We are collectively facing such challenging times, so why go it alone? Whether it is you or your child in need of support, I'd like to be there for you. I specialize in working with adolescents to young adults, ages ranging from about fifteen to about twenty five - but am of course open to working with those outside of this age range. I currently have the most availability earlier in the day, and aim to accommodate college-age individuals with this time. Emerging adulthood is full of ups and downs - I'm here so that you do not have to walk that road alone.

Feeling anxious all the time is such a crippling feeling and can feel like there is no escaping it. Just when one anxious thought starts to go away, another one shows up and takes its place. It can feel like an endless cycle of racing thoughts, worry, and fear about anything and everything. It’s hard to know when the anxiety will be over especially living in an anxiety-inducing world that is constantly changing which in turn leads to more anxiety. If this sounds like you, you're not alone!

Have you lost interest in activities you used to find enjoyable, have trouble concentrating and making decisions, or find it hard to sleep at night due to racing thoughts? You may have noticed that you haven’t been feeling like yourself lately, and life has begun to feel overwhelming.

Maybe you woke up today & said, "shit, I really need to find a therapist." Maybe you've said that many mornings. Perhaps you find yourself repeating the same cycles and wanting to stop, yet you keep spinning. Cycles of all types - anxiety, depression, self-sabotage, addiction, trauma and more. It leaks into different areas of your life - work, relationships, self-esteem...and it’s exhausting. Maybe you feel stretched thin, like butter scraped over too much bread. You want to feel more at peace, to have better relationships, and to understand more yourself. Luckily, therapy can help get you there.

We don’t get to choose some things that happen to us as children, and we can grow up in environments that fall short of supporting the unique needs we might have had. If your story involves childhood abuse, neglect, abandonment, bullying, family problems or other trauma, and you find yourself still impacted by these things as an adult, please reach out. I would love to help you move past the things that happened to you so that you can make room for all the wonderful possibilities life holds for you. You may not have had a choice then, but you have a choice now.

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.

No new appts available rn. I believe that to grow and heal, you must first learn about/become more aware of yourself and how your past experiences and family dynamics have shaped you and influenced your present issues. Of equal importance is our therapeutic relationship, which will be a nurturing one. We gather the unique pieces to your puzzle, and eventually fit these pieces together to form a complete picture. We'll then have a better, clearer understanding of who you are, "why you are the way you are", and what you need to do or change to heal and be happier. My approach is relational, psychodynamic, and empathic. We are a team!

It is in the depths of our psyche where fear and longing reside. We use tricks and masks to defend against knowing ourselves and yet yearn to be known, long to be recognized. The journey to discovery consists not only in what we say about ourselves but how we are listened to. It is in this unique place of psychoanalysis where the known and unknown, the conscious and the unconscious meet. Once we start to listen to the stories we tell about ourselves, and are heard, the mind is opened to a more expansive self and healing can begin.

Anxiety looks different in every child, but no matter what form it takes, it can be excruciating for both the child and the parent. Whether your child withdraws to their room and won’t talk, gets angry and refuses to make an effort, works three times as hard as any other child and still feels inadequate, or seems to need you so much they can’t function on their own, knowing how to help is so hard. The good news is that no matter what anxiety looks like on the surface, there are evidence-based treatments that can really help.
