About April

April Lymas is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) based in Michigan with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship concerns, family stress, grief, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. April aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and clear for people who are unsure where to begin.

She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. April helps clients name what matters most, identify small steps, and build on strengths they already have.

Background and approach

Conversations are direct and rooted in real-life goals rather than jargon or long lectures. April draws on several established approaches to shape therapy sessions. She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thinking patterns.

She integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to help people access and talk about strong emotions in a way that feels contained and useful. The Gottman Method also influences her work with relationship struggles, offering specific skills for communication and managing conflict. April combines these methods to match each person’s situation instead of following one fixed plan.

Her focus includes caregiver stress, family problems, forgiveness, finding life purpose, self-love, and issues young adults face. April aims to support steady progress so people leave sessions with clear next steps and practical strategies they can try between meetings.

Online support

Working online with Gottman, CBT, and EFT approaches

April uses approaches from the Gottman Method, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to shape online sessions. The Gottman Method offers concrete communication and conflict-management skills to help people handle relationship tensions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that cause distress and testing small changes to improve daily functioning. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name strong emotions so they can be expressed more safely and understood better by others.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. April will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and together they decide which techniques to try first. She adapts methods over time based on what is helping and what feels comfortable for each person.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs an audio-only check-in. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options aim to make consistent care reachable and flexible for different schedules and needs.
