Your therapist
Meet Aunt April — the cool aunt with a therapy license.
April Smith is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in Cary, NC. She's direct, warm, and genuinely invested in helping you figure things out — without the clinical coldness or the generic worksheets.
What we can work on together
Real issues, real support. No clinical jargon, no one-size-fits-all approach.
The anxiety that won't quit
Racing thoughts at 2am, dread before every email, the constant feeling that something's about to go wrong. Yeah, we can work on that.
Quarter-life crisis? Valid.
Your 20s are supposed to be the best years of your life — so why does it feel like you're failing at them? Spoiler: you're not.
Job stress & career anxiety
Imposter syndrome, burnout, fear of being laid off, not knowing what you even want to do — work stuff is real stuff.
Relationship stuff
Friends, family, partners, situationships — the people in your life can be your biggest source of stress. Let's untangle it.
Depression & the low periods
When getting out of bed feels like a full-time job. No toxic positivity here — just real support.
Feeling lost & unmotivated
Not sure who you are or what you want? That's more common than you think, and it's absolutely something we can work through.
Meet your therapist
Hi, I'm Aunt April.
Think of me as the cool aunt who also happens to have a therapy license. I'm a licensed clinical mental health therapist based in Cary, NC — and I'm not here to give you a worksheet and send you on your way. I work with young adults who are smart, self-aware, and still kind of struggling. My approach is direct, warm, and judgment-free. Think less "lie on the couch and talk about your childhood" and more "let's actually figure this out together."
