Madison Schiller is a person-centered therapist who believes everyone has the power to create change and foster mental health and wellness in their lives. Madison understands that diving into therapy for the first time, or continuing work with a new therapist can be challenging and uncertain. That’s why Madison believes collaboration is one the most important parts of the therapy experience.
Madison primarily works with adults and couples, focusing on a variety of concerns – life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, self-esteem, relationship issues, and career/vocational concerns. Additionally, Madison is passionate about working with intercultural couples and women in the areas of perinatal mental health and reproductive justice.
In her therapy practice, Madison strives to create an environment of warmth, compassion, safety, and empathic understanding.
Her practice is based in cultural humility and trauma-informed care. She is strengths-based clinician, focusing on resilience and opportunities for growth. Madison’s approach to therapy is integrative, utilizing techniques such as narrative therapy, mindfulness, CBT, and mind-body connection. She is committed to learning and integrating new, modern techniques that may be helpful for your therapy experience.
