Getting to know April LeClair
Hi there, I'm April!
Hello, my name is April Leighton, and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with over two decades of experience, having earned my license in 1999. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and client-centered, adapting various techniques to meet each individual�s unique needs and goals. I specialize in working with children in grades 6-12, both within and outside of school settings, as well as with adults in inpatient and outpatient environments. My areas of focus include depression, anxiety, ADD/ADHD, trauma, adjustment challenges, emotional regulation, mindfulness, and marital therapy.
My approach
My approach to therapy is flexible and responsive, using a variety of therapeutic techniques to meet each client�s unique needs. As we build a strong therapeutic relationship and clarify treatment goals, I will introduce and discuss the techniques that may be most effective for our work together. Some of the methods I commonly incorporate include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Psychodynamic Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Strengths-Based Therapy.
My focus
I typically work with clients who experience a range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD, and emotional dysregulation. My clients often seek support in managing these conditions, which may impact various aspects of their lives, including school, work, and other daily responsibilities. I focus on providing structured, practical approaches that help clients develop emotional resilience and effective coping strategies, tailored to their unique needs and circumstances.
My communication style
In sessions with clients, I create an environment that is both professional and supportive, where every interaction feels focused yet personable. My approach is direct, ensuring clear communication and efficient progress, but it�s also adaptable to the client�s unique needs.
