Blue Care Network Therapists in Milwood, Kalamazoo, MI
I work with Latine/x and adults and children navigating trauma, stress, life transitions, and the particular weight of living between two cultures. I also welcome clients of all identities who value a culturally aware, socially conscious space.
Therapy with me is pretty relaxed. I'm not rigid about structure, and I want you to feel like you can talk about whatever is most pressing for you. But honestly, I follow your lead. Our time together is an investment in your time (and money) and that's most important!
I also offer immigration evaluations (extreme hardship, asylum, t-visa, etc.) for those navigating that system.

Is a part of you feeling ready to engage in therapy but another part of you is anxious at the thought of becoming vulnerable? Or maybe there is a different part of you feeling hopeless, depressed, and wondering “Why even bother?” I will walk alongside you to assess the inner conflicts that may be present. Sometimes, the “inner conflict” happening is between these “parts.”

Life can quickly take a turn leaving us in shock, feeling like our future is uncertain and out of control. Seeking help processing is the first step to healing. Knowing that you are not alone as you navigate through the process brings a sense of comfort and reassurance needed in difficult times.

Life is a roller coaster that can be very stressful. These last few years have been challenging. Life is hard! I have been there myself! I am here to help. What can you do when you feel tired and overwhelmed? I learned how to manage anxiety, depression, panic attacks, sexual abuse, trauma, and grief. I consider it a privilege to walk alongside others who are looking to deal with similar issues. I work with females ages 12-100. I use various models like CBT, DBT, solution-focused and trauma-informed therapy. I also love to incorporate humor and laughter into our time together. Let's talk and see if I can help.

As a therapist for almost 20 years, I love working with people experiencing ADHD, midlife transitions, anxiety, sober curious, and LGBTQIA. I think we can figure it out together.

Are you and your partner stuck in painful emotional cycles that leave you both feeling sad, anxious, overwhelmed or alone? For example, do you or your partner feel defensive when one of you voices your concerns? Does it feel like your partner doesn't care about your feelings, needs or longings? Is it difficult to work together toward common goals or do you fight over the smallest of details? Even in the most loving relationships, these negative cycles can show up when partners have different ways of responding to emotional stressors within the relationship or from external sources such as jobs, family, illness or friends.

Do you find yourself stuck in the same arguments over and over? Conversations may start small but quickly escalate, leaving you frustrated, hurt, or shut down. Sometimes it’s hard to even begin; things go unsaid, tension builds, and distance grows. You might feel overwhelmed by emotions, react in ways you regret, or struggle to express what you actually need. It can feel like speaking different languages, missing each other despite wanting to feel close. Over time, these patterns can leave you feeling disconnected, stuck, and unsure how to move forward, even when there is still care and commitment.
