You can be grateful for your life and still want something different.
Maybe you're carrying more than you let on. Functional on the outside, depleted, barely holding on, and triggered on the inside. Overthinking, overgiving, in some version of relationship drama, getting pulled into other people’s emotions, or stuck in your own overwhelm, stress, anxiety, depression, or just plain old-fashioned fear.
Maybe you’re doing all the things and wondering why you don’t feel better—or why so little has changed.
.
Maybe you’ve come a long way, understand yourself better than you ever have, and still know there are things that just aren’t working.
You're not broken. You're human. And you don't have to figure it all out alone.
You don’t need another pep talk. You don't need to try harder or keep pushing on. Sometimes you need a different way forward—and a place to actually talk deeply and work through it.
That’s what therapy can be.
Feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck
Struggle with boundaries or people-pleasing
Want to heal from past experiences
Are ready to break old patterns
Want more fulfilling relationships
Want a more fulfilling life
Know it's time, but aren't sure where to start
A 1:1 consultation to discuss what’s brought you to therapy, what you’re hoping for, and whether working together makes sense. Plus I answer all your questions.
After your Discovery Call, you’ll receive a personalized Action Plan with my recommendations and therapeutic areas to focus on if we work together.
If we decide to work together, you’ll begin with a focused 3-month Therapy Season. Complete your forms, secure your spot, and schedule your sessions. Then we get to work.

Press play to hear how you can use your Discovery Call, what we can talk about, and what you’ll walk away with.

“Dr. A helped me take everything I learned in therapy and actually live it. I feel emotionally steady for the first time, even when life is a mess, and dealing with pressures from work and family expectations. It's like the inner confidence and freedom I feel now is wild..!”
“Dr. Aprile has been incredibly compassionate and caring, but also holds you accountable. I have made so much progress since I began working with her."

Best value and commitment to your transformation.

Three monthly payments. Total investment: $3150



Highly professional, where I utilize my expertise, yet...
We talk like old friends.
It's collaborative, warm, and direct.
Insight-oriented and practical.
Focused on emotional awareness, patterns, and your personal power.
Designed to help you build clarity, steadiness, and develop your Emotional Independence™ over time.
A safe space where you don't have to perform, impress, or explain yourself perfectly.

“Dr. A listened carefully, asked thoughtful questions, and gave me effective tools to manage my anxiety. I felt supported and clear about what I was working toward.”
You don't have to have it all figured out. We'll simply start with a conversation... and go from there.
Therapy is personal. Your therapist should be, too.
I bring the training, experience, questions, tools, clinical measures, and my "therapist brain". Plus the occasional quote, metaphor, or therapy joke. Laughter and a little humor are part of the process, too.
You bring your actual life.
Somewhere in the middle, we figure out what’s really happening, what keeps getting in your way, and what needs to change.
But we’re also here to do some work.
We work on all the things and all the feels. Plus, I teach you along my framework of Emotional Independence™... the next tier of growth beyond self-awareness and the insight gained from therapy. You’ll learn to trust your emotions, sidestep other people's drama and mess, regulate your energy, and get back to living life well.
“Working with Dr. Andelle showed me I wasn’t broken. I was just overwhelmed. Now I actually feel bold. I make choices that fit me, I say no more easily, and I’m not walking on eggshells worrying about everyone else’s feelings."

Still curious? Here are some answers.
No. I do not accept insurance.
I am a private-pay provider. This allows me to offer more personalized, flexible, and confidential care without insurance restrictions or diagnoses required for coverage.
Some clients choose to submit claims called Superbills for possible out-of-network reimbursement. I recommend checking directly with your insurance provider. But also I can explain fully this process during our Discovery Call.
Yes.
The Discovery Call is required for all new clients and serves as a professional consultation to ensure fit, clarity, and alignment before beginning therapy.
No.
It is a consultation, not an ongoing therapy session. While it may feel therapeutic, its purpose is assessment, clarity, and decision-making — for both of us.
The Action Plan is not therapy. It’s a clinical planning document I create, customize, and deliver to you with recommended goals and resources based off of our conversation. It provides you clarity and structure for therapy, whether you work with me or not, before officially starting therapy. Many clients find it helpful even if they choose not to move forward with therapy.
Pricing and payment options are included in your Action Plan. This allows us to discuss fees in the context of your goals, recommended frequency, and level of support—rather than as a one-size-fits-all approach.
There is no obligation to continue. The Action Plan is designed to help you make an informed, grounded decision about next steps.
If we both agree it’s a good fit, we’ll discuss options for working together and scheduling.
There is no obligation to continue.
I work primarily with adults, women and men. I also work with couples in select cases.
If you’re curious, thoughtful, have questions, and ready to explore what’s next — the Discovery Call is your next step.
No.
At this time, I see clients virtually only, and offer occasional in-person sessions when our locations and availability align.
That depends on your needs, goals, and capacity.
We’ll talk through realistic options during your Discovery Call.
