About Madeline

Madeline Reyes is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 23 years of experience. She draws on long clinical work in community and program settings to offer practical help for people facing hard moments. Her style is calm and straightforward, aimed at parents and families who need clear steps and steady support.

She keeps sessions focused and concrete. That means identifying small, manageable goals and trying methods that show quick benefit.

Background and approach

Madeline uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy to help people change thinking patterns, strengthen motivation, and build workable plans. Parents often come for help with stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, or relationship and family strain. She also works with concerns such as addiction, depression, grief, trauma, ADHD, and self-esteem.

Her approach is practical - she listens, asks focused questions, and suggests strategies to try between sessions. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and she uses several online formats to make care easier to fit into busy lives. Madeline explains options clearly and helps clients choose the format that fits their schedule and comfort level.

Her way of working emphasizes respect and active listening. Madeline aims to make conversations feel safe and useful, so families and individuals can take the next steps they need.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Madeline uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, parenting stress, and habits that make life harder.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help build a person’s own reasons for change. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about steps like reducing substance use or changing routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Madeline will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then recommend methods to try. She adjusts the plan as progress and needs become clear, working collaboratively with clients.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions fit busy days, and live chat or text messaging provide brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options can make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling family, work, and other responsibilities.

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.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.

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.
