ABOUT

Madeleine Power (she/her pronouns) is a highly skilled counsellor, mentor and presenter with a passion for supporting people to address and clear what is not true to them and live their full potential. She brings the utmost integrity to her sessions and offers a space completely free of judgement, allowing her clients to feel comfortable, settled and heard. Madeleine is very practical in the way she supports her clients to come to a greater awareness and develop a sense of empowerment and purpose that they can then take in to their daily lives.

Alongside counselling, Madeleine has spent the past 20+ years working in a variety of roles that have always centred around supporting people. Some of these roles have included: Youth Development Worker, Primary School Teacher, Case Manager and Residential Care Worker.

She loves the combination of both roles and finds that it supports her to have a deeper understanding of the current needs and issues faced by young people, parents, families and those in the workforce.

Madeleine meets her clients with a care, openness and relatability that puts everyone at ease. She is a forever student of life and knows she will never stop learning and growing. Madeleine understands the importance of walking her talk and talking her walk and is transparent, consistent and ever-present in the support of her clients.
