Kinship Care and Therapy | Madeleine Zimmerman, MSW LCSW

Hi there! I am Madeleine Zimmerman, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California and the founder of Kinship Care & Therapy. With over a decade of experience in the social work field, I am a compassionate therapist specializing in alcohol use, anxiety, and codependency/relationship difficulty. I am dedicated to helping clients identify alternative strategies that promote safety, reduce harm and achieve personal goals.

Clients who have worked with me learn to take control of their lives and challenge the guilt, anger, and pain that keeps them stuck. Many of my clients tend to put their well-being on the back burner, whether it’s due to juggling the chaos at home and work or struggling with confidence, acceptance, and handling the rollercoaster of emotions. I’m here to equip you with skills to tackle challenging situations, build a healthy relationship with yourself, and kick those negative beliefs to the curb.

As I create a safe and encouraging space, I welcome individuals facing challenges such as anxiety, alcohol use, trauma, significant life changes and identity struggles. During sessions, clients find comfort and connection through my sense of humor. 17+ teens, adults, and families find me approachable and easy to work with. My approach is supportive, warm, and goal-oriented.

Please reach out for a free, no-obligation phone consultation! It’s an opportunity for us to connect & determine if we are a good fit before proceeding. I am happy to answer any questions as you are navigating this process. Looking forward to connecting!
