Hello, I’m Madeline Ashwood

Not your therapist. Not your friend. Something better.

What I’ve Lived
I’ve seen darkness. I’ve sat with my demons, listened to them, and learned their names—not to fight them, but to understand them. I wanted to see what they were trying to protect, to hold them with care, even when they hurt. I didn’t come through shiny or perfect. I came through whole. Still myself, but stronger. A version I trust. A self I hold with compassion, softness, and pride.

Why I Do This Work
I do this work because not everyone needs to revisit every childhood wound to move forward. Not everyone wants to analyze their past just to make a clear decision in the present. Sometimes, you just need someone who can sit with you in the moment—to see what’s really going on, to help you name it, to help you find your next step. And if you do want to look back—if you’re ready to understand how your past shaped you, to trace the threads, or break the patterns—I’ll walk with you there too. There’s no pressure, no rigid process. Just honest insight, real presence, and deep care.

Who This Is For
This space is for people standing at a threshold. After a loss. After a change. After everything has shifted and you’re still standing, asking, “Now what?” It’s for the ones who’ve done the therapy, who’ve read the books, who know their wounds and are ready for something deeper. Something useful. Something real. Your queerness is honored here. Your neurodivergence is understood. Your lived experience matters. You don’t need to explain who you are. You don’t need to be fixed. You just get to be—and be met.

What I Offer
If you’re looking for someone who sees beneath the surface, who isn’t afraid of your story, and who will walk beside you as you become the next version of yourself—you’re in the right place. This isn’t therapy. It isn’t friendship. It’s something better. A mirror, held steady, so you can see yourself clearly and move forward freely.
