psychotherapy for lasting change

I offer relational therapy with a psychoanalytic lens to help you understand patterns, shift relationships, and find freedom as an individual or in a couple.

Couples Therapy

Rewrite the story of your relationship. Together, we will dive beneath the surface to uncover the hidden dynamics that shape how you connect.

​

If you’re curious about how uncovering those deeper layers can lead to a stronger, more authentic bond, let’s start the conversation that could transform your relationship.

I have expertise in conflict, life transitions, commitment issues, infidelity, and infertility.

​

​

Individual Therapy

Break free from negative patterns that are holding you back. I use a relational and psychoanalytic approach to create a safe and supportive environment where you can explore yourself and find real insight that leads to lasting change.

My specialties include anxiety, eating disorders, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm.

Hi, I'm Madeleine

I am a psychoanalytically informed therapist with a passion for helping couples and individuals find balance, stability, and fullness in their lives. 

 

Powerful emotions, inner and outer conflicts, and relationship issues can be an invitation to explore your experiences more deeply.

 

As we explore your relationships, worries, fears, hopes, and dreams, we will find clues that lead to the source of unresolved problems and a path to wellness. When we find the source, we can heal.
