April is fantastic at hearing and reflecting my concerns and guiding me to identify feelings and motivations. She gives me space to heal at my own pace, and encourages me to dig deeper when I am ready but may be having difficulty getting to the root of something. Sometimes there are days when we don’t go into big or deep issues, and she’s taught me that it’s okay to have lighter therapy days too. I look forward to our weekly meetings because I know I’m going to feel supported and considered no matter what we discuss.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She is AMAZING. April is so kind, patient, wise, and thoughtful. She's such a great therapist and I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. She's the first therapist I've met that makes me feel heard and understood without an ounce of judgement from her.
I really appreciate how April respects my take on my life. I have a lot of experience doing therapy, and she accepts my expertise on my illness and my symptoms, and we go from there. I don't have to explain everything, she just seems to understand.
