Your road to being emotionally well is the number one priority for me from our very first conversation. I focus on working collaboratively with you to become your best self, live your best life, and have healthier relationships. Clients that I work with feel safe, comfortable, and supported to explore their concerns. Together we will identify and work on goals targeting the change that you are seeking. I have helped countless individuals I work with regain focus on growth instead of feeling stuck. You will find balance so you can get back to a place of peace instead of being in pieces.

I am autistic, and a neurodiversity-affirming professional. This means I do not seek to change others, but focus on strength and adaptation, not assimilation. We can dig into life's fundamental questions: Who am I, what do I want, why am I here, and who should journey with me? I am not a therapist, but instead, I specialize in consulting and coaching those who want to develop healthier relationships with themselves and others. Our work together might focus on recovering from past mistakes, understanding how we came to those mistakes, and learning to make different choices and decisions in the future. It might be learning to say no.

I have 10 years of experience working with children and teens ranging from preschool aged to high school as a School Social Worker. Through my career, I have developed a strong passion to not only advocate for individuals, but to also incorporate wellness and mindfulness into my practice.

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.

A lot of focus on people with anxiety and depression disorder. Mood swings or other emotional midsections that are causing some level of conflict in their family, social, educational or financial life. A majority of the people I work vary in what they know about themselves from just knowing somethings and wanting to fix it to others being forced by a friend, family member or just some stranger that passed along my name to someone. Range of symptoms from minor to discharges from high levels of care.
