We provide treatment for many psychiatric conditions including anxiety, irritability, difficulty concentrating, sleep problems, poor stress tolerance, depression, trauma-related syndromes and attentional issues. However, our current model may not be best suited for severe or acute illness including active or chronic psychosis, acute mania, severe mood instability or behavioral deregulation, and chronic suicidality. If after screening or initial assessment, we find that our practice may not be the best fit for your needs, you will not be charged for these services.

We offer in-person appointments and services, though most appointments are conducted over Telehealth. Recent regulatory changes by the DEA require one in-person appointment for individuals prescribed controlled/scheduled medications.

Client Testimonials

She is a fantastic listener, which is something I’m not used to. She hears your concerns, and I would definitely recommend.

Extremely knowledgeable and compassionate, flexible about scheduling in person appointments for me as well. I recommend April Dvorak to anyone seeking help with psychiatric/mental health concerns without reservation.

Knowledgeable and very compassionate. April is an excellent clinician.

April has hands down exceeded my expectations. She’s been nothing but empathetic/understanding, knowledgeable, kind, non-judgemental, resourceful, and just on top of it with responses and scheduling. Not exaggerating, I’m truly grateful to be her patient.

My visit was wonderful. I always leave feeling heard and understood and knowing my needs were met.

Every after session, I feel like a huge chunk of my burdens are taken away. Dr. Mortimer is really amazing and warm.
