No one seeks therapy for the same reasons. We all have our different stories and challenges, and external and internal influences. It takes courage to take that first step and reach out. It really does. My goal is always to meet every client with compassion. I value and appreciate the courage it takes to open up and talk about issues in your life, relationship difficulties, regrets, and challenges. I consider it an honor to sit with clients, hear your story, and help you realize and illuminate your inner-strengths.

I work with people of all ages committed to developing self-awareness in order to change or enhance their quality of life. I work with children experiencing anxiety, depression, and home/school challenges. Supporting children usually involves working with parents/guardians and families. I enjoy working with individual adults interested in understanding themselves, their relationships, and their actions. My therapy practice includes play therapy and art therapy, sand-play, active listening, family systems work, and parenting education. I am curious and compassionate in my relationship to clients with varying needs and backgrounds.

My practice is in neuropsychology, and I am specialized in evaluation, assessment, and diagnosis of neuropsychological conditions; I am not a practicing therapist. I work with those age 4-90+ to provide diagnostic clarity & outline treatment recommendations. Everyone has personal strengths and personal weaknesses, & we could all use a little help in certain areas. A comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation allows me to identify cognitive strengths & weaknesses and better understand behavioral functioning & emotional functioning to get the widest, clearest picture of the individual as possible.

Hi there! I am a relational and holistic therapist working via telehealth. My clients are generally tired of feeling disconnected from themselves and others. They want to be able to trust themselves and heal from the past. They want hope and empowerment to be free from the trauma and issues that continue to effect their daily life. They want to understand their emotions, rather than their emotions controlling them. I want to help my clients to tap into their inner strength and wisdom and I believe I provide practical tools to achieving these goals.

Change, worry, and upsets are a given. But so is the ability to adjust, heal, create, plan and live more fully. Challenging life experiences can cause us to feel stuck: grief, trauma, unending decision-making, constant fear or worry. We suffer when we are not flowing in heart, head and body. When we carry too much emotional pain, we need to move from isolation to connectedness, gain insight, and find our way.

Deep healing occurs in safe, attuned, and compassionate relationships with ourselves and others. Often our trouble with relationships, anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts and feelings, addictions, performance issues, etc. indicate a need to slow down and tend to the stories and meaning (often implicitly) encoded in our mind, hearts, and bodies. Good therapy is a process of not only alleviating distressing symptoms, but learning to know ourselves and the ways our past shows up in our present, so that we can more deeply flourish in our relationships.

If you are struggling with multiple complex issues and haven't been able to figure out where to start or which end is up, we can work together to figure out how it all connects and what you would like to address . I appreciate the interconnection between physical and mental health issues, relationship struggles and the complications of addictions and habits. At our initial appointment, I will take some basic history, learn more about your current situation and your goals and then introduce the Cognitive Behavior Therapy TEAM model that I utilize to structure treatment.

Hello! Welcome to therapy. I’m Madeleine. If you are seeking therapy, you may be struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, family/relationship issues, or perhaps you just need someone to talk to without fear of being judged. I use a collaborative approach and believe that you are the expert in your own life. We will work together to identify any patterns of behavior that you feel are interfering with your life, discuss the ways your family, environment, and society may be reinforcing these, and develop the skills to alter or cope with these patterns more effectively.

Have you experienced a traumatic event or loss in your past? Some days you may feel as if you have moved on, but the feelings associated with the trauma return when you least expect them. Or perhaps you have been coping with feelings of anxiety or depression and you are wondering if you will ever feel "normal" again. Often people ask me "shouldn't I be over this by now?" It is very common to revisit feelings we had in the past, particularly during periods of transition or difficulty in our lives. But it can certainly make us feel as though we are stuck or even moving backwards in our journey.

Everyone deserves to thrive.

So often the world seems unkind and we can face pain and uncertainty as we move through life. I provide clients a safe and affirming space in which to be witnessed, supported, and challenged to grow. We will move through pain and navigate obstructions that keep you from meeting your goals. My intention is that you gain awareness of what blocks you and through this awareness, you begin to feel empowered and grounded within yourself in a deep and sustainable way.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges, unsure of who to turn to? Many of my clients struggle with anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues that leave them feeling stuck. They often face questions of identity, infertility, or self-esteem, searching for clarity and peace. Navigating the search for a therapist can feel daunting, but my aim is to offer a welcoming space where you can truly be yourself, free from judgment. I work closely with women and teen girls aged 14+, guiding them through these challenges to help them find their path forward.

I believe that everyone has the capacity for growth or change, whether it's easily identifiable or not. Sometimes this change occurs in tiny steps and sometimes it occurs in leaps and bounds. Other times it is difficult to even recognize that growth or change is possible and we may feel stuck, down, scared, confused, or frustrated. Together we will explore what growth or change may look like for you and how it can happen.
