Madison Oie, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Hi! I'm Madison. I accompany folks on the exploration of their inner world in weekly therapy sessions. Helping people expand their awareness of themselves and deepen into their here-and-now experiences is my primary focus.
I work with folks who’ve had painful experiences, are struggling in their life or find themselves ready to heal.

What happens in therapy? It depends! Every session is tailored to your needs and what’s alive for you. As an integrative therapist, I draw from multiple disciplines to meet you where you’re at. No matter the approach we take, I believe therapy should always be trauma-informed, collaborative and consensual.
Parts Work Internal family systems aka ‘parts work’ is an evidence-based modality that involves getting to know different aspects of ourselves. Speaking to and from these parts creates stronger inner relationships and sense of Self. All parts are welcome.
Body-Based Insights We may use mindfulness and somatic exploration to tap into the body’s sensations and memories. The body can help bring unconscious material, emotions and visualizations into session and show us a strength-based path toward healing.
Exploration of Memories Looking at the past can be painful, but it can also unlock agency and insight. We’ll move through memory at your pace to understand how you became you. This may look like revisiting difficult times and exploring new outcomes.
Studying Patterns Understanding our behavior, thoughts or relationship patterns gives us information about what needs attention and healing. I use attachment theory and a relational approach to help uncover patterns.
ServicesIn therapy, here are some of the things we may work on:
Cope, healthier Improve the way you take care of yourself. We’ll examine and tend to your survival strategies to pave the way for transformation.
Break cycles Intergenerational patterns in our families affect our day-to-day lives. Identify cycles and move past those that don’t serve you.
Heal trauma Your nervous system may be in fight, flight, freeze or fawn. Slowly, we can re-program it to achieve rest and promote healing.
Create meaning Reframing a story can connect you to its greater purpose. We’ll look from different angles to discover your deeper truths.
Integrate experiences Life throws us curveballs. Therapy is an open invitation to examine life’s paradoxes: beauty and pain, shadow and light.
Build boundaries Exploring your needs, desires and dreams takes courage. Learn to advocate for yourself from a place of inner love, trust and respect. Additional Servicestrauma, anxiety, therapist, therapy, depression
