In Madison’s work, she has experienced that positive change occurs best when the therapist is able to create an environment of safety, trust, and acceptance. In this space, the client is able to fully be themselves and begin to navigate their own challenges and difficulties. She utilizes evidenced-based techniques, specifically Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and client-centered approaches to meet the individual needs of each client and their families. She is passionate about working with children through play therapy and enjoys working with parents to help them support their children in the therapeutic process. She also loves working with teens and young adults, utilizing activities and traditional talk therapy methods to create a supportive and trusting therapeutic relationship. Her approach with each client is empathetic, collaborative, and intentional.
