About
Founded by April McElhenny, LCSW, the practice provides a multi-state telehealth approach to therapy, grounded in trauma-informed care and designed for adults seeking deeper healing. Their therapists specialize in working with clients who are navigating the lasting effects of complex trauma, post-traumatic stress and PTSD, emotional neglect, attachment wounds, and identity loss. The Healing Quest is committed to providing an inclusive space for all identities and lived experiences, recognizing that trauma and neurodiversity frequently intersect. They offer support for parents and families, creating a space where both adults and children can be supported in growing, healing, and connecting more deeply with themselves and each other. The practice is proud to be an affirming and inclusive practice serving LGBTQIA2S+ communities, individuals exploring identity, and those seeking a therapeutic space grounded in safety, affirmation, and respect.
