About Maddy

Hi, I’m Madison, but you can call me Maddy! I work with kids, teenagers, and young adults. Clients I work with often struggle with anxiety, feelings of depression, overwhelming thoughts and feelings and a lack of motivation to do the things they once enjoyed. I also work with people who have experienced one or more highly frightening or upsetting events that someone might label as trauma.

Together we can work towards achieving your wellness goals and restoring a sense of hope! I believe therapy should be tailored to what you want - so I try to be flexible to structure our sessions to work best for you! In therapy, my priority is creating a safe and comfortable atmosphere where we can better understand you and what’s been going on.

I am passionate about empowering kiddos, individuals, and families as they face various challenges and concerns. I value therapeutic models that view those I work with as strong and capable with a variety of strengths and skills that will be important as we work together! For example, use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) which believes that our thoughts have a lot of influence on our feelings and behaviours. I also weave in parts of emotion-focused therapy, attachment theory, and solution-focused therapy. I prioritize a trauma-informed approach, as I believe trauma is often woven into individuals’ concerns and working sensitively with our traumas can help us heal and grow.

When working with kids I also use play therapy and lots of games! Therapy is a space to discuss big emotions and sometimes upsetting things, but I do all that I can to make sure our sessions together feel as comfortable, safe, and sometimes even as fun as possible!

When working together I will prioritize and centre our work together based on your values and goals, and for those who seek it, I also offer Christian Informed Therapy!

Thanks for reading through, if you’d like to know more or see if we would be a good fit please book a consultation!
