Hi I’m Madeline, founder of Sonder Peninsula Psychology.
I take a compassionate and down-to-earth approach to therapy, grounded in evidence-based practice. My work is shaped by years of supporting people across all stages of life, cultural backgrounds and creating an LGBTQIA+ and neuroaffirming space. I value offering practical, thoughtful and collaborative care that meets people where they’re at.
I welcome clients across the lifespan who are seeking support with the following:
Low mood and depression
Anxiety, panic and specific phobias
Challenges in personal relationships
Neurodiversity
Trauma and adverse childhood experiences
Parenting support and family dynamics
Challenges in school (Social, performance and behavioural)
Life transitions, burnout and adjustment difficulties
Adolescent and adult ADHD assessments
Each of us are a unique part of something much bigger. Our identities, relationships, struggles, and opportunities are all shaped by the systems and environments we move through. Together, in therapy we explore how these layers connect and impact how we see ourselves and the world around us. I draw on a variety of interventions tailored for individuals including: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance Committment Therapy, Schema Therapy and Family Systems Therapy.
