Through therapy, I help people who seek connection, a deeper connection within themselves and their relationships. Using a “biopsychosocial” approach, I help people explore how past and present experiences shape their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, relationships, and nervous system. With expertise in brain anatomy and neuroscience, I empower people by helping them recognize when and why specialized neural systems are activated, helping them gain self-awareness, prepare a plan of action, and implement change.

Hi, I’m Maddie. Licensed therapist, career counselor, and your very own personal hype-man as you navigate big transitions and changes in your life. As someone with a background in trauma informed care, I know the concept of exploring purpose, navigating transition, and being motivated for change can feel incredibly scary, overwhelming, and outright impossible at times. Together, we will take the necessary steps to guide you through self-reflection, identify clear, tangible goals, and create a plan for your next steps that feel manageable and purposeful. You deserve a life that is ALL the things, but most of all reflective of you.

Do you feel like no one truly understands you? Perhaps you feel alone, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn. Therapy can be the first step toward finding relief and support—a safe space to talk openly, without judgment. I believe everyone can benefit from therapy, and my goal is to create a stress-free environment where you feel comfortable, heard, and supported as we work through life’s challenges together. I work with adults, couples, and adolescents navigating a wide range of concerns, including trauma, grief, life transitions, addictions, and relationship challenges.

You’ve been holding everything together — at work, at home, and in your relationships — but lately it feels like it’s catching up with you. Anxiety, overthinking, irritability, fatigue, and feeling emotionally “off” can make life heavy even when you look like you’re doing fine.

Let’s be real — asking for help isn’t easy, especially when you’ve been taught to “man up,” keep it together, or go it alone. Whether you're feeling stuck, stressed, angry, numb, or just not yourself, I’m here to help you figure things out — without judgment, lectures, or fluff. I specialize in working with men who are navigating pressure, relationships, fatherhood, trauma, identity, anger, or that quiet feeling of not being good enough. You don’t have to have a crisis to come to therapy — sometimes it’s just about not wanting to feel this way anymore.

My ideal client is a millennial or professional who looks successful on the outside but feels stressed, anxious, or stuck on the inside. They may struggle with work-life balance, boundaries, or carrying the weight of expectations. What they need is a safe space that feels less clinical and more like a real conversation. Their goals are to reduce stress, improve confidence and relationships, and find balance. Some also want creative outlets like journaling or music to process emotions and reconnect with themselves.
