How Madeleine’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the client. The therapist follows the client’s lead, helps clarify goals, and supports choices that feel realistic and meaningful. This approach can help with stress, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and life transitions.Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is used for processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional impact. In practice it involves recalling distressing material while using guided bilateral stimulation and follow-up processing to reduce intensity and help new, healthier beliefs take root.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Madeleine will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try and how to pace treatment. The plan can change over time as needs evolve.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life - fewer commutes, quicker check-ins during a work break, or the option for sessions when travel is difficult. Ask about current session options to find what fits daily routines and technology needs.
