Getting to know April Bodily

Hi there, I'm April! My name is April and I have been a nurse for 18 years. I have worked as an Emergency Room Trauma Nurse, Family Nurse Practitioner/Primary Care provider, and Women's Health provider and have provided care for our nation's Veterans. I am passionate about providing compassionate, patient-focused mental health care making sure that everyone feels heard, valued, and respected. My approach Finding the right mental health medication is a very individualized process and I believe that it is important that the client is open and honest about how a medication is making them feel. I want to know about what has AND has not worked in the past so that together we can find the best possible medication regimen. Let's try and use the least amount of medication (s) possible, to treat the most possible symptoms for the shortest amount of time needed. My focus I am here to help clients of all walks of life. I truly love helping others and believe that being a nurse was a calling placed on my life at a young age. I frequently work with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, BPAD, AUD, insomnia, PTSD, panic disorder, and other mood disorders. My communication style Listening is critical. So many of my clients tell me that their prior clinician "did not listen to them". It is important to me that each client I meet is able to tell their story so that I can find out how to best help them with their struggles. Sometimes that includes mental health medication and sometimes it does not. My journey to therapy While working for many years as a Family Nurse Practitioner I became frustrated that I could not secure proper mental health services for my clients, especially Veterans. Rather than continue to complain, I decided to do something about it and go back to school again for a post-masters certification as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner.
