Manage episode 451124619 series 3474666
This week Jeremy gets the chance to chat with Madeleine Doelker Berlin, owner of Wildflower Counseling MKE. Madeleine shares her journey from Germany to the U.S., transitioning from homelessness services to becoming a counselor. She highlights systemic differences in social and mental health services between the two countries, focusing on how structural challenges in the U.S., such as limited social safety nets and resource competition, amplify struggles for both unhoused individuals and providers. Madeleine also discusses the complexities of adult immigration, including cultural misalignment, Midwest norms, and her focus on supporting immigrant women and navigating motherhood through her private practice.
