About Maddie
Hi, I’m Maddie! I know the idea of therapy can be scary, but I believe it should feel like a safe, welcoming space where you can show up as you are. I create a genuine connection with all my clients to foster the relationship.
I have experience working with a variety of populations but I especially enjoy working with children and families. I have a particular interest in supporting children and adults living with chronic illnesses and helping them navigate the emotional and everyday challenges that can come with life. I also have proficiency working with children of divorce and supporting the children and families involved in the family court system.
Throughout my experience, I have worked with clients navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, BPD, and more. I hope we can work together and create positive momentum towards your future!
