About April
April Mullen is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Washington. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, identity questions, self-esteem struggles, and relationship or intimacy-related challenges. April brings 13 years of experience to sessions and speaks English.
Her style is direct and respectful. She listens first and adapts conversations to each person's needs. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer thinking, and building skills to manage daily pressures.
April uses a mix of approaches depending on the concern.
Background and approach
She draws on existential ideas to look at meaning and life choices. She also uses attachment-based work to map relationship patterns and client-centered methods to keep the work grounded in the client's perspective. In sessions she may use tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and from dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills.
These tools are offered as ways to try different strategies and see what helps most in real life. People often come to April for help after loss, during major life changes, or when coping with shame, guilt, or isolation. She also supports those with kink-affirming concerns, attachment wounds, and compassion fatigue.
The focus is on practical change and on helping people find more choice in how they live.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
April blends existential therapy and attachment-based work to address core life questions and relationship patterns. Existential therapy helps people talk through meaning, purpose, and the choices they face, which can be useful during midlife shifts, grief, or when identity feels unsettled. Attachment-based therapy focuses on how early relationship styles shape current connections and communication, helping people notice patterns and try new ways of relating.She approaches treatment collaboratively. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan as progress is made or circumstances change.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues are helpful. Phone sessions can be a lighter option when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions, get brief support, or fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care while balancing life demands.
