About Madeleine

Madeleine McConnell draws on a client-centered approach to create a collaborative, strength-based space where clients can explore goals and make practical changes.

Background and approach

With 12 years of clinical experience as an LPC in Michigan, she combines supportive listening with structured strategies to address stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma-related concerns, and ADHD among many other areas. Her style emphasizes identifying existing strengths and leveraging them to pursue meaningful progress.

She also uses EMDR when trauma or deeply held patterns are part of a person's experience, integrating that work with coaching and solution-focused techniques when appropriate. Madeleine has supported people facing addictions, bipolar disorder, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting challenges, chronic pain and illness, workplace concerns, and compassion fatigue.

She offers a warm, supportive presence while helping clients outline treatment goals and select approaches that fit their needs and preferences.

Online care using client-centered work and EMDR



Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and experiences, with the therapist offering empathic listening and collaborative planning to help clients clarify priorities and build on personal strengths. This approach is well suited to concerns like anxiety, depression, stress, relationship struggles, and life transitions because it emphasizes the client's perspective and agency.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapeutic method used when past traumatic memories or distressing experiences continue to affect daily functioning. EMDR sessions involve guided processing techniques that can reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and associated symptoms, and may be integrated when trauma or post-traumatic stress is part of the presenting concern.

Finding the right method is part of the work together; the therapist will collaborate with each person to determine whether client-centered techniques, EMDR, or a mix of approaches best aligns with their needs, goals, and preferences. This decision is revisited as progress is made so care remains responsive and individualized.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer practical flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or mobility limits. These formats make it easier to attend regularly, maintain continuity of care, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
