April is a Licensed Acupuncturist (L.Ac.) and Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine (DACM) practicing in the Willamette Valley, OR. She specializes in a unique, patient-centered form of acupuncture known as Classical Five Element Acupuncture (CFEA).
Before receiving her Doctorate from Pacific College of Health and Science, April received her B.S. in Psychology from the University of Maryland. Her fascination with the mind-body connection led her to Acupuncture, where she experienced first-hand a form of medicine that addressed not only physical health, but also mental, emotional, and spiritual.
In addition to her formal education in Chinese Medicine, April studied alongside a master-level CFEA mentor in this lineage for four years and is continually learning and refining her skills. This ancient style of acupuncture addresses the root cause of our health imbalances, helping patients experience greater clarity, vitality, and inner peace.
April’s approach is intuitive, grounded, and compassionate. She believes that healing happens in the context of real connection—and that being truly seen and heard is medicine in itself. In a world where we’re constantly plugged in through technology but often starved for genuine heart connection, she creates space for people to slow down, come back to themselves, and feel deeply supported.
Besides her work as a clinician, April is passionate about salsa dancing, enjoying time in nature, and petting every dog she can.
