darkness I so desperately was trying to escape.

As I began to commit myself to this liberation path the transformation was undeniable. I went from existing in an abusive marriage, feeling trapped by the darkness that was my life, isolated from the world, and blaming my trauma for the way that I was… To taking radical accountability for my existence, leaving absolutely everything behind, surrendering to the unknown, courageously starting life over, and freeing myself from the depths of my despair.

As I was co-creating freedom on the outside, I noticed how I still felt locked in a cage on the inside. This is where the deeper embodiment work came into play. Recognizing the imprisonment that was present through self-sabotaging neglectful behaviors, my nervous system stuck in functional freeze, and I was still struggling with daily skin picking even after years of therapy. I was in a loop of having accomplished all this deep trauma work, my reality had already drastically changed for the better, but there was this gap between me, internal freedom, and stepping into my soul’s potential.

I chose to stay the course. Building a devotional practice to make liberation a lifestyle. Trusting that when I keep choosing to strengthen the relationship to my darkness, my internal world, and be with what is, that change is inevitable. Then before my eyes, I began to witness the transmutation of self-neglect to self-love, sensations of freeze to momentum of consistently showing up for myself, a fearful guarded heart to choosing to keep my heart open, and the skin picking continues to drastically decrease. The scars on my body have finally been healing and I rarely wear make-up anymore.

I have felt myself land into a profound layer of unconditional love, choosing myself, stepping into my soul’s power, allowing myself to be seen, and feeling the freest I have ever been. All thanks to the work that I am now here to guide you in through this container!

Testimonials

  • As someone who has had the privilege of both working with and knowing Kelsey personally, I am compelled to express the profound impact she has had on my life. Kelsey, an exceptional human, therapist, and somatic activated healer, with an extensive grasp of dream interpretation and subconscious exploration, brings a unique skill set that leads to profound change and lasting healing. When I first met Kelsey, I was fueled by a willingness to change and desire to engage in a deep exploration of my soul, which was wrapped in a deep-seated trauma and emotional turmoil. Her scholarly understanding of the human psyche, combined with her intuitive approach to energy and the subconscious, was enlightening, to say the least. My expectations fell short in comparison to the depths I could reach by engaging in her multi-step process and facing my darkness, with her acting as my guide and support. Kelsey skillfully integrates movement into therapy, helping to release and resolve trauma stored in the body. Her methods involve not just conversations but immersive experiences that engage body and mind. Through her guidance, I learned to understand and listen to my body’s wisdom, unlocking new pathways to self-awareness and healing. Her immense capacity for empathy and profound understanding of human trauma allows her to understand what creates a proper safe space, and deliver large containers for extended periods of time, at full capacity. The journey with Kelsey has been transformative. Her ability to blend art therapy, dreamwork, and other healing practices has shed light on areas of my life that were once shrouded in darkness. I am immensely grateful for her support and guidance and can confidently recommend her to anyone seeking a multifaceted approach to healing and personal and spiritual growth. Thank you, Kelsey, for being a healer, guide, and friend on this incredible journey of self-discovery and development.

    - Saúl

  • I have had a few therapists in my time. I have not had one like Kelsey. Not only does she take her job seriously, there is heart and passion behind it that makes the experience genuine and moving. Throughout my time with Kelsey, I have really had a metamorphosis. I had issues with communicating, expressing, feeling, and working through my emotions. I struggled with depression and paranoia regularly. Now, I can confidently say I have the tools, experience, and knowledge of what I can do to help myself and have found inner happiness and it’s thanks to her guidance. The energy you put into during the work will be matched at 110%. She is down to earth, articulates herself and the point well, and explains psychological/spiritual concepts in a way that someone entirely new to the world of mental health and self-care can understand. She has truly put my life on a better path, and I have no doubt in my mind she can do the same for you. I cannot recommend her enough.

    - Josh

  • Having learned alongside Kelsey in the SAH Method as well as having the privilege of attending her classes, I can say without a doubt that she is nothing short of an inspiration. Kelsey is a very knowledgeable practitioner and her commitment to this work is remarkable. She has a ferocious curiosity that always keeps her leveling up. In her classes, she’s the type of teacher that’ll feel like a friend, even when she’s calling you on your bullshit (it’s always out of love and for your own personal growth). She’s someone whose got your back and knows how to help you meet yourself even when it gets sticky, because she has walked the walk herself and has come out on the other side. I couldn’t recommend this embodied Queen enough!

    - Lauren

  • I’ve known Kelsey for quite some time and we have developed a deep connection. Her ability to hold space for me, to give me the tough love, and always be honest with me is unparalleled. She has been there with me through the worst year of my life, and continued to support me and hold such a safe space that I’m always able to show up exactly as I am and be seen, heard, and understood. Her ability to intuitively know what needs to be said in the moment and what needs to wait for another time is a true skill. Her ability to sit with discomfort and unpleasantries is inspiring. She is a true healer and is unafraid to be in the depths with you.

