Madelyne Mayer, MSW

Hi, I'm Maddy! Life is hard, especially these days! If you're feeling lost, confused, sad, worried, or dissatisfied with certain aspects of your life, you've come to the right place. As a therapist, my role is to help you discover the tools you need (and probably already have inside of you) to improve your life and relationships. I offer a calm, non-judgmental space where we can explore both hardships and joys together.

 

My strengths-based approach draws from many acronym'ed therapies including EMDR, CBT, parts work (IFS), DBT, ACT, and motivational interviewing. My work is also influenced by queer theory, Black feminism, disability justice, and taoism. Overall, my priority is our therapeutic relationship with each other. Only you know what path is right for your life, and I'm here to support you as we navigate the road together!

 

I work with adults, teens, relationships, and families. Some topics I enjoy working with include anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, grief and loss, LGBTQ+ concerns (including gender, sexuality, ethical non-monogamy, and polyamory), kink and BDSM, religious struggles, life transitions, self-esteem, and relationship issues.

 

I attended undergrad at Dartmouth College and received my Master of Social Work from the University of Michigan in 2023. Prior to entering the field of therapy, I worked as a teacher and wedding cake baker/decorator in New Orleans, LA. Outside of work, I enjoy baking hamantaschen, watching movies, attending a book club, and spending time with my friends, family, and cats.

 

If you think we might be a good fit for therapy, please feel free to reach out!
