Hi, my name is Madelyn. I’m an Associate MFT who offers relational, somatic therapy, and am thrilled to be expanding my practice to work with children through the Child Therapy Institute. I earned my Master’s degree at the California Institute for Integral Studies’ Somatic Psychology Program, and before that, earned my Bachelor’s in the Netherlands in dance & performance. Being a lifelong lover of somatics, movement improvisation, and knowing first-hand the healing power of dance as sacred expression & performance as ritual, these tools enter the therapeutic space, whether in play with children or individual adult counseling. I also draw from a long history of engaging with mindfulness in order to ground the body in the potency of the present moment.
