ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Kalamazoo, MI

Before becoming a counselor, I worked as a deputy sheriff, firefighter, EMT, 911 dispatcher, and U.S. Navy Reserve member. That background shapes how I show up in sessions: direct, practical, and without judgment. I pursued counseling because I found I was genuinely good at helping people feel better, and I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, relationships, grief, and difficult life decisions. If you have been waiting to talk to someone, I am glad you are here.

As a licensed master social worker and board-certified chaplain, I believe prioritizing mental health and spiritual care is key to whole health and total well-being and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the most difficult decisions you'll ever make, so congratulations on taking that first step! My current focus is working with clients dealing with substance abuse, mental health, and marriage and family issues.

Life can be overwhelming at times, and you don't have to navigate it alone. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely heard, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change. Taking the first step can be difficult, so I'm glad you're here.

I'm a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW-C) with experience providing individual, couples, and family therapy to adolescents and adults. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, and self-esteem. Together, we'll build on your strengths, develop practical coping strategies, and work toward the goals that matter most to you.

I am actively welcoming new clients who are looking to do EMDR therapy.

I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely seen, respected, and understood. I bring warmth, curiosity, honesty, a sense of humor, and directness into my work, while recognizing that healing from trauma is complex.

I see you as a whole person, not a diagnosis or a collection of symptoms. I value collaboration and autonomy, and I want you to have a voice in what we focus on and how we work together.

I also understand that culture, identity, relationships, and lived experiences shape how we understand ourselves and the world around us. As a Chinese woman who is part of the LGBTQ+ community, I carry my own unique lens of how the world works, and I welcome all of the lenses and identities you bring into the room.

I am also a cat mom, I have two fur babies that might join our session at times :)

I hope my clients upon meeting me see that I am warm and welcoming and patient with their concerns and needs.

I hope they feel safe knowing I have 30 years in the field and will assist them in their journey with appropriate approaches to assist in reduction of symptoms and or learning more about who they are so they can navigate their life with better skills

I'm Kalyn — a licensed therapist (LMSW) with 9 years of experience and a background that started in community organizing and advocacy, not a clinic. That foundation shapes everything about how I work: I take your whole context seriously, not just your symptoms. I went to the University of Michigan for my MSW, and I've spent nearly a decade working with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, chronic illness, grief, identity, and the kind of stress that doesn't show up in a checklist.I work with adults across Michigan via virtual sessions, and I want you to know that I bring my full self to this work — including my own lived experience as a Black woman navigating a world that doesn't always make space for us to fall apart or ask for help.

When anxiety, depression, ADHD, or shifting moods start affecting your relationships, your sleep, and how you feel about yourself, it can be hard to know where to start. I'm Moneak Parker, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in Michigan, working with adolescents and adults through psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and personalized treatment planning. I support clients with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, borderline personality, OCD, PTSD, panic disorders, sleep concerns, anger, and substance use. My goal is a space where you feel heard, respected, and genuinely in charge of your own care.

Many people reach out for counseling when life feels heavier than usual—when relationships are strained, emotions feel harder to manage, or when they feel overwhelmed with grief. for more than a decade, I have been helping families and individuals of all ages to cope, process and navigate around these issues. My goal is to offer a space where you do not have to hold all of that alone.

I was born and raised in Michigan. I love the four seasons and all of the college and professional sport teams. I have over 20 years of behavioral health experience and both mental health and substance abuse. I also hold a certificate from Western Michigan University for treating drug and alcohol addictions.
