April is a guiding light and beings such care and gentleness that I’ve very much appreciated throughout my time with her.
She’s helped we rediscover what I’m capable of and I’m thankful everyday for her support.

I highly recommend April! She was an amazing counselor for the 4 months I worked with her. She did a great job breaking down information/tips/suggestions in a way that was helpful and understandable. I most enjoyed learning techniques to use when dealing with conflict in my marriage. It was especially cool that April would sometimes tell me what my husband might have been thinking (due to his reaction); and then while speaking with my husband he would say the same exact thing April had told me during our session! It was crazy because she has never spoken to my husband and was able to help me understand him and his reactions better. Thank you April for all of your dedication and help to prepare me to keep running for “my marathon” aka marriage!

Ms. Freeman is completely invested when I am speaking and sharing. She actively looks for ways to support me. Even if I may be down on myself about my progress, Ms. Freeman remains supportive and encouraging. I also appreciate that she makes time for me despite our extreme time differences.

April helped me through the most difficult time in my life thus far by providing insight, highlighting my patterns, helping me regain confidence, and consistently assuring me that I'm worthy of love and capable of loving someone else. She is patient and has a kind demeanor and has made me laugh on many occasions. She was a perfect fit and I would recommend her to anyone!

I had the pleasure of working with April for about a year.
Now that our time together has come to and end, I can’t help but wonder where I would be if I did not take the leap to try BetterHelp and be placed with April as my therapist. I am grateful to be where I am now with her help.
We started the year by setting goals of where I would like to be emotionally and mentally. Her support has allowed me to nurture my own healing in ways I once doubted. She often provided resources and other prompts that I still find helpful today. April is a caring and devoted therapist.
I would absolutely recommend.

I love how she speaks to me as if we are just having a conversation and not so much like we are patient and client.
She listens to me and is very honest with her feedback. Not letting me think too much of one thing if it isn't right. I appreciate her thoughtfulness and her candor. She is so encouraging and supportive she makes me truly believe in myself.

April has been here for me through some of the toughest parts of my young life. She has done a wonderful job of listening to me and supporting me through what I'm going through. It also feels nice to have a counselor who is not afraid to call you out on your negative or unhealthy behavior.

It is my great and sincere pleasure to recommend April. April has been an amazing therapist and a trustee confidant.
I started seeking therapy with April before coronavirus and I'm so lucky that I did, because she has just been so helpful in helping me with the transition of everything that's happening and even the transitions in my personal life.
She gives me a fresh perspective; I love her transparency and yet she professional 100% of the time. She's an excellent, listener however she knows when to interject.
April is not just a therapist, she is also a Healer and spiritual adviser in my eyes, because she manages to really get to the core of the person and you don't leave a session with her feeling unwell. You'll leave feeling renewed and well.
Give her a try, you will not regret it because she truly cares!
