MEET OUR RECREATIONAL THERAPY STAFF
Lilly Biggins
Recreational Therapist
I graduated from Indiana University with a Bachelor of Science in Recreational Therapy with distinction, along with a minor in Kinesiology. During my time at IU, I completed my internship at IU Health in the Behavioral Health Unit, where I gained hands-on experience providing therapeutic recreation services to individuals with a variety of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, and psychosis-related conditions such as schizophrenia. I also worked with community-based organizations such as Best Buddies, PALS Therapy (People and Animal Learning Services), and IU Adapted Physical Activity to promote inclusive, accessible recreation. I am now a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS).
Off the Clock: When I’m not working, I enjoy riding and spending time with my horse, JJ. I also love hiking, thrifting, crafting, attending concerts, and traveling to new places. These hobbies keep me grounded, creative, and connected to nature — all of which influence my work in positive ways.

Morgan Coeling
Recreational Therapist
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Recreational Therapy from the University of Toledo, where I also played collegiate volleyball for four years as a middle hitter. I went on to earn my Master’s degree in Community Care Counseling from Indiana Wesleyan University. I completed my internship with Pure Abilities in Fort Wayne, working with individuals of all ages and abilities. Through my education and experience, I developed a strong passion for supporting others, building meaningful connections, and serving diverse communities.
Off the Clock: Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and young daughter, with another daughter joining our family in April 2026. We love being outdoors and especially enjoy going for walks together. I also enjoy challenging myself physically, whether at the gym or training outdoors for a 5K or 10K. In my downtime, you’ll often find me listening to audiobooks while walking or tackling chores at home.
Personal Theme Song: This was a tough choice! Throughout high school and into college, Overcomer by Mandisa was a song I leaned on heavily. More recently, I’ve connected deeply with Joy by KING & COUNTRY. With so many things in life trying to pull us in different directions, choosing joy has become incredibly important to me and is something I continue to work toward every day.

Off the Clock: I spend a lot of time with my family. Some of my girls play softball, so we spend a lot of time practicing at home and at the diamonds for games. I also love to help my youngest daughter practice for 4h on our horse, Grace. We love to ride Grace and Zen together. My oldest daughter and mom also like to come ride as well. I also love schooling the horses at CRC and getting some more time in the saddle myself.