    - Breeana

  • Kelsey is ridiculously kind hearted and understanding and it comes across in her approach. Her coaching is clear, grounded, and very comfortable. I wish I had a friend like Kelsey when I was younger- she is such a positive energy to be around and I leave her presence more lighthearted than when I showed up! That being said- she is also not wishy washy or new age edgy- she is the real deal with a beautiful no bullshit style that is refreshing. I love her research into everything and the flow of how she shares with you what she knows. Whatever Kelsey is doing- it would benefit you to pay attention- and probably take notes.

    - Kiohma

  • Kelsey is an extraordinary healer who leads you on a journey of self-reflection, growth, and expansion. By sharing her own experiences, you feel a deep inner knowing, trust, and connection to how she is guiding you. She is authentic and compassionate and helps you see where you can change your perspective to progress through your own healing. Kelsey’s Somatic Activated Healing classes are expansive and revitalizing, they have helped me to open up and connect movement in my healing journey. She is a beautiful soul that will help you in many ways. It’s a blessing to be able to know and work with her.

    - Jenni

  • Kelsey's devotion and true willingness to embody the work of Somatic Activated Healing reinforces the leadership that is innately expressed through her. Kelsey infuses the wisdom of her own lived experiences into the offering of her genuine and devoted study to create truly unique and impactful offerings. Her desire to be a change agent and to provide opportunities for people to actively heal themselves is expressed powerfully and purposefully. To be supported by Kelsey in this life is to be held and nurtured by a genuine healer leading the way with innovation and creativity. A once in a lifetime opportunity not to be missed.

    -Lena

  • Kelsey’s SAH Method classes was a lovely way to release trapped emotions and stored trauma in a way that is gentle, uplifting, and in an engaging way. The movements are in different sequences that allow release along certain meridians and pathways in the body. It’s like yoga and dance combined with breathwork. Her passion to help others heal in an authentic way makes me highly recommend her programs.

    - Marla

  • Kelsey holds a very nurturing and safe space during her sessions. In her presence, I felt safe to drop into my own body. As Kelsey guided me, I followed her voice and just let myself go. By the end of the session, I felt that so much had moved through me. It was more than I had expected to move through me. I left the session feeling lighter, like a weight had been lifted from my shoulders.

    - Yvonne

  • Kelsey brings a beautiful energy and creates a safe space to feel and express emotions in her somatic classes. I was surprised and impressed at the emotions that surfaced! Thanks for the healing, Kelsey, and I am looking forward to doing more of your classes!

    - Natalie

  • When I first met Kelsey, she stood out to me for her tenacity and dedication to her craft. Now that we are closer, I know her, and she is exactly that: OUTSTANDING. There are few I trust with my heart and healing, and she is one of them.

FAQ’s

Freaquently Asked Questions

  • - All zoom calls will be recorded and replays will be uploaded the following day. If you’re unable to attend a live session, it will be expected for recordings to be watched, and for you to complete the somatic session before the next live group call.

  • - No. If you are wanting to seek therapeutic services, please visit my Art Therapy webpage.

  • -  You do not have to have any experience with art or movement to work with me! The way I guide you through art and movement/somatic dance is about expression vs skill. The purpose is to learn how to connect to your body, emotions, unconscious mind, shadows, and soul. I will guide you through the process and before you know it, it will feel like a natural form of embodiment practice and expression. The more awkward or unhinged the art and movement looks the better!

    -  If you are not used to working with art, I will also provide you with a list of art supplies so you can easily pick the materials you feel called to and know what to purchase!

  • -   Everyone has the capability to remember their dreams. If you currently do not remember them that is okay! I will teach you how to remember, document, and work with your dreams. No previous experience is required.

  • -  The SAH Method™ is a radical wellness practice that combines the healing modalities of somatic movement, rhythmic breath, mantras, ecstatic dance (freely moving your body), and meditation. The SAH Method™ utilizes a bottom-up approach in which the body is the entry point for healing. It addresses and unlocks the suppressed emotions in your body rather than analyzing them with the mind. This method teaches you how to connect to the body, be with the feelings as they arise, and let go of emotional baggage while ALSO increasing your capacity to experience love and joy! A truly liberating practice that turns into a way of life!

    -  Try a class for free when you sign up for my email list, here.

  • -  You can still participate and reap the benefits of somatic movement regardless of your physical capabilities! This is for all bodies. I will be able to make appropriate modifications for your physical needs during the live calls. For the recorded classes, we can workshop together changes to make for your body ahead of time before you dive into the library of class replays.

    -  There are many variations for the movements, and remember, you also have full authority over your body. If something feels off and you need to move differently, listen to the body. And please consult with your medical provider before engaging in any somatic class. If you have any further questions for me in relation to this topic please have them prepared so we can discuss in more detail on the clarity call!

  • -  This exchange is non-refundable. There is plenty of space for you to decide and understand the commitment of the work offered before saying yes to it. If after the application has been submitted, the clarity call has been completed, and you still decide to commit by submitting your first payment, your payments will be processed for the entire duration as agreed.
