Jennifer Aguirre, LMSW

You hear the voice in your head with the negative thought cycle? The voice is not you, you are the one listening to it. The voice wants to help you but sometimes it can sound a little frantic and even hopeless because of the experiences you’ve been through. Which experiences in particular? It helped you to remain in fear or defeat during those experiences but they are now over. We create new neural pathways for current triggering experiences to not automatically lead to fearful and hopeless thoughts but to a more regulated nervous system with an adaptive perspective. It takes practice, patience, and playfulness with yourself. I apply evidence-based practices in therapy such as EMDR and Internal Family Systems. Follow my lead as we discover the answers you carry within yourself to get in the driver seat of your internal world. I see adolescents, couples, and families as well, all from a trauma-informed perspective.

I identify as a first generation, Mexican-American (able-bodied, cisgendered) woman :) all identities deserve to feel safe, honored, and embraced. I speak Spanish fluently. Online sessions only. I take most insurances, private pay is $120/session, contact me by clicking below or text or call 248-492-0559, I am available most week days and Saturdays.

You don’t have to keep carrying this on your own. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in depression, or struggling to move forward after trauma, therapy can help you find relief and clarity.

I offer trauma-informed therapy in Waterford, MI and online across Michigan for adults and young adults ready to heal and create meaningful change. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and depression, supporting clients who feel emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or caught in patterns they can’t seem to break.

As a first-generation Mexican-American therapist who speaks Spanish fluently, I provide culturally responsive care in both English and Spanish. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported in your full experience.

My approach is collaborative and tailored to you. I use evidence-based therapies including EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness to help you process past experiences, reduce distress, and build lasting coping skills.

I work with clients in Waterford, MI and surrounding communities like Clarkston, White Lake, Pontiac, Auburn Hills, and West Bloomfield, as well as virtually throughout Michigan.

Whether you’re looking for a trauma therapist, EMDR therapy, or support for anxiety and depression, you don’t have to figure it out alone. When you’re ready, I’m here to help you take the next step.
