We work with depression, anxiety, bipolar, PTSD, eating disorders, bereavement, borderline, autism, ADHD, addiction, sexual abuse, DV, medical illnesses, relationship problems, LGTBQ+, adjustment disorders and forensic cases.
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.

Change is a phenomenon that we all face. We will repeat painful patterns over and over in effort to avoid change. I believe that everyone has the power to create positive change in their lives and relationships. Often times a therapeutic alliance can facilitate that change in a safe environment. If you believe you are ready to grow as an individual, couple, or family, I would be honored to assist you in your journey.

Are you overwhelmed by or struggle to complete daily tasks? Do you often feel that you are not good enough or that other people don't value and respect you? Are you unorganized or messy? Is it difficult to stay focused/concentrate? Are you impulsive? Do you find yourself over/under reacting emotionally? Is it difficult to make friends or to even want to? If so, you are not alone. It's likely that the sense of "something is wrong" you feel comes from childhood issues. Others with these concerns benefit from therapy everyday. Please let me help.

Hello, my name is Dan Depasquale, LMSW. After realizing that becoming a teacher was not for me, and experiencing the impact that therapy had on my life, I decided to pursue social work and specialize in helping others, specifically pre teens and older struggling with anxiety, teens adjusting to adult life, and those struggling with the problematic use of modern technology (social media, smartphones, etc.). I have worked with adults of all ages and children as young as 5 years old. However most of my clinical experience has been with teenagers and up. Developing a good therapeutic relationship is particularly important.

Any individual, couple, or family making the decision to embark on therapy has made a brave step toward growth and change. Once rapport and safety is established, giving the self permission to be raw and vulnerable is what I strive for with clients. Feeling safe to explore discomfort and navigating different means of communication is at the heart of my work. The approach of curious exploration and demystification helps the individuals, couples and families that I work with resolve stressors related to anxiety, depression, grief, relational issues, work and academic influences, family dynamics, and LGBTQ issues.
