About Madeline
Madeline Reyes is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 23 years of experience in the mental health field. She has a long background that includes forensic counseling and directing programs at a mental health hospital.

Madeline has direct experience with forensic settings and program leadership, which shaped her practical approach to treatment. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing together with solution-focused ideas to address patterns that keep problems going. Sessions use clear goals and steps that a person can try between meetings.
In practice she listens and gives direct feedback. Conversations focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts and habits, testing different responses, and building small skills that change daily life. She also works on motivation for change when substance use or addictive behaviors are a concern.
Madeline speaks English and Spanish and has worked with adolescents, young adults, adults, and families in prior roles. Her experience includes helping people cope with transitions, parenting challenges, and the impact of trauma.
To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Madeline uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts and habits, and to build concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Motivational Interviewing is used to explore a person's readiness for change and to strengthen commitment to specific goals. Solution-Focused Therapy helps identify small, practical steps that can produce visible progress between sessions.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences together and agree on which methods to try. Plans are adjusted based on what works in real life and on the client’s feedback.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue work on skills and motivation from home or during breaks at work without changing the therapeutic focus.
