Hi there, my name is Madeline. Welcome to my safe and judgement free space to work on bringing peace into your life. I am a Licensed Clinical Master Social Worker in Michigan. I strive to provide compassionate care to those with ranging needs in the overwhelming and discouraging seasons of life. For 8 years I have supported children, adolescents, adults and older adults with individual and family needs in the school, home and community setting. I encourage my clients to focus on critical needs and habits that impact their daily lives, supporting them on their unique journey. I welcome you to utilize a holistic approach designed to nurture your specific needs right where you are.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we will discuss what our expectations of the therapy process are. I ask questions to better understand your unique story and welcome you to ask questions you have. We will further focus on specific challenges and formulate a plan to work through in follow up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My focus is to engage creatively and provide a safe space to feel heard, learn and grow. I provide nurturing, guided support that carries on into many elements of life. I am flexible, open minded and have empathy for every person I encounter.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I naturally enjoy working with everyone. I strive to meet clients where they are and support their needs with creative resources and the latest evidence based practices. From that, my clients are able to relate, reflect and engage what they learn about themselves to further reach their goals.

She really listens to whatever you have to say and gives great feedback or a validation to why you feel a certain way. Will definitely be seeing her again!
