Hi, my name is Maddy! I am a dedicated therapist who quickly learned to love helping clients of all ages/backgrounds feel comfortable in the therapeutic process. As I know therapy can be intimidating, and confusing to some people I pride myself on making my clients feel comfortable every step of the way. I specialize in anxiety, depression, and stress related symptoms through the use of CBT, motivational interviewing and mindfulness techniques as well as many others. I always tell my clients that we work as a team, and learn together as we go.

In our fast-paced world, it can be tempting to just keep scrolling and hope that things will eventually slow down and work out. I believe in helping my clients live their lives with intention and purpose. I will work with you to identify your hopes, goals, and strengths so that every day feels meaningful and your life doesn’t just pass you by. I teach both concrete tools to support my clients in their daily living as well as provide a safe container for clients to explore parts of themselves they want to learn more about.

As a licensed clinical therapist (LCSW-C) with over 15 years of experience, I am dedicated to supporting individuals on their mental health journeys. My career began in diverse settings, including group homes, foster care agencies, nursing facilities, and an adult detention center. Rooted in my Caribbean and Southern heritage, I was raised in a family of 11, instilling in me the values of community and compassion. I understand the unique challenges that arise from backgrounds where personal needs are often placed last, leading to common mental health concerns such as depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem.

I seek to cultivate a collaborative, trusting, and explorative experience to work alongside you on your path to wholeness. My ideal client is ready to address stagnant behavior and unravel complex emotions. I understand that a well-established therapeutic alliance is imperative to successful outcomes. This is crucial in ensuring a safe and supportive environment to be vulnerable, open, and authentic. My training is oriented around Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Attachment-styles, and Psychodynamic approach. I also integrate concepts from other frameworks to best suit your specific needs.

Have you ever felt stuck in a rut and needed someone almost like an accountability partner to help guide you back out of the rut? Or what about misunderstood and unaccepted by the people you're closest to? Anxious about making decisions or initiating tasks? I could keep going, but you get the point. Life throws us curveballs and sometimes having professional support from a mental health therapist can certainly help. Hi, my name is Dotty and I am here to help teens and young adults set goals, then act as their accountability partner to crush them. It's quite a transformative process. Bonus: my dog Biscuit we’ll be there for cuddles!

Undone Counseling is a psychotherapeutic practice serving individuals interested in engaging in an exploration of self in the pursuit of healing and growth. Therapy can often look like an undoing. It might be a mending of past trauma, grief and hurt or an undoing of ideas and systems that no longer serve us. It is a beautiful unraveling of parts of self and an excavation of our history in discovery of who we are and who we will become. My role is to help you process what you are experiencing and find the source of discomfort and areas that may need strengthening and restoration.

Imagine carrying an invisible weight—the weight of feeling unseen, unheard, misunderstood. Perhaps you’re navigating systemic barriers, microaggressions, or struggling to feel fully accepted for who you are. Maybe you feel out of sync in a world that wasn’t built for you, constantly compartmentalizing parts of yourself to fit in. On the outside, you may seem “fine,” but inside, you’re yearning for wholeness, clarity, and the freedom to simply be.
