As social beings we want connection with others. Sometimes obstacles prevent us from these healthy connections. It is my belief that the task of looking inward and identifying (awareness) these obstacles is the first step to change. The second step is to embrace what we find (acceptance). Once we identify and accept what prevents us from feeling content, a sense of accountability settles in and enables change (action). My role is to work with you by exploring your thoughts/feelings from the perspective you've have adopted and provide you with alternative tools and an objective perspective to foster growth and transcendence.

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.
