Meet Madi

Registered Clinical Counsellor

this is me:

What makes me come alive

Hi! My name is Madi Maitz and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Registered Social Worker with a Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work.

As humans, I understand that we are wired for, and long for connection in our lives. Connection to ourselves, to others, and to our world. When we feel disconnected, our lives can feel confusing, painful, and like we are lost. I believe in the importance and healing nature of connection and aim to develop strong, trusting relationships with my clients that allow connection and purpose to flourish in and outside of sessions. In essence, I believe that connection is at the heart of our resilience.

Hi! My name is Madi Maitz and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Registered Social Worker with a Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work.

As humans, I understand that we are wired for, and long for connection in our lives. Connection to ourselves, to others, and to our world.

I believe in the importance and healing nature of connection and aim to develop strong, trusting relationships with my clients that allow connection and purpose to flourish in and outside of sessions. In essence, I believe that connection is at the heart of our resilience.

My approach draws on my own lived experiences and knowledge gained through implementing a variety of mental health and wellness practices into my own life, as well as my education that encourages a holistic lens. I have a passion for helping people understand how physical, psychological, social, and spiritual aspects of our lives are connected and so I implement a holistic approach into my practice. While I employ a variety of therapeutic techniques and
modalities in my practice, I tailor every session to best fit your unique story and individual needs.

I aim to create a space for you to tell your story, explore your thoughts and emotions, and learn about yourself in the process. I trust that you are the expert on yourself and your life and that everything you need to live your fullest life already exists within you. My goal is to encourage and support you in pursuit of discovering your inner resilience, most authentic self, and fullest
life. I understand how difficult it can be to seek counselling and would be honoured to support you in this process.

Currently, I am accepting clients aged 18+ in person and online. I also offer nature-based walk and talk therapy.

Modalities I use in practice:
– ACT
– CBT
– DBT
– Mindfulness-Based Practices
– Somatic Practices
– Motivational Interviewing
– Suicide Intervention
– Trauma-Informed Care
– Nature-Based/ Walk and Talk Therapy

Client M

The work I have done with Barb has changed my life. With her help I learned that I was not only worthy but, capable of helping myself. Walking with her has been one of the most meaningful experiences I have ever had.

Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come Alive.
