Perhaps you find yourself experiencing a shift in identity, separating from a loved one, welcoming new members into your family, or experiencing grief and loss. I may be able to help.

I am proud of you for taking this step to search for a therapist. Often times the hardest part is getting started and finding a professional who meets your needs and someone who you feel you can be comfortable with.

My biggest goal is to create a comfortable space, offer you techniques and skills to build on, and work together to challenge beliefs, patterns, and thoughts.

Hey hey! My name is Madison and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate in the State of NC. I received my Bachelor of Science in Human Development and Family Studies from UNC - Greensboro and my Master in Social Work from North Carolina Central University. I have a passion to work with adolescents and young adults, who aspire to be seen, heard, and ready to do the work towards a better self. As a previous teenager and as a young adult, I empathize with so many lived experiences that take place during these stages of development.

Traditional talk therapy has limited benefits. Insight alone is not sufficient to generate change. Lasting change comes from addressing core beliefs which originate in childhood, and lead to habitual (and generally unconscious) ways of perceiving ourselves and the outside world. Thus 'our lives run us' rather than 'we run our lives'. Western culture tends to draw us away from ourselves to the outer world of materialism, competition and achievement. Mindfulness helps us to turn inward, attuning with the body, leading to the discovery of core beliefs that impede our ability to make healthy choices.

I provide therapy to adolescents and adults, using a client-centered, eclectic approach tailored to the unique needs of each client. My preferred treatment approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy, supportive therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy.

My areas of expertise include: anxiety, depression, teens with self-injurious behaviors/behavior issues, phase of life changes and life stresses.

I work with a generation of achievers. From a young age, you're taught to shoot for excellence in academia and extracurricular activities; you have to work twice as hard to get half as far, right? This high-pressure environment didn’t stop when you reached adulthood. You have worked hard to obtain the career, licenses, and status that you want; but it can feel empty at times. There is a race against the social clock that feels like it can’t be won, constant comparisons through social media, and anxiety to maintain the mask of happiness hiding burnout in your personal and professional life.
