About April

I am grateful for the experiences I’ve had working as a therapist for over 25 years. I am passionate about my work and consider it an honor when clients share their lives with me. I have learned a lot about people over the years - from personal experience, professional training and research, but mostly from my clients. In a supportive, encouraging, compassionate, honest and safe environment, I will join with you to help you look at the big picture. What’s going on? Where are you stuck? What are YOUR goals? I believe in not taking ourselves too seriously. Laughter is powerful. Do we make mistakes? Absolutely! Everybody does. I look forward to speaking with you about your life – where you are and where you want to be, your goals, your pain, your dreams... let’s do this together! “NOTHING CHANGES IF NOTHING CHANGES.”
