Are you curious about gender expression? Feeling femme? Supporting a family member as they transition? Maybe you enjoy cross dressing and feel both exhilarated and scared? Are you considering, or have you started to transition? Have you turned to substances or other behaviors to self-medicate? Are you struggling to establish your life and find safe community? Are you wondering how to better accept and/or comfort a loved one as they are exploring gender and/or sexuality?
I'm Maddie. I'm a trans woman (femme), middle-aged, parent, and person in recovery. I walk alongside you, using you-centered and gender affirming stances. I bring extensive skill from my lived background substance use history, and mental health career. I provide therapy for individuals, families, relationships (including poly, ENM, kink).
Empathy and attunement are core to my work. I'll both support and challenge you in therapy. I use integrative approaches, including DBT, Narrative Therapy, Liberatory CBT, Jungian, Gestalt, Experiential, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness, and Family Systems.
