You are not alone. I'm here to guide you to get solutions to deal with your symptoms of depression, anxiety, attention deficit disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, bipolar disorder, trauma, anger management, suicidal ideation, substance abuse and other symptoms that you might be facing in your life.

I believe all people who walk into therapy have experienced personal challenges, which at some point have left them feeling stuck or alone. My hope is to join you as you navigate suffering and move through life’s challenging moments together. I aim to create a warm and nurturing therapy space, meeting you where you are, so you can feel cared for and seen by me. No matter what struggle you are facing- anxiety, relationship stress, life transitions, recovering from trauma, family conflict, health problems, self-esteem, or identity issues- I am confident we can find a path forward together. I work with adult individuals and couples.

Footprints was started by a therapist who realized that often times the services provided to low socio-economic communities is lacking quality care. We noticed these communities where confronted with long wait times, disrespectful admins, and subpar treatment. The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Feel Better Therapy began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.

What do you do when you don't feel seen, heard, or when your needs are not being met? Often folks develop useful, but sometimes counterproductive, ways of surviving or getting through overwhelming moments. Therapy can be a place to disrupt old habits that have long served their purpose and are robbing you of opportunities for growth and happiness. It's a place to not just be seen and heard, but where you can see and hear yourself. I specialize in helping clients find solutions to problems related to depression, anxiety, chronic illness, a/sexual identity and traumatic experiences.

You are capable of healing with adequate resources and expert care. I started a private practice so that I can help you grow into the person you want to be. In our work together, your well-being is my top priority. I utilize emotion regulation strategies and psychodynamic processing to address the root causes of emotion dysregulation, including treatment of past trauma and addressing attachment anxiety. My practice is neurodiverse-affirming, and I am happy to talk with you about psychological assessment for diagnosis and individualized recommendations to support your neurotype and overall psychological and emotional functioning.

Do you feel like you are existing rather than fully living… like a passenger in your own life? Living life on ‘auto-pilot’ can leave us feeling unfulfilled, full of self-doubt and disconnected from our true selves and from others. Perhaps you feel like you are spinning your wheels in life – like something is missing in terms of your self-worth, career or relationships. Maybe you feel estranged from who you really are, lost or ‘off-track’ in your direction, and wondering how you got here. Or stuck in repetitive patterns with disappointing results. All of this can sap your energy and make life feel like a ‘slog’.
