Great to meet you!

Hi there, I’m Madi. I am a relational therapist who focuses on building authentic connections with individuals and families. I believe that through these connections, we create a safe and effective place for healing.

My approach to therapy

Therapy with my practice is integrative and client-centered. This means we will start where you want to start, and I will support you as we navigate your needs and goals! I utilize a wide scope of approaches tailored to my clients needs and preferences, such as DBT, CBT, ERP, internal family systems and attachment theory to address concerns related to but not limited to: anxiety, depression, OCD, life transitions, chronic illness, LGBTQA+ and relational issues. This approach to therapy ensures that a safe space for emotional processing is built and maintained.

What you can expect from me

Above all, I strive to assist you and support you to guide you to accessing your genuine self as you face your life’s challenges, with extensive experience with those in marginalized communities (women, LGBTQA+, neurodivergence and disabilities).

In your first session with me you can expect a warm, affirming and validating experience. My goal is to create a strong alliance with my clients through trust and genuine connection.
