About Madeline
Madeline Libretti is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on practical, goal-focused therapy. She works with adults on common struggles like anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship or family concerns. Madeline aims to make the first steps feel manageable and straightforward for people reaching out for help.
Madeline favors a collaborative, client-centered style. Sessions emphasize clear goals and real skills that people can use between appointments. She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and the Gottman Method to match tools to each person's situation.
Background and approach
Her background includes clinical work in hospital settings and primary care, where she provided short-term counseling for medical and mental health concerns. That experience shaped her focus on practical coping strategies for life changes, chronic medical issues, and grief. She has about five years of clinical experience and holds a Master of Social Work degree, listed as LCSW.
Madeline also supports people facing addiction, burnout and compassion fatigue, parenting stress, attachment and abandonment concerns, and issues around intimacy or sexual identity. She uses straightforward techniques to reduce overwhelming feelings and improve communication and boundaries. In sessions she mixes skill-building with reflective discussion.
The aim is to leave people with clear next steps, whether that means new coping habits, improved routines, or better ways to talk about hard things. Madeline frames therapy as teamwork, moving at a pace that fits each person's needs.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Madeline commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. ACT focuses on identifying personal values and taking small, committed actions that match those values, which can help with motivation, meaning, and coping with difficult thoughts. CBT looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete techniques to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.She approaches choice of method as a collaboration. During early sessions she will talk with each person about their goals, daily routines, and what has or has not helped before. Together they pick methods and skills to try, then adjust based on what works and what feels manageable for the individual.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls are helpful for face-to-face conversation and deeper skills work, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging make it simpler to get brief support, practice skills between sessions, or fit therapy into a busy schedule. These options let people access care from different settings and maintain regular progress without long commutes.
