I’m April Madden, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and the owner of Twisted Oaks Family Therapy.
If you are interested in services, please reach out to clerical at (805)721-6112 or visit our website at twisitedoakstherapy.com
As the owner of Twisted Oaks Family Therapy, I’ve also built a team of clinicians with diverse specialties so that clients can be matched with a therapist who best fits their individual needs. Our goal is to provide a welcoming, nonjudgmental environment where clients can feel comfortable doing difficult work while knowing they do not have to navigate it alone.
I hold a master’s degree in clinical psychology and have more than 20 years of experience in the helping profession, working with individuals and families facing a wide range of emotional, behavioral, relational, and life challenges.
My approach to therapy is compassionate, trauma-informed, and direct. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard and supported, but also a place where meaningful growth happens. I work collaboratively with my clients to identify patterns, build healthier coping skills, strengthen relationships, and create lasting change.
I have experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families, with particular focus on trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, life transitions, addiction and recovery, communication difficulties, self-esteem, and rebuilding trust and connection. I am also a Certified Substance Use Disorder Counselor IV (SUDCC-IV), which provides me with specialized experience in substance use, addiction, and recovery.
Whether you are seeking support for yourself, your relationship, or your family, our goal is to meet you where you are and help you move toward greater understanding, healing, and meaningful change.

I believe that human beings possess an innate ability to move toward happiness and health, but sometimes adversity, life transitions, and challenging experiences can get in the way. My approach aims to foster a reparative relationship through collaborative, warm, and interactive sessions.
I work with young adults and adults struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, communication, parenting, grief, trauma, and life transitions. Together, we can discover your personal strengths and build upon them so you can work towards meeting your goals.

I’m Fatima Castillo, LCSW, and I also go by April. I earned my Master of Social Work from Brandman University now University of Massachusetts Global and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. My background in social work includes experience in child protective services, adult services, behavioral health case management, and school-based mental health. These roles have given me the opportunity to work with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating a wide range of life circumstances and challenges. As a therapist, I have provided mental health services to adolescents and adults in a school-based setting and currently provide therapy to adolescents and adults through telehealth. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns.
My communication style is warm, down-to-earth, and conversational. I strive to create a relaxed, nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable being themselves, talking openly, and feeling genuinely heard and understood.
Growing up, I often witnessed conflict at home and learned to keep many of my feelings to myself. During a time when talking openly about emotions wasn’t always encouraged, I remember wishing I had someone who could help me understand and process what I was experiencing. That experience helped shape the kind of therapist I strive to be today—someone who provides the support, understanding, and encouragement clients may need while navigating difficult seasons in their lives.
I believe therapy should be a place where you don’t have to have everything figured out before you walk through the door. We can begin wherever you are.

I'm a licensed clinician with experience providing individual, couples, and co-parenting counseling. I hold a Master's in Social Work, and I'm licensed in both Texas and California.
My clinical background is eclectic—I draw from multiple modalities, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and tailor my approach to each client's needs rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all method.
I specialize in working with individuals navigating major life transitions and those experiencing anxiety, burnout, or relational stress.
