Great to meet you!

Madeline is a mental health clinician and Registered Art Therapist with over a decade of experience supporting clients across the lifespan. She specializes in anxiety, depression, trauma, and relational stress, offering an approach that is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. Her work integrates EMDR, somatic and neurobiologically-informed practices, and expressive therapies to support emotional healing and nervous system regulation. Clients often describe working with her as grounding, gently challenging, and deeply attuned.

My approach to therapy

My style is warm, relational, and deeply attuned. I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. I’m open-minded and collaborative, and I value meeting each person where they are while gently supporting growth and change.

What you can expect from me

The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin building a sense of safety and trust. I’ll invite you to share what brings you to therapy at your own pace, while offering space to explore personal, relational, and historical factors that may be contributing to your concerns. You can expect a collaborative, grounded conversation focused on understanding you.
