She believes healing happens when we feel safe enough to show up authentically, which is why she strives to create a warm, welcoming, and nonjudgmental space where every part of you is welcome. Maddie&nbsp;specializes in working with individuals who have experienced developmental, relational, generational, acute, chronic, and dissociative trauma, as well as those navigating life transitions, identity exploration, and relationship challenges. She is also committed to supporting members of the LGBTQIA+ community and is dedicated to creating an affirming environment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maddie&nbsp;is an IFS Level-1-trained trauma therapist as well as an EMDRIA-approved EMDR&nbsp;(Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)&nbsp;therapist. She primarily integrates IFS, EMDR, and mindfulness-based practices in her work, helping clients build greater awareness, self-compassion, and connection with themselves. Her collaborative, client-centered approach honors the whole person rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, helping clients&nbsp;deepen self-understanding&nbsp;and create lasting change.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maddie\u2019s approach is grounded in compassion, curiosity, and authenticity, and emphasizes helping clients heal from the inside out. Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, she works collaboratively with clients to understand the experiences that have shaped them while helping them build a life that feels more connected, fulfilling, and aligned with who they are.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a client, you can expect a warm, welcoming, and engaging therapeutic relationship. Maddie believes therapy is not about &#8220;fixing&#8221; people, rather fostering understanding, healing, and reconnection with the resilience they already possess. Her hope is that clients leave each session feeling more empowered, grounded, and connected to themselves.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Madeline Brown, LGPC,\u00a0is licensed in the state of\u00a0Maryland\u00a0(#LGP15453)\u00a0and under the clinical supervision of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safeharborbc.com\/counselors\/marie-celano\/\">Marie Celano, LCPC<\/a>\u00a0(#LC5761).\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Client Thrive Program<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Credentials Earned:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:25% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><a href=\"https:\/\/api.badgr.io\/public\/assertions\/ukcIloHsTvO6q-J-F_M42A\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.safeharborbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/engagement-badge-e1673642675653.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3436 size-full\"\/><\/a><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Engagement Badge<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Awarded: 09\/26\/2024<\/p>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:25% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><a href=\"https:\/\/api.badgr.io\/public\/assertions\/7jB4abeiQayRuyZGoShxBQ?identity__email=mbrown%40safeharborbc.com\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.safeharborbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/connection-badge-1-e1673626514848.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3229 size-full\"\/><\/a><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Connection Badge<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Awarded: 10\/10\/2024<\/p>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:25% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><a href=\"https:\/\/api.badgr.io\/public\/assertions\/9qqGvTT1Qwicojhj08RiOw\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.safeharborbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Collaboration-badge.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3563 size-full\"\/><\/a><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Collaboration Badge<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Awarded: 12\/09\/2024<\/p>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8021,"template":"","locations":[291,418,128,176],"insurance":[22,23,51],"issues":[78,53,54,55,19,57,110,82,26,84,27,85,88,31,33,89,90,67,93,45,94,46,68,49,69,50],"gender":[76],"age_groups":[18,61],"language":[28],"treatment_orientation":[16,83,75,114,40],"video_counseling":[34,52],"demographics":[30,63,37,65],"zip_code":[],"care":[],"accepting_new_clients":[417],"class_list":["post-8020","counselors","type-counselors","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","locations-bel-air-md","locations-bel-air-md-gateway-office-2-suite-19c","locations-ellicott-city-condo","locations-ellicott-city-md","insurance-carefirst-bluecross-blueshield","insurance-cigna","insurance-united-healthcare","issues-abortion","issues-abuse-neglect","issues-add-adhd","issues-adoption-foster-care","issues-anxiety-panic","issues-bipolar-disorder","issues-bipoc-issues","issues-court-mandated-therapy","issues-depression","issues-dissociative-disorders","issues-divorce","issues-educational-learning-disabilities","issues-gender-identity-issues","issues-grief-bereavement","issues-anger-management","issues-intellectual-disabilities","issues-interpersonal-effectiveness-in-relationships","issues-personality-disorders","issues-recently-hospitalized-clients-or-those-coming-from-in-patient-treatment-for-mental-health","issues-self-esteem-self-worth","issues-sexual-abuse","issues-sex-therapy","issues-sleep-insomnia","issues-addiction-substance-i-e-drug-alcohol","issues-suicidal-ideation","issues-ptsd","gender-female","age_groups-adults-18","age_groups-senior-elders","language-english","treatment_orientation-acceptance-and-commitment-therapy-act","treatment_orientation-dialectical-dbt","treatment_orientation-emdr","treatment_orientation-internal-family-systems-ifs","treatment_orientation-mindfulness-therapy","video_counseling-no","video_counseling-yes","demographics-female","demographics-lgbt","demographics-male","demographics-military","accepting_new_clients-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
