Madeline Robertson

Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a specialization in trauma. I have spent most of my professional time working with children and adolescents so I know the vast childhood experiences anyone coming into therapy may bring.

I find it an immense privilege to be a trauma therapist and work with my clients on the hardest topics they may have experienced. I want you to find safety in our relationship to explore what has happened to you and who you want to become from that experience. I am trained in EMDR, an evidence -based treatment for trauma and love bringing in creative ways for my clients to experience the healing that can come through EMDR. I want you to feel that each hour we bring is your own and your goals for therapy are always at the forefront of my mind and work.

When I am not working as a therapist, I enjoy a variety of creative activities including cooking, baking, and crochet. I also love spending time outdoors or swimming to recharge and reset myself for my next day of therapy.

My approach to therapy changes with every client because at the very foundation, therapy needs to be client centered. I have had clients find success using an experiential model like EMDR and have had other clients find more change using a cognitive based approach. Our brains are all wired differently, and therapy should reflect that. In our intake session, our discussion will include what you are looking for in therapy, whether it is more emotions focused or more thinking focused.

Our first session with be mostly getting to know you, especially your goals for therapy. I'll ask a lot of questions, which will be different than our following sessions because this helps me get a good idea of everything you bring to therapy. I will answer any questions you have, especially if this is your first time in therapy. I want your first session to leave you feeling safe and excited for the next one! If you are ready to book a consultation call, my platform will ask you to make a profile. This helps keeps your information secure. If you prefer, you may also email me at [email protected] with your preferred time. I look forward to working with you!
