I am accepting new clients now!
Hi, I’m Madeline!
At the start of my journey as a social worker, I had the honor of working with a wide range of people and communities- from families experiencing homelessness, domestic violence survivors, and newly arrived refugees. I've witnessed the deep physical and emotional impacts of systemic injustice, natural disasters, lack of basic human necessities, and marginalization.
These experiences sparked a lasting passion in me: to walk alongside others in healing from trauma and cultivating the resilience it calls forth in all of us.
​
I’ve worked with many individuals who feel hypervigilant, stuck, or as though they’re constantly moving with a sense of urgency—patterns that often stem from unresolved trauma. My goal is to help clients slow down, reconnect with themselves, and move toward a greater sense of safety and ease. Together we can find practical tools for self-care and emotional resilience- helping you feel more at home in your life and body.
​
My approach is rooted in empathy, curiosity, and compassion. I believe the most important element of therapy is that you feel seen, safe, and connected. My therapeutic style is integrative and holistic. I draw from CBT, DBT, EMDR, IFS, Somatic and psychodynamic approaches, tailoring each session to your needs and considering the full context of your life.
Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD, life transitions, chronic illness, or menstrual health challenges like Endometriosis, my hope is that you feel welcomed and supported here. Healing is possible, and I’m honored to walk with you on that path.
