With humor and compassion, I can guide you in strengthening your confidence and identity as a parent and a partner.

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.

I work with clients who need support managing ADHD, depression, and/or anxiety.

My clients may want time to heal and grow towards what goals they have or who they want to become.

I offer telehealth Mental Health Counseling Services. If you have the internet and a computer or smart phone, we can have video sessions. Perhaps you are feeling that you need to start seeing a counselor, but have had barriers such as: you live in a rural area, have transportation issues, childcare problems, a chronic illness, time constraints, etc. I offer traditional counseling services, but from the comfort of your home or other safe space. Sometimes just getting to a counseling office can be difficult: and I am looking forward to bringing my counseling services to you.

Going through rough transitions in life such as dealing with a disability, loss of someone, family conflict, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, or identity issues can take a toll on your mind, body, and spirit. It is extremely challenging to have to deal with all these emotions with nobody to vent to and explore positive ways to deal with these issues. My ideal client is someone who understands and desires a better outlook on life and a better perspective of themselves. Even though you may be going through adjustment to new challenges that create stress, anxiety, or depression, there is always hope.

I have worked with tens of thousands of clients with issues ranging from trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, communication, parenting, work frustrations, suicidality, sudden life change, and more. My goal is for you to experience peace in your life, stop merely coping, and start thriving in the present. I believe in the importance of living in this moment that we’ve been given, and I want you to experience the abundant joy and freedom that comes from God. Don’t wait another day; invest in yourself today. I look forward to working with you to overcome past barriers so you can fully enjoy your life each moment.
