Madeline Sullenberger brings 15 years of experience working with children and families. She specializes in working with children aged 0-12 who are experiencing behavior problems, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, OCD, ADHD/executive function challenges, depression, grief and loss, poor self-concept, identity confusion, gender issues, school refusal, educational issues, PTSD/trauma, and social issues. She is adept at providing parents with the guidance and support needed for them to be able to facilitate their child’s growth and healing.
Madeline adheres to developmentally appropriate practices such as play therapy, art, activity, or child-centered talk therapy as well as age-appropriate dialectical behavioral therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy. In addition to working with the child, she provides parental psychoeducation, parent coaching, and child guidance education to the parents/caregiver.
Madeline works to develop a strong rapport with each family while working on individualized treatment plans from a child-centered, highly compassionate approach where clients are fully seen, heard, and treated with the highest regard. This approach often facilitates an increased ease and comfort with the therapy experience.
