Maddie Sansom

Life is rarely ever simple and easy. We are complex human beings with complicated life circumstances and emotions that can sometimes be too much to carry on our own. You may be facing anxiety, relationship stress, confusion, sorrow, stressful life transitions or maybe you are carrying the burden of trauma and abuse on your shoulders. Perhaps you are wondering how you got here and don’t know where to start towards healing. You are not alone and there is hope for you. You are so much more than a situation or feeling. Amidst the heartache and the burdens, joy and peace can be found.

I believe in the importance of listening to people’s stories and I believe in the power of presence. I am passionate about walking alongside others as they pursue transformation and wellness. I have been the person dominated by feelings of loneliness and anxiety, and I have found myself thrown into the deep end of stressful life changes. I look back on those times and wish I would have had someone to process such things alongside. How freeing it is to share with someone about what is weighing on your life; to find peace. I am coming into the counseling room wanting to understand and learn from you. I believe that hearts can change and people can grow. This is why I so strongly believe in the counseling journey, and the power it holds.

Beginning counseling can sometimes be a difficult choice to make and taking care of our mental health can seem daunting. Together, we will work to build a trusting, supportive, and nonjudgmental relationship. You are the expert of your own life and I want to meet you wherever you are in your journey. As we work towards bringing change, we will identify your goals and explore thoughts, feelings, history, and circumstances that have made an impact on your life. In our work, my hope is that you feel understood, heard and cared for. I value empathy and authenticity in the counseling room and hope that we get the privilege of working together in your pursuit of wellness.

The hardest part towards healing can often feel like making that first step. Don’t hesitate to get started today and call our office to schedule an appointment with me. I look forward to meeting you!
