Life has so many moving parts, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.
Add in chronic illness, disability, neurodivergence, systemic oppression, or a trauma history, and it might just start to feel impossible.
It’s hard to keep moving forward when you feel like you can never catch up.
You want to feel connected and happy, but…
You’re overwhelmed with the demands of everyday life and the needs of the people around you.
The things that used to work for you don’t work anymore.
You know you want change, but that change feels unsafe or out of reach.
It’s time to stop putting everyone else ahead of yourself—but you don’t know where to start.
Ready to start building a life that feels good?
Hi, I’m Maddie. I want to help you get more out of life.
As a disabled/chronically ill, neurodivergent queer person myself, I know how hard it is to care for yourself when it feels like you spend all your energy just surviving. I’ve been there. Some days, I’m still there.
Therapy can be a place to learn new ways of interacting with the world—and with yourself—that result in a more joyful existence, more fulfilling relationships, and more compassion for your body and mind, even on the hard days.
For an idea of what this might look like for you, take a look at my services page or schedule a consultation. I can’t wait to hear from you!
About Maddie
I am a white, queer person who uses she/her pronouns. I identify as neurodivergent, chronically ill, and disabled. In my free time, I enjoy crafting and taking care of my houseplants. I have a dog named Honey who is my co-therapist for Telehealth sessions.
I am passionate about working with clients looking to embrace their full selves despite the forces – internal, interpersonal, and systemic – that are working against them. My goal as a therapist is always to honor my clients’ autonomy, and to work with my clients to foster an environment of collaboration, non-judgment, and joyful exploration.
My values are present in all the work I do with clients:
I ground my work in anti-racist, disability justice, decolonial, and feminist frameworks.
I believe that my clients are the experts on their own experience, which means I honor self-diagnosis and lived experience.
If you are interested in working with me, or want to learn more, contact me to schedule a consultation!
