Hi There, I'm April Kitchens, LCSW I practice as a Licensed Therapist in the states of Texas as well as Mississippi. I am passionate about helping others during struggles in their lives. I have 10+ years of experience assisting others during some of the most challenging times of theirs lives. I have an extensive history in working with children, adolescence as well as young adults. We live in a world that we are in constant "go mode". Many of us feel as though we can't slow down long enough to process our life. The constant chaos along with trauma that many of us carry around can effect how to step forward in life. Im here to help. I want to see you break through to reclaim your tomorrows.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My clients can always expect a kind disposition along with a honest and upfront experience. I believe that you are here for a reason and it is to make sure you have the support you need! You deserve the best experience.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I specialize in ERP, CBT and ACT Therapy. I treat OCD, anxiety, depression and other anxiety based diagnoses. ERP has been shown to be the most effective treatment for OCD as well as other anxiety disorders. Im dedicated to helping others recover from overwhelming OCD symptoms, anxiety, depression and other lasting effects from past and present traumas, so you can be you again.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
One of the best ways that any therapist can help you is by teaching you how to manage through anxiety with exposure therapy (ERP). ERP is one of the best therapeutic approaches when in comes to moving your life forward. ERP is a technique, once learned, that you can take with you all throughout your life and find you every time life gets to be too much to bare.
