We all have our stories to tell and narratives to make sense of our lives. But as you go through life, sometimes, things are not at all what they seem. What you feel inside and how you function in your life don’t always align. Hardships such as trauma, abuse, divorce, loss, and feelings of oppression mask and confuse our inner compass. We tend to hold conflict and unfinished business in our bodies. These experiences affect our relationships with others, but more importantly, affect our connection with ourselves.

Let’s Talk Food & Mood. Often times we find ourselves in a constant state of overwhelm. Work, kids, relationships, finances, loss and bereavement are contributing factors. Would you consider yourself an emotional or stress eater? Science has proven that unhealthy food choices and erratic meal patterns create digestive issues which deplete the serotonin levels in the brain. This is a direct correlation to mood swings, anxiety, depression, brain fog, headaches and sadness. Consider contacting me for a free consultation today. It’s not about what you fill your plate with, it’s what you fill your mind with that will create change.

Tired of feeling stuck and frustrated? You deserve to live a meaningful and fulfilling life. I can help you accomplish that in numerous ways. While I offer traditional talk therapy, I also offer Somatic Experiencing and EMDR. Both of these modalities utilize an inside-out approach, facilitating healing at a deep, somatic level that endures, rather than trying to convince yourself you are okay when you know you don’t feel it in your body. Plus, you never have to sacrifice one approach for another. We continue to incorporate other modalities, such as psychodynamic, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral interventions, into treatment.

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.
