Meet Madeline

Together, we will explore self-regulation, healthy boundaries, and ways of being that nurture you. Pain and loss are a part of life. I will help you make meaning in the face of suffering and move toward healing and growth. We all get stuck in overwhelming emotions, unwanted behaviors, and difficult relationship patterns. I will help you develop greater awareness of the parts of yourself that take over when you feel overwhelmed, while cultivating deeper self-understanding, self-compassion, and the ability to support and ground yourself. My goal is that you will feel more resilient, even in the presence of distress.

Pain and loss are a part of life and my work gives you a space to share and process your story.
