Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan

mental state (ex- spouse)

My ex- girlfriend and I have been separated for about 4 mos. and she has physical custody of our child. We have a support hearing in December, but I want to go for custody of our 3 yr. old daughter.It is my understanding that I have to file a motion for custody separate from the support hearing. My ex- girlfriend suffers from anxiety,depression, and PTSD (Post Tramatic Stress Disorder).How do I go about obtaining her medical records, and how might the court decide? There is a possibilty that she may have signed a form consenting me to talk to her counselor/ physician. Am I able to obtain these records by her having signed this form?
