About Madeleine
Madeleine McConnell uses a client-centered approach to help people through stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, and life transitions. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan with 12 years of experience. Madeleine speaks English and accepts international clients for remote work.
She focuses on practical steps people can take right away. Sessions often start by identifying strengths and goals. From there she and the client try out strategies that fit daily life, such as coping techniques for anxiety or plans for managing addictive behaviors. <brMadeleine also brings experience working with trauma and post-traumatic stress.
How Madeleine works
She uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) when appropriate to address traumatic memories alongside client-centered conversation. This combination aims to reduce symptoms and restore a sense of control. Her background includes leadership and organizational consulting, which informs how she supports workplace and career concerns.
She can help people who face workplace stress, communication problems, or career changes by turning broad problems into actionable steps. Parents and caregivers will find a focus on practical parenting supports, sleep and self-esteem work, and ways to cope with compassion fatigue. Madeleine blends coaching-style guidance with therapeutic listening to help clients move toward daily routines that feel manageable.
New clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. Therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging under a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and strengths. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people clarify what matters to them. This approach is useful for stress, life changes, self-esteem, relationship concerns, and career planning.Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method used to process distressing memories. It pairs guided attention with conversation to reduce the emotional impact of traumatic events. EMDR can help with trauma, post-traumatic stress, and intense anxiety when a person and therapist decide it is a good fit.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and preferences. Together they choose whether to focus on client-centered work, add EMDR for trauma processing, or combine methods to match changing needs.
Online therapy makes scheduling and participation more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit short check-ins or ongoing support. These options help people fit therapy into busy days, continue care while traveling, or choose the format that feels most comfortable.
