Getting to know April Barker-Casey

Hi, and thanks for visiting my page. You've come to the right place for help! My name is April Barker- Casey. I am an independently listened social worker in the state of OH, where I have over 25 years of professional experience. I believe that you are the expert in your life and that you have strengths that will assist you in overcoming challenges. I’m here to help you manage symptoms related to stress, anxiety, trauma, and abuse so that you can thrive in the face of obstacles.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I use techniques from Cognitive Behavioral and Cognitive Processing therapies as well as Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused methods. Therapy modalities are chosen based on the client’s needs. I work well with clients seeking relief from symptoms of stress including anxiety and depression. Often, those clients have histories of trauma. I am comfortable delving into those histories and helping people heal.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

During the first session, we will introduce ourselves and I will ask a bunch of questions to determine what you are seeking from therapy. We will decide together if we are a good match and develop at least one goal to begin our work. I believe that the session belongs to the client. Your goal is mine, and it is my pleasure to help you reach the goals you identify. We will develop goals early in the process and revisit them often in order to maintain focus.
