April Tsang Bonds

I’m an LCSW, veteran, and mom of three, and I understand that life can be messy, complicated, and sometimes really hard. My professional background includes psychiatric, medical, and domestic violence settings, but I also bring the perspective that comes from being human and navigating life’s challenges. I especially enjoy working with women experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, motherhood, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My hope is to offer a space where you can exhale, feel understood, and know you don’t have to have it all figured out.

My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. I want therapy to feel like a place where you can be yourself—not like you have to say the “right” thing. We’ll work together to understand what’s keeping you stuck and find practical ways to help you move forward. I draw from CBT, DBT, and ACT-informed strategies, while tailoring our work to what feels most helpful for you. Your values and beliefs matter, and when meaningful to you, we can explore how faith or spirituality connects with what you’re experiencing.

Our first session is really about getting to know you. We’ll talk about what’s been going on, what brought you to therapy, and what you’re hoping might feel different. There’s no pressure to tell me everything at once or have the “right” words. We’ll take things at a pace that feels comfortable, and together we’ll start figuring out what would be most helpful for you moving forward.
