About Madeline
Madeline Wend is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and holds LPC-MH credentials. She has practiced for 13 years in Texas and aims to help people move from pain toward healthier daily living. Her approach is practical and straightforward, focusing on skills that clients can use between sessions.
She works with anxiety, depression, stress, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues around self-esteem. She also supports people navigating relationship strain, family concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, and career stress.
Background and approach
LGBT concerns and other life transitions are also part of her focus. Madeline uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based methods, and Client-Centered care.
Sessions typically include coping strategies, skill practice, and ways to notice and change unhelpful patterns. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She helps clients name what gets in the way and then builds simple steps to change it.
Work often involves practicing tools, checking how they fit daily life, and adjusting as progress happens. Madeline offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Services are available to people in Texas and to international clients in English.
The subscription model used for sessions can be canceled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that align with what matters most. It helps when worry, avoidance, or rumination get in the way of living the life someone wants. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to manage intense emotions and improve communication.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they try methods, review what works, and adjust the plan so it fits daily life and changing needs.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more accessible. Video calls work well for in-depth conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow for brief check-ins, skill reminders, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These flexible formats help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different situations.
