About April

April Quigley is a licensed counselor who draws on a person-centered, holistic perspective to support people navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and related life challenges such as grief, addiction, and parenting difficulties.

Background and approach

She frames therapy as a collaborative process that aims to address underlying causes of distress rather than only relieving surface symptoms, helping clients develop practical coping skills and insight over time.

Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with mindfulness-informed and emotionally focused techniques to help loosen the grip of difficult emotions and promote balance between mind, body, and spirit. April emphasizes strength-based work and skill building, guiding clients to identify realistic goals and cultivate healthier patterns.

With 11 years of professional experience and licensure as an LPC and LCPC, she offers care from Maine and communicates in English. Outside of clinical work she enjoys gardening, hiking, baking, and engaging with music and the arts, which inform a grounded, relatable therapeutic presence.

How April’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

April commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people recognize and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, which can be especially useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy to cultivate present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, a helpful complement for emotional regulation and coping with distress. These approaches aim to teach practical skills that clients can practice between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic work, and April approaches that choice collaboratively. She will discuss goals, preferences, and needs with each person and adapt techniques as progress unfolds so treatment stays aligned with what is most helpful for the individual.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and fit therapy into varied schedules. These formats make it easier to access consistent support from Maine, accommodate different communication styles, and practice skills in the settings where challenges and routines actually occur.
