About Me
My background is rooted in physical fitness, competitive athletics and the field of Sport & Performance Psychology. I earned a PhD in Sport & Exercise Psychology from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and worked with competitive teams and athletes in the Mental Training Facility there. After dabbling in yoga and becoming a certified yoga instructor (ERYT-200) the mind body connection became more and more foundational to my teaching and my life. My interest in positive psychology and performance trickled into a passion for mental health (specializing in stress, anxiety, depression and trauma/PTSD). I returned to school while teaching at a private Christian University full time to get a second Masters degree in Counseling and Human Development to become an LPC. As I currently work with clients on an individual basis, hold workshops and seminars and use yoga, breathwork and mindfulness to improve lives and relationships I know I have found my true calling. Working in private practice the last three years I have helped couples, families, individuals and groups dealing with a wide range of issues from binge eating, abuse, trauma to navigating basic life transitions. I use a combinations of CBT, mind-body techniques/mindfulness and talk therapy with a person-centered approach. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health that includes physical, spiritual and emotional support.

Reviews
She is very nice to talk to and very approachable.
Very professional, kind and caring.
Dr. Madeson has been so beyond amazing and helps me become better each and every day. I am truly blessed to get to work with her as a counselor!
Dr. Madeson is an empathetic listener and a creative problem solver. She took the time to learn about me as a whole and uses that information to help. She remembers ongoing issues and brings things full circle by incorporating past issues we have resolved to provide context on current ones.
Dr. Madeson is very kind, patient, and understanding. She responds in a timely manner and is very direct. She listens to your concerns and addresses them by giving you effective methods to mitigate your struggles. Madeson has helped me gain control over my thoughts and emotions that have been preventing me from enjoying my life. I would highly recommend!
Dr. Madeson has always been beyond helpful in dealing with my depression and anxiety. She is an exceptional listener and helps me in ways more than she knows. She responds very quickly whenever I feel low and is just a message away. She is so genuine and compassionate towards my feelings! Thank you! ❤️
