Mrs. Madyson Soria-Estrada, Professional Counselor Intern, n/a is practicing under the supervision of Melissa Youngblood (Michigan, LPC, 6401009322) at Therapeia Counseling.

Please, note: A clinician listed as being “clinically supervised” is completing clinical hours toward their licensure. They have one or more fully licensed clinical supervisors that often have special training to become supervisors. They consult with their supervisor(s) on all of their cases, which means that, when working with them, you are getting the time and expertise of multiple therapists in your treatment.

I have always been interested in the mind and how an individual's life experiences and upbringing can affect or determine how they go through their lives. After I got out of the military, I saw the importance of mental health services within the veteran community and with individuals who have experienced hardships throughout their lives and struggled to find a way through them. It is my hope to walk with my clients through these difficult times so that they feel comfortable and happy in their lives.

I am a Marine Corps veteran who is currently an intern at Therapeia Counseling while I earn my master's degree in Mental Health Counseling. During my time in the Marine Corps, I trained and assisted younger Marines as they transitioned from the school portion of their training into fully-fledged Marines. This allowed me to understand how individuals learn and adapt to each style to assist the Marines better as they grew confident in their positions. After the Marine Corps, I began my educational journey to become a Mental Health Counselor, and I am completing the final steps of my degree through my internship semester. During this process, I have worked with individuals who experienced depression, anxiety, difficult life transitions, trauma, and grief. Each individual and diagnosis is different, so I strive to work with the client to determine which treatment is best for them to help them meet their goals and feel better.
