Meet The Team.
My name is Madeline Kraut, and I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in the state of Idaho. I am a practicing mental health professional, and I designed this space to share insights for improving mental wellness, informed by my personal mental health journey, the wisdom of my clients, and my education as a masters level social worker.
As a therapist, I take a warm and empathetic approach, coupled with education and empowerment for my clients to feel confident in making the changes necessary for their thriving. Working hard to create a sense of safety in the therapeutic alliance is my highest priority.
I founded Blue Jay Therapy in 2025 out of a desire to work with clients in a collaborative and empowering way. The namesake comes from my love for nature and its restorative power..
My website and podcast were borne out of a desire to have a creative outlet coupled with my passion for educating others on topics that can be life-changing, like the tenets of emotional maturity. I believe that access to the basics of mental wellness is a human right, and I understand that not everyone is able to access quality mental health care. This is a space attempting to bridge that gap. I look forward to connecting with you along this journey of creativity, courage, and authenticity. Thanks for being here.
When I'm not working, I enjoy reading, sharing good food with friends, exploring beautiful places, and snuggling on the couch with my sweet rescue dog, Ranger.
