Adoption Care Services was created to meet a real need. Our founder, a mental health professional, saw firsthand how difficult it can be for families to navigate multiple providers — especially during times of crisis, including within her own family. ACS was built with the goal of bringing together mental health, psychiatry, and occupational therapy services under one roof for children, teens, and adults impacted by adoption. No matter how adoption is part of your story, we're here to support you and walk alongside you every step of the way.
Mental health, psychiatry, and occupational therapy, coordinated together so families don't have to juggle disconnected providers during already hard seasons.
Our practice was founded because of a personal journey with adoption. We understand the complexity not just clinically, but personally.
Whether you're newly adopted, navigating identity in adulthood, or parenting through complexity: we meet you exactly where you are.
Our clinicians are trained in effective, evidence-based approaches designed to help you process difficult experiences and create lasting change, not just manage symptoms.

Every clinician on our team is trauma-informed and chosen for both their clinical skill and their genuine care for the families we serve.

Everyone deserves to feel heard, valued and safe. It is a passion of mine to ensure that happens in each therapy session. I aim to teach skills in order for individuals to manage through difficult experiences, knowing we cannot mitigate all of life's pain on our own.
I specialize in supporting clients process trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, parenting, relational discord and adoption-related difficulties. I obtained my BSW from Taylor University and my MSW from Grand Valley State University, and spent a decade as a school social worker before transitioning into private practice.
The modalities I utilize most are Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI).

Supporting children and families as they navigate life's challenges with compassion, connection, and hope is at the heart of my work as an occupational therapist. Creating a safe, trusting environment where every child feels seen, valued, and supported is a priority in my practice.
With a passion for helping children build confidence and participate more fully in daily life, I enjoy working with children experiencing behavioral challenges, sensory processing differences, mental health concerns, and motor coordination difficulties. A trauma-informed, strengths-based approach guides my practice, recognizing that behavior is a form of communication and that each child’s unique experiences, needs, and goals should shape their therapy journey.
After earning my Master of Occupational Therapy degree from Carroll University in 2020, I began practicing as an occupational therapist and have continued to expand my clinical knowledge through specialized training in trauma-informed care, neurodiversity-affirming practices, reflex integration, and child-led play approaches. These trainings support my ability to provide individualized strategies that promote regulation, participation, development, and meaningful engagement while honoring each child’s unique strengths and differences.
Meaningful relationships, play, and collaboration are the foundation of effective therapy. By partnering with caregivers and other members of a child’s support team, I strive to help children develop new skills, strengthen confidence, and engage in the activities that matter most to them. It is a privilege to walk alongside children and their families, and I look forward to celebrating each child’s growth, resilience, and unique strengths.

Hello! I’m Kate Miller and I’ve been a Licensed Master’s Level Social Worker within the clinical and school settings since graduating from Grand Valley State University in 2006. I have extensive experience working therapeutically with children, teens, and young adults. I recognize that we are living in a world where taking care of our mental health has never been more critical. As a working mother of three children, one with special needs and disabilities, I’ve experienced first-hand the negative effects chronic stress can have on one’s mental, emotional, and physical well-being. We often don’t have control over preventing life’s obstacles, such as trauma, abuse, grief and loss, mental or physical illness, disabilities, or unexpected major life changes. However, learning to shape how we think about and respond to these events in a healthy manner can reduce the negative impact on our mental and emotional health, increase our resiliency, and create a renewed feeling of empowerment and hopefulness about the future.
Life is a journey with continuous opportunities to grow and develop into our best self. It would be my hope to support you through the therapeutic process by providing a safe and relational environment where you or your child will feel at ease. The simple exercise of exploring our thoughts, feelings, worries, and needs with a trusted person has a powerful and healing impact on one’s emotional well-being and state of mind. I seek to adapt my practice interventions to the unique needs of my clients, and I value the client’s insights and self-determination when defining therapeutic goals. My specialized models of practice include, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness, Solution Focused Therapy, and Trauma Informed Practices, which I have found to enhance the therapeutic process and support clients in meeting their individualized goals.

Hello! My name is Holly Jones and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have been working in the mental health field since 2017. I have worked in multiple different settings surrounding mental health including residential settings, schools, home-based services, and clinical settings.
My passion in therapy is found in working with individuals who are experiencing possibly tough or complex situations in life and are seeking a breakthrough. I have experience in mental health related to chronic illnesses, special education, life-transitions, death/grieving, conflict-resolution, identity/purpose exploration, the juvenile justice system, and more.
I do not believe therapy is a one size fits all approach and am dedicated to tailoring your needs to you. The specialized modalities I often utilize in practice include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Strengths Based Perspective, Mindfulness, and Trauma Informed Practices. I work more specifically with clients who are in the age ranges of 14-40 but am open to other ages as well.
Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my Husband and our 3 young energetic boys. We love going biking and simply just being together. One thing you should know about me is that I greatly value humor and laughter- I truly believe it can be medicine for the soul. If you feel I would be a good fit for you, please feel free to reach out.

I am a Licensed Social Worker with a Master of Social Work from Michigan State University and more than 20 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families. I primarily work with individuals ages 5–45 and welcome the opportunity to support people through the unique challenges and transitions that come with different stages of life.
Throughout my career, I have worked in home-based services, outpatient counseling, schools, consulting, and special education. I currently serve as a Special Education Parent Liaison with Kent ISD, where I support families and school districts as they navigate special education.
My approach to counseling is compassionate, collaborative, and individualized. I believe everyone has their own story, strengths, and experiences that shape how they see themselves and navigate the world. I strive to create a safe, comfortable space where children, teens, and adults can feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. Together, we can identify strengths, develop practical tools, work through challenges, and build confidence for moving forward.
My professional background includes Play Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, adoption, special education, disabilities, community-based resources, and cognitive coaching. I have experience supporting individuals and families through a wide range of challenges and enjoy helping clients better understand themselves, build coping skills, strengthen relationships, and navigate difficult seasons of life.
My personal experiences have also shaped the way I understand and support families. I am a mother of five children, ranging in age from 4 to 20, and I have adopted two children with disabilities. These experiences have given me a deeper understanding of the joys, challenges, uncertainty, and resilience that can come with parenting and family life.
Outside of my work, I enjoy reading, traveling and vacationing with my family, and movement of all kinds. I feel privileged to walk alongside children, teens, adults, and families during important seasons of their lives. Whether you are working through a specific challenge, navigating a transition, or simply hoping to better understand yourself, I would be honored to support you on your journey.
