Hi there, I'm April!

My goal is to guide you through your counseling journey by helping you recognize your strengths, boost your self-esteem, and develop healthy coping skills to manage life's challenges. I bring energy, compassion, and professionalism to every session. I specialize in depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, grief, and life transitions.

My focus

I specialize in depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, PTSD, grief, and life transitions. I provide individual and couples counseling for those navigating relationship challenges, processing difficult experiences, or seeking to build healthier coping skills and stronger self-esteem.

My approach

I blend evidence-based methods to tailor our work together, honoring your pace and goals. I'm trauma-informed and trained in EMDR to help you process difficult memories and reduce distress. My background includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Strengths-Based Therapy.
