Anxiety Therapists in Orange, NJ

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. 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.

Being a Marriage and Family Therapist has given me the opportunity to step outside of the clinical box and work with an array of different mental and behavioral health issues.

Whether it be anxiety, depression, lack of communication, defiant child-parent dynamics, or phase of life circumstances, I believe there is always an opportunity to make positive changes and start living a life we are truly excited about.

I am a NJ Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist with over 20 years of social work experience and providing psychotherapy since 2018. I provide affirmative, trauma-informed, clinical psychotherapy to adult QTPOC individuals, couples, and groups. As a Doctor of Social Work candidate, my focus of study is on the effectiveness of treatment among shared identities between clinicians and clients.
