Madison Marcotte Lippert , LCSW, CSW

Madison Marcotte Lippert helps people who are worn down by stress, anxiety, grief, relationship struggles, or the strain of big life changes. She is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience and she practices in Minnesota. Madison writes and talks plainly so people can focus on what matters next.

She uses a mix of evidence-based methods to fit each person's needs. Sessions often include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thinking and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and take meaningful action. Attachment-based ideas and Emotionally-Focused Therapy guide conversations about close relationships and repairing connection.

Madison blends practical skills and short-term tools with a collaborative, client-centered stance. She treats therapy as teamwork - listening first, naming strengths, and trying small changes that add up. That approach supports people managing depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, or challenges with intimacy and self-esteem.

Her background spans schools, hospitals, physician offices, and private practice. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Social Work and a Master of Social Work from The Ohio State University. Madison also has experience helping people navigate parenting stress, workplace pressure, caregiver fatigue, and young adult concerns.

Sessions are offered in English and delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Madison uses clinical approaches flexibly and helps clients find the best fit for their goals.

Approaches that translate to online care

Madison commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values even when feelings are hard.

She also draws on Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ideas to address relationship patterns and emotional connection in close relationships. Those approaches help people understand attachment needs and practice different ways of relating that can ease conflict and increase closeness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Madison will talk with clients about goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust as needed so the therapy stays useful and relevant.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging makes frequent brief support possible. These options help clients fit sessions into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while using the therapeutic methods described above.
