About April
April DeJesus is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in New York. She brings nine years of experience helping people manage stress and anxiety. She aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can name difficult feelings and think about next steps.
April focuses on concerns such as relationships, family strain, grief, and self-esteem. She also attends to infidelity issues, matters affecting veterans and armed forces, and multicultural concerns.
Background and approach
Her work centers on clear, practical conversations rather than jargon. In sessions she listens first and then helps people choose manageable goals. Conversations often include identifying stress patterns, building coping skills, and improving communication.
April emphasizes small, real-world changes clients can try between meetings. Her style is straightforward and warm. She encourages questions and checks in about what’s working.
Progress is tracked through patient steps rather than quick fixes. April offers several online formats to fit different needs. She aims to make scheduling easier and to match the method of contact to each person’s routine.
Taking that first step starts with a short questionnaire and a scheduled session.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Evidence-based techniques guide April's online work. One common method focuses on identifying stress and anxiety patterns and teaching practical coping skills to reduce their impact. This helps people notice triggers and practice small changes to feel steadier day to day.Another approach centers on relationship and communication skills. Sessions include role-play and concrete strategies to improve conversations, repair trust after infidelity, and set clearer boundaries. These techniques aim to make interactions more manageable and less reactive.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. April will talk with each person about goals and preferences and try methods that fit their life. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people use body language and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick skill reminders, and support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
