About Madeleine
Madeleine McConnell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and social anxiety and phobia among other concerns. She also supports people dealing with sleep problems, parenting strains, workplace issues, and chronic pain or illness.
Her style centers on listening and building on a person's existing strengths. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps rather than jargon. Madeleine uses client-centered therapy and integrates EMDR where appropriate to address traumatic memories and distressing symptoms.
She has background in leadership, coaching, and clinical supervision and has provided consulting to individuals and organizations. That experience informs how she helps people set realistic goals and make practical changes in daily life. Madeleine also draws on solution-focused techniques to help identify small, achievable actions.
People meet to talk through current problems, set short-term goals, and practice new ways of responding. For trauma-related concerns she may use eye movement desensitization and reprocessing alongside talking work. For anxiety and stress the emphasis is on reducing interference with everyday activities and improving coping skills.

Approaches used and how online sessions can help
Madeleine uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening to a person's concerns and helping them set clear, practical goals. This approach is about supporting the person's choices and working from their strengths to solve day-to-day problems.She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma-related symptoms. EMDR combines focused attention on distressing memories with guided bilateral stimulation to reduce the intensity of those memories and the reactions they trigger.
Finding the right method is part of the work together. Madeleine will discuss your history, goals, and preferences and suggest which approaches to try. That selection is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier, for example by removing travel time or allowing a check-in during a work break. Different online formats have different practical benefits - shorter phone check-ins can fit into tight schedules, while video sessions can allow more visual interaction. This profile does not list specific session formats here, so confirm available options before booking.
