About April
April Greene is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 14 years of experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and related concerns such as grief, addictions, ADHD, and low self-esteem.
Her approach is trauma-informed and practical. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in regular sessions. April aims to help clients recognize patterns that keep problems going and learn tools to respond differently when emotions run high.
Sessions focus on clear goals and concrete skills. Clients can expect to learn techniques for managing anger and frustration, coping with overwhelming feelings, and improving communication in relationships. She also works on stress management and techniques for mood regulation when depression or bipolar symptoms are present.
April adapts conversations and treatment plans to each person's situation. She explains ideas in straightforward language and practices therapeutic skills during sessions so people can try them between meetings. Her background includes prior licensure in New York before relocating to Florida, which informs her experience across settings.
People who want a direct, skill-oriented approach often choose her when anger or recurring emotional patterns are getting in the way. She helps people take practical steps to reduce reactivity and build steadier responses over time.
How CBT, DBT and trauma work in online sessions
April uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thought and behavior patterns that increase anger and anxiety, then practices alternative ways of thinking and acting. CBT is focused on concrete steps and homework that people can try between sessions.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. DBT techniques are useful when strong emotions or relationship conflicts make it hard to respond calmly.
Choosing the best approach is collaborative. April will discuss goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up, then recommend which methods to emphasize. The plan can change as progress is made and as practical needs shift.
