About April

Dr. April Brewer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 14 years of clinical experience in behavioral health. She practices in Georgia and works with adults on relationship and family concerns among many other issues. Her work includes help for anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and the stresses that come with life changes.

Before moving into civilian practice, she served as a U.S. Air Force medic and held clinical roles with the U.S. Navy and Veterans Affairs. She has worked in courts, military family programs, DUI and drug court settings, and private practice. That mix shaped a practical, problem-focused approach to care.

Her training includes a Doctor of Behavioral Health from Arizona State University and two master’s degrees from Bellevue University. Those degrees inform her focus on integrated behavioral health and on helping people manage long-term health or stress-related problems.

In sessions she draws on client-centered techniques and evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral work, emotionally-focused strategies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. She uses these methods to help people clarify goals, test small changes, and build clearer patterns of communication and coping.

People often come to her for help with parenting and blended family issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, or problems with intimacy and communication. She also supports those facing chronic illness, caregiving strain, or the emotional impacts of major life transitions.

Therapeutic approaches available and how they translate online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals; online sessions let the therapist follow the client’s lead and work on issues like trust, boundaries, and communication. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks patterns into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses small experiments to test change; online work can include homework, thought records, and focused skill practice between sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how patterns of interaction and emotional responses shape relationships and can help with intimacy and attachment issues by working on emotional responses and new ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods fit the client’s goals, concerns, and preferences. That collaborative process may blend techniques to address communication, coping skills, or blended family challenges.

Specific session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter focused check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals use the session time to teach practical skills, rehearse conversations, and plan small experiments that clients can try between meetings.
