Madeline Fellabom, LPC

she/her/hers

As a Charleston native, I am grateful for the opportunity to work in my home community. After receiving a business degree from Clemson University, I moved to Chicago and worked in the corporate world before deciding to follow my passion for helping others. After returning to Charleston, I received my Masters Degree in Psychology: Clinical Counseling from The Citadel and began my career in private practice with Psychotherapy Charleston.

My experience in the academic, athletic, and corporate world helps me to empathize and understand the performance pressures and associated anxieties that arise in both our professional and personal lives. As a therapist, I have an engaging approach that will support, encourage, and challenge you. I passionately believe that through collaboration you will reflect on your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and identify your blind spots and pain points. Understanding your upbringing and relationship dynamics from an early age can help you become more self-aware and make connections to how you are relating with others. This increased self-awareness will be your starting point. With my support, you will use your insights to redirect your life to achieve the self acceptance and inner-peace that you seek.

My passion for trauma-informed care developed out of seeing the needs of my clients who experienced various levels of suffering, with trauma often being at the root. Through that, my approach is trauma-informed, somatic based (or body-centered), and attachment informed. 

I have experience and training in a multitude of different therapeutic modalities as well including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Attachment theory, Mindfulness based practices, Reconsolidation of traumatic memories, Polyvagal theory, and Nervous system regulation. I work with adults of all walks of life. All races, all sexualities, all genders, and all members of the LBGTQIA+ community.
