About Madeline

Madeline Libretti is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida who brings five years of clinical experience working with adults, families, and adolescents. She holds a Master of Social Work from New York University, awarded in 2014, and a master’s degree in experimental psychology from St. John’s University. Early in her career she provided mental health services within a New York City hospital system, supporting women during pregnancy and the postpartum period, families with infants in the NICU, and patients across pediatrics, general medical units, and the emergency department.

For the past two years she has worked in a primary care clinic offering short-term counseling to adults facing stress, depression, anxiety, chronic medical challenges, and reactions to new medical diagnoses. Since the COVID-19 pandemic she has expanded virtual services, including hosting a support group addressing pandemic-related stress and adjustment.

Her style is collaborative, goal-oriented, and client-centered. She draws on a range of evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered techniques, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Problem-Solving Therapy to meet clients where they are and build practical coping skills. Madeline works with people on concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, trauma, grief, addiction, ADHD, parenting challenges, and life transitions, helping them identify goals and develop sustainable habits for wellbeing.

Evidence-Based Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and build actions that align with their values, even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present. It can be helpful for stress, anxiety, life transitions, and difficulties with motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and teaching practical skills to change those patterns; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and problem-solving in day-to-day life. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship in which the therapist listens deeply and supports the person’s own capacity to find solutions and grow, making it useful for issues related to self-esteem, relationship struggles, and adjustment.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Madeline collaborates with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. The process is shared and flexible, with the therapist and client shaping the path together.

Online therapy makes these approaches accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options offer scheduling flexibility, easier access from home or work, and the ability to continue consistent care when life circumstances change, while still working with licensed professionals trained in evidence-based methods.
