"I have the training, experience, and heart to help you."
Madelyn Swed, MFT
Over my 30 plus years of extensive training and practice I have developed the skills that enable me to be a highly effective therapist. As a lifelong learner my work is informed by the latest research in the field of psychotherapy. In addition to being a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am also a Certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), is a proven model with the highest success rates for achieving a long lasting, loving, and secure bond. I am so deeply gratified when a client has shared how our work together has changed their life and so honored to guide and witness moments of bonding when partners experience more connection and joy between them than ever.
My practice is guided by a number of principles:

My practice is guided by a number of principles:
- a safe environment and a compassionate, understanding presence, free of judgment, are the foundation from which we are able to slow down, reflect, explore, and grow.
- the importance of attachment in shaping our development and well-being.
- neuroscience (the latest research on the brain)
- an understanding of the mind-body connection and the power of working with emotion and present moment experience to create lasting change.
- welcoming clients of diverse backgrounds and lifestyles.
