Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, stress, or relationship difficulties begin affecting how you feel about yourself and connect with others. You may find yourself overthinking, shutting down, feeling emotionally exhausted, struggling to communicate, or repeating patterns you wish you could change. You may also be worried about your child or teenager and unsure how best to help.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist with more than 14 years of clinical experience working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I received my MSW from Hunter College School of Social Work. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, relationship and family conflict, self-esteem concerns, everyday stress, and life transitions.

I also have a particular interest in helping women who struggle with people-pleasing, codependency, boundaries, or consistently putting others’ needs before their own. I provide therapy in English and Spanish.

I'm April — a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has worked alongside people in some of the hardest chapters of their lives: crisis moments in emergency settings, school hallways with overwhelmed teenagers, and outpatient rooms where families were trying to figure out how to be in the same room again. That range of experience has shaped how I work. I know that anxiety looks different in a 15-year-old than it does in a 40-year-old. I know that couples who love each other can still feel like strangers. And I know that healing isn't linear — it takes time, trust, and the right support.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and marital concerns, family conflict, parenting challenges, life transitions, and emotional regulation. I work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. For clients who want it, I also offer faith-integrated counseling that weaves Christian beliefs and values into the therapeutic process — thoughtfully, ethically, and at your pace.

Sometimes life feels overwhelming, and figuring out where to begin can be the hardest part. I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, emotional challenges, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. Whether you're feeling stuck, struggling to manage emotions, or simply wanting to better understand yourself, therapy can be a place to start. Together, we'll explore what's getting in the way, recognize your strengths, and build practical skills to help you move forward with greater confidence and purpose.

Reaching out for support isn't always easy, especially when you're used to handling everything on your own. You deserve a space where you can show up as yourself, without judgment or pressure to have it all figured out. I bring compassion, authenticity, and a little humor into our work together. When you're ready, I'd be glad to connect.
