Thriving Minds, Empowered Lives - Unleash Your Potential at Empowered Living Mental Health Practice.
Joni Morse
Co-Owner
When you think of someone who loves life and people think of me, Joni Morse.
I attended Indianapolis Public Schools for my primary education and graduated from Washington High School. I received my bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Martin University in Indianapolis. I continued my education to receive a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Christian Theological Seminary.
I’m living my best life as a proud mother of one son and one grandson. I have been a part of Empowered Living for over 10 years.
During the past 10 years, I have participated in the staging of the play “The Vagina Monologues” and other community events. Because we are a “holistic therapy practice”, we find unconventional ways to reach prospective clients. We also sponsor the play as part of a fundraiser to develop funds to be able to offer scholarships to those who would otherwise not be able to afford therapy.
I attended the Bloomington Meadows Hospital Annual Mental Health Conference for several years to continue my education and learn new laws and therapeutic techniques. I love being able to see healing begin in my clients.
Athena Salisbury
COO/Co-Owner
Athena Salisbury, an Indianapolis native, has a heart for others. At times volunteering at a local community center or donating to a local cause. Athena has a certificate of life coaching and owns a jewelry crafting business, Goddess Adorn.
While balances entrepreneurship, she finds time to spend time with her fra-mily especially her amazing grandlove LJ. "Being a mom was challenging and fun but being a Neena
(grandmother) is life changing"
"I believe what I lack in formal education is minimal compared to life experience. Sure, I wanted to have letters behind my name and be recognized on stage. But my life has taught me more than a book could." Joining Empowered Living has been an epiphany for Athena. "I have learned what mental health is, how I should guard my mental health and when to spot others having a break down." Being a part of Empowered Living has been a game changer in life. Being mentally healthy is also a game changer. Empowered Living may not be a good fit for you, we encourage you to find a safe place to navigate any feelings you may experience.
