.  

Hi, I’m Maddie. I am originally from Chicago, IL where I practiced social work in foster care agencies, schools, crisis intervention centers, community mental health, and specialized hospitals.

 

I specialize in working with individuals who are navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, chronic pain, and adjustment issues. Life can bring unexpected challenges, and sometimes it feels like the weight of it all is too much to bear. My goal is to help you not only survive these struggles, but to thrive, by addressing the root causes of what’s been holding you back.

 

I integrate trauma-informed therapies like EMDR, somatic therapy, and parts work to help you process past experiences and reconnect with your body in ways that feel safe and empowering. I also incorporate tools from polyvagal theory, TF-CBT, and DBT to help you develop new ways of coping, regulate your emotions, and build a sense of stability in your life.

 

Change takes time, and healing isn’t linear. My job is to walk alongside you, offering support, understanding, and guidance as you find your way forward.

 

 

During my free time, you can find me on the trail or at the coast with my dog, Phil Dunphey. The PNW is our favorite outdoor playground!
