About Madison
Madison Marcotte Lippert helps people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about their next step. She is Madison, a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of practice in both Ohio and Minnesota. She uses straightforward language and a team mindset to help people find practical ways forward.
Madison combines several evidence-based methods to match each person's needs. She leans on cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thinking and ACT to clarify values and build committed action.
How Madison works
Attachment-based ideas and emotionally focused techniques are available when the work benefits from attention to connection and relationship patterns. Her background includes work in schools, medical settings, and independent practice. That variety shaped a flexible style that fits short problem-focused work or longer-term personal growth.
She draws on life experience from competitive college athletics to encourage resilience and steady effort. Madison often helps with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship concerns, and challenges with sleep or eating. She also supports people navigating parenting strain, caregiver stress, career changes, and questions about identity, including LGBT concerns.
Attention to attachment, communication, forgiveness, and life purpose is part of the way she frames problems. Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented. Madison and the person she sees set clear aims, notice strengths, and try practical steps between meetings.
The overall tone is warm, direct, and focused on helping people live more consistently with what matters to them.

Online support options
Approaches for online healing and connection
Madison uses practical approaches that translate well to remote sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, helps people clarify their values and take small committed steps toward a meaningful life even when difficult feelings remain. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of connection from early relationships and helps people build more supported ways of relating, which can ease relationship and intimacy struggles.Choosing an approach is a team effort. Madison will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Together they try methods that fit the person's life and adjust the plan as needed so the work stays useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to stay connected between sessions. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or school commitments while keeping the focus on clear goals and steady progress.
