April Akers

April Akers

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Substance Abuse Treatment Practitioner with a PhD, and I've spent ten years working with people who are genuinely tired of feeling like they should have figured this out by now. I work virtually with clients throughout Virginia, and I take a different approach than most therapists: I consider myself part clinician, part teacher. My goal isn't just for you to feel better in session — it's for you to leave understanding yourself well enough that you don't need me forever. I work with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, substance use, trauma, life transitions, and end-of-life concerns. I'm also a proud affirming provider for LGBTQ+ clients and believe good therapy should be accessible to everyone — which is why I've built in morning, afternoon, and evening availability.

I’m glad that we’ve found each other. My name is Arianne and I've been partnering with individuals navigating the challenges and working towards the life each person hopes for themselves. When life feels like it is too much to handle, you might know what you need to do, but actually starting can feel scary. It's hard to move forward when you're stuck in negative thoughts. You understand your struggles and story better than anyone else and I am here to work alongside you to restore your calm.

Amanda Palacios

Therapist

Virtual • Virginia


Hi there! I’m an LCSW in VA with my MSW from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, and my BFA from The College of New Jersey.

My practice primarily focuses on young adults and early-middle adults who are seeking to navigate through anxiety, depression, stress, various relationship/interpersonal challenges, and life transitions. While I have experience in adolescent and family systems, my current work is centered on supporting adults as they make meaningful changes in their lives. I have a collaborative and real-world approach to therapy. I think a lot about therapeutic fit; I truly believe the right therapist for the right person actually makes a huge difference.

My style is warm, flexible, and rooted in evidence-based interventions. I work best with people who are open-minded to the process and willing to explore what change may look and feel like. It is okay if you don’t know where to start yet.

Outside of work, I’m creative, adventurous, animal-loving, and enjoy being in the present.
