Message from Therapist

Are you struggling with your mental health, your relationships, spirituality, and daily living activities? Are you and your partner constantly arguing and not connecting? Do you need someone to talk to and find some resources and solutions?

I specialize in anxiety, depression, relationships, communication, trauma, and sexual intimacy issues.  I offer free resources and information through my website and through my podcast called "Bringing Intimacy Back".  I will offer you effective coping tools so you can reach your goals and purpose.  As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Life Coach, and Relationship Therapist, I can help you with your struggles.

I also offer TeleMental Health and Online Counseling services for individuals, couples, and families. 

I am licensed in the states of Florida, Wisconsin, New Jersey and New York.


Dr. April Brown's Specialties

Anxiety and Depression Counseling and Relationship Therapy are my areas of expertise.  I believe my role is to help you see the faith, hope, and love within yourself.  I utilize cognitive-behavioral, solution-focus, and acceptance commitment therapy to help uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating.

You Are Not Alone

You and I will work together in an empathetic and nonjudgmental atmosphere to better understand and resolve the struggles in your life.  I will support you on your journey through this struggle so that one day you will be able to fully enjoy your journey of life.  In fact, hope, insight, relief, motivation, and empowerment are just some of the benefits of my counseling sessions.   Thus, if you're looking for a change and you want extra support and guidance through challenging situations, please contact me.   I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

More About April Brown, Ed.D, LMHC, NCC, DCC

I grew up Catholic all my life.  I went to Catholic Schools from K -12 grade in Charleston, S.C. and in Palm Bay, Florida.  I am an active member of Church of the Resurrection in Fort Myers, FL.

I am a culturally diverse Catholic Counselor and I believe that counseling is helping others carry their crosses in life.  I love helping people see the faith, hope, and love within themselves and empowering them to face life’s challenges. Hence, I try to help individuals integrate and coordinate their resources within their systems.  Therefore, in helping people become aware of who they are and what resources are available for them, it increases their probability of making effective decisions for themselves.  Thus, as a counselor, I try to provide an empathetic atmosphere for my clients to realize that they are not alone in their struggles and they have interpersonal strength to change themselves.

I specialize in anxiety and depression counseling and relationship therapy.  I also love working with teenagers.  Some other areas are emotionally supportive animals (ESA) documentation and distance counseling (telemental health services).

My website - Dr. April Brown's Website
