Couples & relationship therapy
I'm Madison — a couples and relationship therapist. I work with people untangling dating, situationships, communication, and the relationship they have with themselves.

01 — What I work with
Most of what I see sits somewhere between "is this normal?" and "I don't know how to say this out loud." Both are good places to start.
The same argument on a loop, resentment that's gone quiet, intimacy that's drifted, or a decision the two of you keep circling without landing.
Why it's so hard to end something that was never officially anything — and how to date without abandoning your standards or yourself.
Saying the true thing without it turning into a fight. Repair after it does. Asking for what you need before resentment asks for you.
The over-thinking, the waiting for a text, the certainty that something's wrong — and the patterns underneath all of it.
Grieving a relationship honestly, and dating again afterwards without carrying the whole last one into the first coffee.
Self-worth, people-pleasing, and actually romanticising your own life rather than waiting for someone else to do it for you.
02 — About
I'm a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and a Registered Associate Professional Clinical Counselor, working under clinical supervision — which means every case I hold is reviewed with experienced clinicians behind it.
Outside the therapy room, I make mental health content about relationships: the hills I'll die on as a couples therapist, the things I do to take care of my own mental health, and the questions people are too embarrassed to ask anyone else.
03 — Credentials
Associate registration means I'm a fully qualified therapist accruing the supervised hours required for independent licensure.
