Maddi is a compassionate therapist who helps clients reconnect with their bodies, relationships, and inner selves. Through somatic, or body-based, healing, she supports clients in restoring a sense of safety and ease within their nervous systemsβoften helping to reduce chronic symptoms like IBS, headaches, or pain linked to unresolved trauma. Together, she and her clients work to release long-held embodied patterns and build greater emotional resilience.
Rooted in an attachment-based and culturally responsive lens, Maddi believes that healing happens through connection. She understands how relational trauma and attachment wounds can leave people feeling stuck, mistrustful, or unsure how to connect. Maddi helps clients rebuild trust in themselves and others, and develop healthier, more secure patterns of relating.
She is especially passionate about supporting neurodivergent individualsβincluding those who identify as Autistic, ADHD, or highly sensitiveβoffering affirming, sensory-aware therapy that honors each clientβs unique nervous system and identity. Maddi also works with couples and partners seeking to deepen emotional intimacy, navigate conflict, and build stronger, more compassionate relationships. Her relationship work is inclusive of neurodivergent and culturally diverse partnerships, as well as couples impacted by trauma.
A key aspect of Maddiβs work is her commitment to decolonized and culturally attuned care. She has specialized training in healing cultural, racial, and intergenerational trauma, and creates space for clients to feel seen in the full complexity of their identities and lived experiences. She openly acknowledges the impact of systemic oppression on mental health and centers client autonomy in every step of the therapeutic process.
Maddi brings warmth, authenticity, humor, and deep care to her sessions. She honors the creative ways clients have adapted to survive and sees these patterns not as problems, but as powerful starting points for transformation. Whether you're working through trauma, seeking deeper connection, or hoping to feel more at home in your body, Maddi is honored to support you.
Outside of therapy, Maddi finds joy in cozy cooking, time with her pets, and slow moments with loved ones. She also understands the unique challenges of military and expat life, and brings that insight to her work with clients navigating big transitions.
Maddi is a trauma-informed, relational, and somatic therapist who specializes in helping individuals and partners heal from complex trauma, attachment wounds, and the lingering effects of chronic stress or relational harm. Maddiβs work often focuses on helping clients reconnect with themselves and others in more authentic, grounded, and empowered ways.
Whether you are navigating painful patterns like people-pleasing, emotional numbing, self-criticism, persistent anxiety, relationship stress, or substance use, Maddi offers a space for transformation and relief. Her work is grounded in addressing the root causes of suffering rather than simply managing symptomsβ guiding clients toward lasting change and emotional freedom.
Maddi is a Certified Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapist through the EMDR International Association and utilizes this modality to help clients reprocess trauma, shift limiting beliefs, and restore connection to the body and present moment. She is experienced in treating complex trauma, recent traumatic events, childhood and attachment trauma, persistent anxiety and depression, chronic patterns of emotional dysregulation, substance use, and phobias. Maddi tailors this internationally recognized, evidence-based therapy to meet each clientβs nervous system capacity, using specialized techniques to ensure the work remains tolerable, effective, and empowering. She often integrates EMDR with complementary approaches such as mindfulness-based interventions, somatic therapy, attachment-focused therapy, and solution-focused strategies to create a personalized and holistic therapy experience.
