Getting to know April Sawyer
Hi there, I'm April!
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over ten years of mental health experience. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Alabama A&M University. I work with clients age 18 and older. Therapy is a profoundly personal process. During your search for the right therapist, remember you deserve a skilled professional with a style that suits your needs. Through understanding and validation, I strive to create an accepting, collaborative, and therapeutic environment while providing skills to achieve meaningful change.
My approach
My therapeutic approach is integrative, combining elements from various evidence-based therapies tailored to each client’s needs. Key components include the Person-Centered Approach, Empathy, and Unconditional Positive Regard—creating a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients feel safe to express themselves. I respect client autonomy, honoring their ability to direct therapy and make decisions about goals and processes. My approach also includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Informed Care, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy techniques.
My focus
I work with clients experiencing a range of mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, and stress-related disorders. I am comfortable treating Major Depressive Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and adjustment issues related to life transitions and relational difficulties. My approach supports individuals navigating personal, familial, and occupational challenges, helping them build resilience and improve well-being.
My communication style
In sessions, I create a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel comfortable and safe to express themselves.
