About Maddison

She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Maddison creates space for clients to talk through what matters most. Conversations focus on small steps and clear tools that can be used between sessions.

Background and approach

She believes taking the first step toward change takes courage and supports that process. Maddison uses proven methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to help people stay present and reduce overwhelm.

Solution-Focused Therapy guides the work toward concrete goals and quick strategies. Her approach is collaborative. Maddison listens, then helps craft simple plans tailored to each person’s situation.

She aims for sessions that feel useful and doable, not full of jargon. Progress is measured by whether daily life gets easier. Maddison has six years of professional experience as a Licensed Master Social Worker - LMSW.

Her background includes working with pregnancy and childbirth issues, postpartum depression, autism and Asperger Syndrome, women’s concerns, workplace stress, family problems, and young adult issues. She offers a range of online session formats to fit different schedules.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Online sessions use guided conversations and simple exercises to tackle anxiety, low mood, and stress in day-to-day life.

Mindfulness Therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and gentle attention to feelings and sensations. In an online session this can look like short breathing exercises, grounding practices, and learning to step back from strong emotions.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying small, practical steps toward a preferred future. Online work with this approach emphasizes goal-setting and quick strategies clients can try between meetings to create visible change.

Maddison approaches choice of method as a team effort. She will talk with clients about their concerns, goals, and preferences, then suggest approaches that seem likely to help. Together they adjust methods as progress is made or needs shift.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allow flexibility around work, family, and caregiving schedules. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum with shorter check-ins or longer conversations when needed.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
