Introduction

Hi, I'm Fatima Castillo, LCSW (I also go by April), and I'm the founder of Desert Bloom Healing Sanctuary. I believe healing begins in a space where you feel genuinely heard, supported, and accepted. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, grief, and self-esteem concerns. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and evidence-based, tailoring therapy to your unique needs and goals. My communication style is warm, down-to-earth, and conversational. I strive to create a relaxed, nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable being themselves and talking openly. Insurance & Scheduling I accept Aetna and UnitedHealthcare/Optum directly through my private practice, Desert Bloom Healing Sanctuary. I also accept various insurance plans through my partnerships with Headway and Rula.
