Anxiety, depression and struggles from life challenges is not uncommon. I use modalities such as Exposure Therapy (ERP), ACT and CBT to help you get your life back. So why do we make it so uncommon to reach out for help? You no longer have to wait to feel "normal" again. Hi, My name is April Kitchens, LCSW and I am here to be the support that you need. I have 11 plus years of experience working with adults, children and adolescence who are in need of support in challenging situations such as OCD, Anxiety, depression and more. Weeknight and Weekend scheduling available.

***Teletherapy***Phone/Video Sessions and Messaging Plans Available*** I am currently accepting new clients across the state of Texas for teletherapy. As a therapist my goal is to join you on your journey, provide support, offer tools, and empower you to meet your goals. My style is non-judgmental and exploratory. I will be direct and honest with you, challenge you when necessary, and always strive to bring out your greatest potential.

You can visualize your ideal self, yet anxiety, trauma, and negative habits are holding you back. I have been there and I understand the struggle, but your actions and thoughts are all behavior and they can be changed. With my unique approach as a behavior analyst and trauma-informed coach, we can collaboratively devise a tailored plan for meaningful change. While traditional talk therapy has its merits, I'm not a therapist—I am a behavioral scientist and coach. If you've hit a plateau in your self-help journey or feel stuck in your current behaviors, let's explore a more structured, action-based path to healing and growth.

Now accepting new clients! My primary therapeutic goal is to approach each individual in a unique way. While helping clients develop healthy coping strategies and achieve personal growth and positive change, I provide a safe and non-judgmental environment. As a therapist, I am passionate about helping clients in coping with depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, stress, relationship difficulties, divorce, parenting, grief and loss, abuse and neglect, domestic violence, addictions, bipolar disorders, and more. I see pre-teens, adolescents, families, and adults struggling with behavioral, emotional, or relational issues.

You're an adult woman who's doing it all while feeling disconnected and unsure of what you really want. You feel confused by your dissatisfaction with your primary relationships or your career - because you have a great family, good job, good supports, etc. And, no one really wants to hear about it, often calling you ridiculous instead. You probably find yourself wondering, "What's wrong with me?" or "Why can't I get this right?" If you're looking for unbiased support from someone outside your family and community, I'm here to tell you you're not ridiculous AND I want to hear all about it!

Do you often feel weighed down by life's pressures or feelings of anxiety?” or, “If you find it difficult to make friends and experience loneliness regularly as a result, come talk to me. Together, we will work on strategies that allow you to address the root causes of your difficulties and build meaningful connections.”

Our thoughts hold a lot of power. When anxious thoughts take over your brain space, it leaves little room for the things you love. Negative self talk and unrealistic perfectionistic tendencies can leave us feeling like we're not enough and fearful of fulfilling our passions. Your confidence, your friendships, your relationship…all of them are impacted by the narrative inside our brains. I’m here to empower you as we work together to uncover things that no longer serve you, so you can regain your freedom and build the life you want.

Were you abused, neglected, and traumatized? Were you raised by a tiger mom? Did you raise yourself and everyone else? Do you feel frozen, numb, and disconnected from your body? Do you feel like there's something wrong with you? Do you have a need to be perfect? Do you feel anxious even during downtime? Are you always running and doing and still feel it's not enough? Is food your only friend? Yet, on the outside, you look like the most put-together person. If only people knew what was on the inside.

My treatment approach is based on over 10 years of providing testing and treatment services. In every case, my primary treatment goal is to help my clients develop the necessary skills--both thinking and behaving-- to improve their health, academic performance, day-to-day functioning and sense of well-being and self-efficacy. I do not fix my clients but focus all my efforts toward helping them to fix or better manage their problems themselves. This is done through fostering client strengths.

Do you feel stuck in your relationship? Do you miss the sense of aliveness you once felt? Perhaps you’re having difficulty overcoming various sexual challenges. Does performance anxiety, frustration with your orgasm, or sexual pain stop you from fully experiencing pleasure? Has it caused tension within your relationship? Maybe you’ve read books, articles, or even consulted with your doctor, but nothing works. You’re not alone. I’ve built my career, one which I feel so passionately about, around helping people just like you.

I am a psychotherapist who has been in private practice for 30 years. Because of the longevity of my work, I have encountered a wide variety of people of all ages and problems. I believe in the dignity and value of each individual person and treat people with empathy, compassion, warmth, and kindness. I give sustained attention during a session and believe that people can solve their own problems with some objective structure and feedback. For my clients' convenience I maintain two offices. Weekend and evening appointments are available.

My primary therapeutic focus is to help children, adults and families work through identified problems as quickly as possible in order to achieve their stated goals. I respect each family's unique story and approach the therapeutic relationship without judgment or preconceived ideas. Throughout the process of therapy, a supportive and safe space is created where families and children can identify events, issues and behavioral patterns they would like to change. My aim is to help you achieve lasting positive results.

I am a bilingual English and Spanish speaking therapist that provides counseling and employment services. I offer individual, group, family, and couples therapy to children, adolescents, and adults.

All services are provided in both English and Spanish.

Therapy is an investment in your personal growth and a dedication to your overall well-being. Therapy can help us identify our strengths and personal successes, and help to explore our areas of growth. I work to provide a trusting, warm, open, and supportive relationship for my clients. Understanding our past and our current life patterns fosters internal growth, so we can understand ourselves on a deeper level, create emotional well-being, and move towards contentment with ourselves and our lives. The therapeutic relationship is a partnership between the client and the therapist, and is based on trust, and respect.

Therapy is a partnership that grows in an atmosphere of safety and acceptance. It allows one to rediscover the parts of selves which may have been disowned; to learn new skills to handle grief and distress; to build healthier, more nurturing relationships; and to gain access to one's own direct experience of the world. I nurture this collaboration with clients and recognize that within each of us there exists a deeper wisdom that, given adequate support, naturally moves toward healing and integration.
