About Maddie Benavidez
Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m so glad you’re here.
My approach centers on multicultural competence. I recognize how factors like culture, identity, and life circumstances shape mental health and healing. I often begin with narrative therapy, helping clients rewrite the stories they’ve been carrying, while incorporating trauma-informed methods along the way.
I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating depression, high-functioning anxiety, grief, burnout, interpersonal conflict, self-esteem struggles, and trauma. With couples, I draw on Gottman Method training to strengthen communication, build trust, and work through conflict. I have a special interest in supporting those with OCD, drawing on training in exposure and response prevention (ERP). With children, I bring in play therapy and DBT skills to meet them where they are.
My experience includes culturally responsive care across diverse backgrounds, and as a former Division I athlete myself, I bring firsthand insight into sports performance and the mental side of competing.
I can’t wait to get to work with you.
