Intentional Healing
Aprille is a Master’s level clinical mental health LPCC eager to provide quality mental health care for her clients. She believes the healing process is holistic; mentally, physically, and spiritually. She intends to guide each client toward wholeness, healing, and hope. With a person-centered approach, healing and growth can be obtained through empathy and collaboration in the counseling room. As Aprille’s client, you will gain skills and breakthrough strongholds, finding new freedom. This will allow hope to permeate through the cracks of suffering to create a new sense of wholeness.
Your Story
When we find the courage to seek help, we need a safe place to land. Each client needs to experience a place where they are comfortable to tell their personal story. Our stories are sacred and deserve care and compassion.
Philosophy
Aprille’s existential Christian worldview shapes her therapeutic lens. She values operating from an integrative framework and individualizing the care toward each client's symptoms with her holistic approach. A therapeutic relationship that aligns the client toward intentional healing is essential. When we experience attachment wounds in our early childhood development, maladaptive relationships and behaviors can negatively impact us. Through life experiences and trauma, suffering can occur. This suffering may hinder our meaning, purpose, and freedom to live a hope-filled life. There is healing in allowing shame stories to be in the light, finding inner truth, learning new coping skills, and emotionally processing our story. Aprille would be honored to walk with you toward renewed hope.

In Her Free Time
Aprille loves spending time with her husband, kids, and pets. She is a nature lover always up for a challenging hike, a walk in nature, or another outdoor adventure with friends. Her favorite relaxing activities include writing prayers and poems, reading and listening to podcasts, volunteering to coach kids, calming soul care practice and deepening her faith.
Faith
Aprille humbly walks with Christ, seeking His hand daily (Psalm 32:4). She knows Him as her protection and hiding place (Psalm 32:7) and adores the freedom that comes from His love and grace every new morning (Lamentations 3:23).
She desires to meet her clients wherever they are (or are not) in their spiritual walk. Her ability to honor her client's journey and allow space in the counseling room to question, explore, and deepen faith is collaborative.
Perspective on Yoga & Faith
For Aprille, Yoga has been an evolving practice. From a therapeutic fitness and mental health perspective, she takes the approach of soul care instead of the the northern India approach. She welcomes the practice of yoga to heal the body and learn to connect the mind, body, and spirit with Christian prayer and flexible mobility movements. As her faith journey has evolved, she uses the term soul care to define her practice of calming the mind, meditatively praying, and healing movement or therapeutic mobility poses.
