I believe in the potential of human beings to grow, change, experience, seek and find meaning in their lives. I believe in existential, humanistic and person-centered perspectives where respect and dignity of, and for individuals are paramount to their therapeutic process. Growth and change are processes that occur as a result of a combination of one's life experiences; however, our daily life experiences often do not afford the time or space for such self-exploration of one's feelings, thoughts or interpersonal connections and relationships. Therapy is therefore a person-driven process which allows for self-examination and change.

Welcome! As a queer, trans, Caribbean American therapist, I value self-exploration, collaboration, and mutual effort towards finding and utilizing one's inner strength.

I specialize in cultural and gender specific issues, particularly with women of color and the special obstacles they face due to the fact that many are not taught to date. This is a very important skill that leads to relationship stability and happiness. On the other hand men face obstacles regarding their challenges of staying faithful and oftentimes blame "biology" and their mates for this instead of getting to the core of the problem and the anxiety they feel when contemplating commitment and monogamy.

I have a genuine desire to help others succeed in fulfilling their potential. I provide a safe, warm and non-judgmental sessions where you can talk about your concerns, problems and issues. I use attentive listening, reflection and motivational interviewing. I am always looking for new ways to help my clients by listening attentively and reflecting back to make sure I understand.

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.

I believe therapy can be a critical component of growth with the right counselor.My approach to counseling is person-centered and psychosomatic. Every client commands a tailored approach toward growth that depends on what works best for that individual.
