About Madison
The effects of trauma show up most clearly in our closest relationships. I support men, women, and couples navigating the lasting impacts of trauma and the ways those experiences shape their relationships, sense of self, and emotional lives.
My background includes extensive work with survivors of domestic violence, which informs my relational, curious, and compassionate approach to therapy. I am especially passionate about working with men affected by cultural expectations around masculinity and emotional expression, and as a woman I bring a unique perspective to those conversations.
Drawing from psychoanalytic, emotionally-focused, and EMDR approaches, I collaborate closely with my clients to explore their histories, strengthen their relationships, and create lasting, meaningful change.

Sliding scale options may be available (not available for psychoanalytic treatment). Please contact me to explore whether a reduced fee is a fit for your circumstances.
While I am no longer accepting insurance, I can provide a superbill for out-of-network mental health benefits. This would allow for 60-100% session fee reimbursement once your insurance deductible has been met.
