Hi, I’m Maddie.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in life transitions, trauma counseling, and career counseling.
At my core, I value harmony, sincerity, authenticity, humor, and love.
These values shape both who I am and how I approach therapy. My goal is to create a space that feels safe, comforting, down-to-earth, and collaborative — a place where you feel seen and heard without judgment.
Whether you’re navigating a major life transition, processing trauma, or searching for a renewed sense of purpose, I’m here to walk alongside you. Together, we’ll uncover your inner strengths, set clear goals, and build a path forward that feels true to you.
My practice is built upon:
Narrative
Therapy
Understanding and reauthoring your story and past experiences
Acceptance +
Commitment Therapy
Using values-based decision making to drive change and increase self-awareness and acceptance
Contemporary Psychoanalysis
Understanding how relationships shape the way you see yourself and interact with the world
Solution-Focused Therapy
A process that is goal-focused and strengths-based
This is the boring part, but it’s important you know that I am qualified to be your therapist.
I received my Master of Science (MS) in Community and Trauma Counseling from Thomas Jefferson University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oregon and Washington, DC.
I have a graduate certificate in Counseling and Life Transitions from George Washington University, and I completed a year-long fellowship at the Institute of Contemporary Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis (ICP+P). I have been trained in various advanced trauma interventions.
I was certified as a Career Development Facilitator (CCDF) in 2019, and have honed my skills in career counseling for 4+ years at Georgetown University, focusing on undergraduate career exploration and teaching professional development skills in the Georgetown Pivot Program.
I specialize in young adult populations, working the majority of my career with college students, recent graduates, and folks in early adulthood.
Lastly, as a former NCAA Division I athlete, ex-professional soccer player, and youth coach, I know firsthand the unique pressures that come with competing at a high level. With years of experience working with elite athletes, I currently serve as the sole mental health provider for Portland State Athletics and have worked with athletes across various universities and club programs.
