April Akers

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


I've built my practice around a simple but powerful idea: that understanding yourself — really understanding yourself — is one of the most transformative things a person can do. I specialize in supporting people through depression, anxiety, life transitions, substance use, mood disorders, adjustment disorder, and end-of-life concerns. That last one might surprise you. End of life is one of the most profound and underserved areas in mental health, and I consider it an honor to walk alongside people and families navigating that terrain. Across all of my work, I bring an educational lens — I don't just want to help you feel better in the moment, I want to help you understand yourself well enough that you can keep growing long after our sessions end. My approach is grounded in CBT and mindfulness, and it reaches toward something bigger: the full picture of who you are — emotionally, physically, and spiritually.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fairfax

Finding the right therapist in Fairfax, VA starts with getting clear on what kind of support you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, ADHD, or trauma, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern can make a real difference. Common provider types include licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — each with different training and scope of practice. If you need medication management alongside talk therapy, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner may be the right fit.

With 3095 mental health providers across Northern Virginia — from Fairfax to Falls Church, Reston, and beyond — narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most: a provider's specialty, whether they offer in-person or virtual sessions, and whether their schedule works with yours. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach and decide if they're someone you'd feel comfortable working with.

Therapy in the Fairfax area can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
