When not in the clinic, Robin finds restoration through travel, movement, and time in nature. She loves cooking and baking as a form of meditation, practicing barre3 to move stagnant energy, and connecting meaningfully with those around her.
Robin believes that healing is not a destination, but a relationship—one built on curiosity, kindness, and the courage to reconnect with the wisdom of the body.

Dr. APRIL COUGHLIN, laC
DOCTOR OF ACUPUNCTURE AND CHINESE HERBAL MEDICINE
-
Dr. April Coughlin, DACM, L.Ac. is a Licensed Acupuncturist and Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine practicing in Oregon's Willamette Valley. She specializes in Classical Five Element Acupuncture (CFEA), an ancient style of acupuncture that addresses the root causes of imbalance while supporting healing across the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of health.
Before earning her Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine from Pacific College of Health and Science, April received her Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Maryland. Her fascination with the mind-body connection ultimately led her to Chinese medicine, where she discovered a system of healing that recognizes the profound relationship between emotional wellbeing, physical health, and overall vitality.
In addition to her formal education in Traditional Chinese Medicine, April completed a four-year apprenticeship with a master-level Classical Five Element Acupuncture practitioner and continues to deepen her study of this lineage. Through this work, she helps patients cultivate greater clarity, resilience, vitality, and connection to themselves.
April's approach is intuitive, grounded, and compassionate. She believes healing happens in the context of genuine connection and that being truly seen and heard can be transformative in itself. In a world where many people feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or constantly "on," she creates space for patients to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and access their body's innate capacity for healing.
Through Everwell's Willamette Valley location, April welcomes patients from Dayton, McMinnville, Newberg, Dundee, Carlton, Lafayette, Yamhill, and surrounding Oregon wine country communities who are seeking a holistic, personalized approach to acupuncture, emotional wellbeing, stress management, and whole-person wellness.
Outside the clinic, April enjoys salsa dancing, spending time in nature, and petting every dog she can.

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 Traditional Chinese Medicine, April apprenticed with a master-level CFEA practitioner 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.

William MacDonald, L.Ac., LMT is a Licensed Acupuncturist and Licensed Massage Therapist practicing in Oregon's Willamette Valley. He brings a uniquely integrative approach to care, combining acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, therapeutic bodywork, and nervous system-focused therapies to help patients experience greater vitality, resilience, and overall wellbeing.
William holds a Master of Science in Acupuncture with a Chinese Herbal Medicine Specialization (MSAcCHM) from Pacific College of Health and Science and completed his Massage Therapy and Holistic Health Practitioner training at Healing Hands School of Holistic Health.
Originally from the Washington, D.C. area, William relocated to San Diego and began his career in holistic healthcare as a massage therapist specializing in therapeutic massage, chronic pain management, injury rehabilitation, stress relief, and whole-body wellness. Working alongside chiropractors and other healthcare professionals, he developed a deep appreciation for collaborative care and helping patients recover from both acute and chronic conditions.
His passion for continued learning led him to study Craniosacral Therapy through the Upledger Institute, where he explored somatic bodywork, nervous system regulation, and the body's innate capacity for healing. This interest eventually evolved into a deeper study of Eastern philosophy and Chinese medicine, leading him to pursue advanced training in acupuncture and herbal medicine.
During his graduate studies, William developed particular interests in Chinese Herbal Medicine and Japanese Meridian Therapy, a gentle yet highly effective style of acupuncture that is especially supportive for individuals who may be new to acupuncture or sensitive to needles. His treatments are personalized and may incorporate acupuncture, herbal medicine, massage therapy, craniosacral techniques, and other supportive modalities depending on each patient's goals and needs.
William recently relocated to Oregon to work alongside his friends and colleagues at Everwell and expand access to holistic healthcare throughout the Willamette Valley. He believes true health extends beyond the absence of disease and is rooted in experiencing greater balance, vitality, and quality of life.
William welcomes patients from Dayton, McMinnville, Newberg, Dundee, Carlton, Lafayette, Yamhill, and surrounding Oregon wine country communities who are seeking support for chronic pain, injury recovery, stress management, nervous system regulation, and whole-person wellness.
