April Quigley, LPC, LCPC - Therapist in Maine

About April

April Quigley, LPC, LCPC offers support for parents and individuals facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, grief, trauma, addiction, and relationship concerns. She frames work around practical steps and clear goals. Sessions focus on reducing distress and building skills that people can use at home.

April communicates plainly and aims to make therapy feel manageable for busy families. April draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to address thinking patterns and teach tools for everyday stress.

Background and approach

She also uses existential ideas to help people find meaning during life changes and motivational interviewing to strengthen commitment to change. The approach is person-centered and strength-based, meeting people where they are and prioritizing what matters most to them. Across her eleven years of experience she has practiced in multiple settings and holds licenses in Maine and Pennsylvania.

Her credentials are Licensed Professional Counselor - Pennsylvania (PA LPC PC007448) and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - Maine (ME LCPC CC5861). April works in English and connects with clients through several online formats. In sessions she helps identify realistic goals, develop coping strategies, and practice new habits between meetings.

Parents find the emphasis on simple, usable tools helpful when juggling family life. She encourages steady progress rather than quick fixes and supports clients through transitions and ongoing stress. Outside of work April enjoys gardening, hiking, baking, music, art, and sports.

These interests inform a down-to-earth style and a focus on balance between daily life and emotional well-being.

How April’s approaches translate to online sessions

April commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. She also draws on mindfulness therapy to teach simple breathing and attention exercises that reduce reactivity and help with parenting challenges and daily overwhelm.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. April will talk with clients about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan as needed. That collaborative process helps find what feels most useful and realistic for each person’s life.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging so parents can fit sessions around family schedules. These options make it easier to check in between activities, practice new skills in real life, and keep momentum when time is limited.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
