Before becoming a counselor she completed a degree in Scientific Inquiry and a bachelor’s thesis in neuroscience studying brain signals that influence eating and behavior. She also worked as a research scientist and educator in the natural health field and has studied cultural diversity and holistic health approaches for more than three decades. Her practice philosophy is summarized by the motto "Kindness Matters." April emphasizes a client-centered stance, helping people make choices based on their own knowledge and values rather than offering judgment or direct advice. She integrates approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, narrative and brief solution-focused work, and periodic assessment interviews to chart progress. April is an active member of the Texas Counseling Association and places a strong emphasis on ethical practice and ongoing learning.
April conducts remote sessions that reflect a client-centered philosophy combined with practical therapeutic skills. In a client-centered frame she focuses on building a collaborative relationship that supports self-exploration and decision making, using assessment interviews over time to monitor needs and strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify patterns of thought and behavior and to develop concrete strategies for change. Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are available to help with emotion regulation, present-moment skills, and distress tolerance.
Clients who work with April can expect a collaborative process that emphasizes their values and existing knowledge while offering structured techniques when appropriate. She adapts the balance of talk, skills, and reflective work to fit each person’s goals.
