Hi, I’m Madison–a qualified integrative counsellor offering a warm, supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace.

As an integrative counsellor, I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches to tailor our work to your unique needs. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all model- every person is different, and therapy should reflect that. Whether you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or want space to understand yourself better, our work will be shaped around what feels right for you.

My core training is in person-centred counselling, which places the therapeutic relationship at the heart of the process. I offer a non-judgmental, empathetic space where you can feel truly heard and accepted. I believe that when we feel safe to be ourselves, real healing and growth can begin.

I work online, offering flexible, accessible sessions from the comfort of your own space. If you’re considering counselling and want to know more, I’d be glad to answer any questions or have an initial chat to see if we’re a good fit.

Beyond The Surface

Counselling for Skin Conditions

Are you, or someone you know, struggling with a skin condition?

I know that living with a skin condition can be about so much more than what other people see.

It can be waking up and wondering what your skin will look and feel like that day. It can be choosing your clothes around your skin, avoiding the camera, feeling uncomfortable being seen, or thinking twice before making plans because you just don’t feel like yourself.

It can be exhausting having to explain it. And sometimes, even when people mean well, they just don’t understand how much it can affect you.

If you know that feeling, you’re not alone.

I created Beyond the Surface as a space of compassion, care and understanding - somewhere you can talk about the emotional side of living with a skin condition and feel genuinely heard.

You don’t have to make it sound better than it feels. You don’t have to explain why something is affecting you. You can simply come as you are.

Because I believe there should be space to talk about you as a whole- the thoughts, feelings, experiences and everything else that can sit beyond the surface.

If this feels like something you need, I’d love to hear from you.
Whether you’re ready to talk or simply want to find out a little more, you can get in touch for a warm, no-pressure conversation about how counselling could support you. Reach out to schedule a free initial call to explore how i can support you further.

  • Client Feedback

    “My experience with Madison was incredibly insightful and allowed me to explore my thoughts and feelings in a comfortable and nurturing environment.

    I never felt judged and I always felt encouraged to identify feelings that I had perhaps struggled identifying on my own. I felt supported by Madison from start to finish during every session.

    Madison's calm energy made me feel instantly at ease, and I felt a sense of achievement at the end of my sessions with her.

    If I hadn't have had any sessions with Madison, I wouldn't have had such a breakthrough on an emotional/mental level, especially in regards to my approach to relationships with others”

  • Client Feedback

    ‘Thank you so much for all your help. You’ve really helped me make sense of everything in my mind’

  • Client Feedback

    ‘I am so grateful to have found Madison. I have a history of trauma and experiences of discrimination in relation to my eczema. I've had prior therapy that has been quite harmful as the therapists brought an ableist lens to therapy which I found re-traumatising. Madison was different, advertising herself as someone who has a deeper understanding due to lived experience. Moreover she prioritisies your journey and understanding and doesn't put her own view over yours. I found her therapeutic approach to be trauma-informed, focused on self-acceptance, self-compassion and looking towards the future. Which is what I needed. Thank you Madison.
