Our therapists provide online therapy in Charlottesville, VA

Hi, I’m Madison Powell, Resident in Counseling, MSEd. I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, stress, and major life transitions. Many of the clients I support feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Whether you're looking to heal from past experiences, build healthier coping skills, strengthen your relationships, or feel more confident in managing life's challenges, I aim to provide a supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and respected. 

My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and tailored to your unique needs. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, person-centered, and narrative approaches, I help clients identify patterns, reframe unhelpful beliefs, build resilience, and develop practical tools for lasting change and personal growth. 

Seeking support takes courage, and you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate environment where you feel empowered to grow, heal, and move forward with confidence. If you're ready to invest in yourself and your well-being, I would be honored to be part of your journey.

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Bridgewater College and a Master of Science in Counselor Education from Longwood University. I am dual-licensed in Virginia as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and School Counselor, an approved Clinical Supervisor through the Virginia Board of Counseling, and a Certified Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Clinician. I provide counseling services to children, adolescents, and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, emotional regulation difficulties, behavioral concerns, school-related issues, and life transitions.

My counseling approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and tailored to each client's needs. Drawing from evidence-based practices, including DBT, I help clients develop skills to manage emotions, cope with stress, improve relationships, and navigate challenges. My goal is to empower clients to recognize their strengths, overcome obstacles, and thrive.

I am committed to providing a compassionate and supportive space where growth, healing, and positive change can occur. I believe that every individual has the capacity for resilience and growth, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside clients as they work toward their goals. I welcome the opportunity to support you on your journey.

My goal is to provide steady guidance and practical support as a respectful partner who values honesty, feedback, and collaboration.

I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Arkansas and blend evidence-informed care with lived experience. My sessions emphasize practical tools, steady structure, and clear goals to help clients build confidence and skills between visits.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 7 years of experience supporting teens, adults, and veterans who are navigating PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, life transitions, and the lasting impact of past experiences. Many of the people I work with are seeking understanding, emotional balance, and a steady, supportive space where they can explore what they have been carrying and begin to heal.

I earned my master’s in social work from Virginia Commonwealth University. My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply trauma informed. I draw from internal family systems, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and motivational interviewing to help clients process difficult experiences, and build grounding skills.

You deserve a place where you feel supported, understood, and able to move at a pace that feels right for you. Healing does not have to happen alone. I am here with care, curiosity, and respect as you take steps toward feeling more grounded and whole. When you are ready, I would be honored to walk with you on your path forward.
