Although some struggle is an inevitable part of life, there is the danger of accepting continual pain & struggle as "the way life is". This way of thinking can keep a person trapped, unable to even imagine what "better" would look like. Therapy offers a way out. For some, the traumas suffered in the past make it difficult to find happiness. Others may find themselves behaving in ways that leave them feeling worse, or once again in the same hurtful relationships. Some may be consumed with regrets about past mistakes, or filled with fear of the future, missing opportunities to live well in the present.

To others, you feel like an imposter in your career or relationships. You feel like you are flailing through life and constantly questioning yourself. Everyone seems to have it all together while you are barely making it through the day. Emotions take over a lot these days, and you have a hard time letting things go. You are not alone. I work with teens and adults struggling with stress, depression, burnout, anxiety, and moodiness. These issues often go hand in hand with self-doubt, self-sabotage, and imposter syndrome. I want to help you become more confident and develop a secure relationship with yourself and others.

Therapy can be awkward. The thought of sharing your inner thoughts and feelings with a stranger is scary. You might worry about being judged, misunderstood, or getting exposed. You might even have some bad experiences with a former therapist and are afraid of trying again. "Will this therapist understand cultural/family quirks?" "Will they think I am crazy if I share my religious experiences?" I get it! I help my clients work through anxiety, depression, mood dysregulation, relationship issues, parenting problems, and spiritual concerns. This includes scrupulosity, religious trauma, and the spiritual/cognitive aspects of behavior.

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.

We understand how daunting and even intimidating seeking help can be. Both culture and society have conditioned us to look at therapy through a negative lense, as something that is punitive, unnecessary, and in some cases as a sign of weakness. On the contrary , participating in therapy can be a liberating experience. It is a place where you can begin your process of obtaining closure to unresolved conflicts, that every so often seem to come to the surface and interfere with your daily life. We are here to genuinely assist you in making sense of it all. No Judgement, and our services are confidential.
