Hello, I'm Maddie. I feel grateful to support individuals, partners, and families on their growth journeys. I work with clients to create a space where they can feel comfortable to reflect, cry, laugh, think – be authentically themselves. I have worked extensively with adolescents and adults facing anxiety and depression, negative body image and eating disorders, substance use, and other co-occurring struggles. I am passionate about guiding clients through trauma, loss, and grief - because no one should have to navigate it alone.
