April Quigley, LPC, LCPC

April Quigley approaches therapy from a holistic, person-centered perspective that aims to address the roots of suffering rather than only its symptoms. She helps clients explore the balance between mind, body, and spirit, combining emotionally focused techniques with cognitive and mindfulness-based strategies to reduce the intensity of difficult feelings and promote inner calm. April blends practical skill building with deeper insight work so that people can develop healthy alternatives for coping with life stressors and transitions.

She is particularly committed to helping people who are experiencing emotional distress, depression, anxiety, transitional stress, trauma, and relationship challenges. In collaboration with each person she meets, April helps identify clear goals, cultivates understanding about patterns that contribute to distress, and supports the development of sustainable coping skills that can be applied in everyday life.

April has worked in the counseling field for more than 17 years and has been independently licensed for 10 years. She takes a strength-based stance, meeting people where they are and working toward lasting growth through realistic, achievable steps. Outside of her clinical work, she enjoys gardening, hiking, baking, and participating in music, art, and sports.

April holds professional counseling credentials including LPC and LCPC and also maintains a National Certified Counselor (NCC) credential. LPC stands for Licensed Professional Counselor and LCPC designates a licensed clinical professional counselor. NCC is a national certification awarded by the National Board for Certified Counselors.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

April integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy into online work to help clients create concrete coping skills and shift unhelpful thought patterns. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to stress and mood difficulties, which can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and everyday problem solving. Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical attention and acceptance practices that support emotion regulation and present-moment awareness, useful for reducing reactivity and building resilience.

April also draws on Motivational Interviewing when clients are exploring change or facing ambivalence. This collaborative, nonjudgmental method helps people clarify their own motivations and build commitment to goals, which can be especially useful for habit change and recovery work.

Finding the right combination of approaches is a collaborative process. April will work with each person to determine which techniques and goals feel most aligned with their needs and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and for how people prefer to communicate. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and access licensed professionals from familiar settings.
