The future you deserve. You know it's out there - but how do you get there? If you're searching for a therapist, there's a good chance you're experiencing emotional pain. You may have suffered a loss or experienced trauma. Perhaps you are dealing with a pattern of troubled relationships, or a tendency toward underachievement at work or school. It may be that you're struggling with a difficult life transition, or a history of self-sabotaging behaviors that has kept you from achieving your goals and finding peace.

We often hear that healing and growth is not linear. Working on ourselves and our relationships is an ongoing process with its ups and downs. Just when we think we're out of the woods, life reminds us of its unpredictability. If life is consistently inconsistent, how can we best adjust, work towards acceptance, and reduce our suffering? Our willingness to work towards self improvement can shift like the wind and when our motivation and energy dwindles, so does our trust in ourselves and those around us. As fear, anxiety, sadness, and even hopelessness settles in, tackling simple tasks seems unattainable.

Effective therapy begins with the client-therapist relationship. In my practice I create a safe space for discussion surrounding life’s inevitable challenges. The foundation of my sessions is empathy, and from an empathic perspective I seek to guide clients toward finding their own inner strength in the face of difficulty, complex emotions, loss, and traumatic situations. I am a highly sensitive therapist and I am skilled in treating highly sensitive people. Using a strengths-based approach, I can help foster understanding and resilience to move through negative experiences and self-defeating patterns into a place of empowerment.

When uncomfortable feelings like anxiety, sadness, loneliness, anger, shame, guilt, or confusion overwhelm us, we often try to make them disappear or ignore them. This might work temporarily, but often those feelings come back and keep us from solving problems, improving our situation and moving forward.

I believe that therapy is an opportunity for people to get the most out of life. It is a reflection of one’s courage to face familial changes, life stressors and significant emotional experiences. An overarching goal of my practice is to utilize one’s talents, strengths, creativity, wisdom and optimism to help individuals regain control of their complicated lives. As such, I utilize Cognitive Behavioral and Psychodynamic approaches. I find that Psychodynamic Therapy can be particularly beneficial for those who have lost meaning in their lives or have difficulty forming or maintaining relationships.

Major life changes can leave you feeling stuck, confused, lost, alone, disappointed, or unsure what's next for you. Perhaps the excitement of a new relationship, new baby, new job, or new school, may not have met your hopes or expectations. Perhaps you would like to change something, but don't know what to do next. Anxiety in these situations is more common than you think.

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 were 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. Footprints 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.
