Therapists in Wilmington, NC

Are you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and overtaken by thoughts of uncontrollable self doubt? Do you seem directionless or like you are just going through the motions? What if you could come to a place of authenticity and clarity? A place where you could feel more supported, understood, and in control? Even the strongest individuals can feel stuck navigating the expectations and demands of life. During my time in practice I have worked with individuals, couples, and families who are experiencing issues with perinatal/postpartum mood, relationships, life changes, grief & loss, depression, and anxiety.

I currently work for a group practice that focuses on treating adults in our office or via Telehealth. I have over 25 years of training and experience in a variety of therapeutic modalities including CBT, DBT, Trauma-Focused, and Spiritual Healing. I help adults of all ages improve their symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar, just to name a few. I’ve guided patients through childhood/past traumas, losses and abuse to find healing and restoration. I graduated from New York University with a MSW in psychology and a CSW focusing on clinical social work.

Laura Fuller is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor who has 12 years of experience working with grief, loss, chronic illness, and trauma. Laura has a particular interest in working with children and adolescents. She completed her Bachelor of Science in Human Development with a concentration in Child Life from Wheelock College and received her Master of Science in Community Counseling from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

Healing can be approached from many different directions; it is a process that is different for everyone. I work collaboratively with children, adolescents, adults, and couples on issues ranging from depression, anxiety, and loss, to relationship distress, addiction, and difficult life transitions. My office is centrally located in Wilmington, NC, across from the UNCW campus and I am currently seeing clients both in-person and virtually. My hope is for clients to feel more at ease with themselves and others, in body, mind, and heart. 

At some point in our lives, we all experience pain or illness. So, what happens when pain or illness becomes a defining point in our lives? We may not do the things we used to do, we may not feel like ourselves, we may not live our lives the way we thought we would. BALANCE Integrative Care, PLLC, recognizes how broadly and deeply pain or illness may affect our lives. Our services support people to manage or cope with pain or illness in a way that allows them to live their lives more fully.

For the past 25 years my interest and passion is working with adults and children, families and couples to reach their goals and make positive change in their lives. Whether you are experiencing an adjustment to a new and difficult situation or have been dealing with a more complex condition for which you need help, Ms. Forris helps define the issues and develop solutions. Ms. Forris has a wide breadth of knowledge and experience over a wide spectrum of mental health problems. She has trained, mentored and supervised many therapists in community mental health, home health and public health settings.

Hi! I’m Jess, an integrative therapist, and coach. I love using humor to connect with my clients and draw out their strengths in a judgment-free setting. I guide our time together to get the most out of each session, quickly empowering you with tools for a happier life. I bring a developmental lens to my work with clients from birth through grandparenting with a special focus on attachment. I'm passionate about infant mental health, couples communication, self-development, and family dynamics. If you're looking for a unique approach to trauma healing, mental health management, and self-actualization, let's set up a free call.

I see therapy as the process of learning to tap into your inner source of strength, especially when life becomes difficult or overwhelming. It can also be an incredible journey leading to personal growth and the ability to trust yourself. I get that looking inward isn't always easy, so that's where I come in - to help guide you through this process in a safe, nurturing and supportive space. I specialize in treating anxiety disorders, mood disorders, adult ADHD and in working with clients to build stress management, distress tolerance and emotion regulation skills. I, like all Honeybee providers, am an LGBTQIA+ affirming clinician.

I believe people seek out objective psychological services when they have exhausted their personal resources; it is at that point I find they are open to collaboratively seeking out and finding new ways to resolve their problems. With a Master's Degree from East Carolina University and 30+ years experience, primarily in a clinical setting, but some in group care and some in academia, I strive to offer these services in warm non-institutional setting. I have been married to Chuck for 26 years and have 3 wonderful adult children.

Are you feeling stuck in your recovery? Can you recognize stressors/triggers that threaten the progress gained in relationships, career and overall well being? Getting stuck is neither good nor bad; it simply is. Growth and maturity is a difficult path to under take. Those of us who are successful in recovery cope with our stuck points through a process of recognition and problem solving. Recovery is: increasing awareness, recognizing and interrupting automatic behaviors, learning a new way of relating to discomfort, and cultivating kindness and compassion for ourselves and others.

I AM CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. I have successfully worked with couples for over 20 years. I specialize in marriages/relationships and marriage/relationship dynamics.

I will help you to heal from your traumas. I will help you to learn how to communicate with you partner so that you can rekindle the love, intimacy, passion and friendship you once had.

I am passionate about strengthening marriages, helping couples find restoration from bad choices, better communication, and how to recover from the difficulty of an affair. Men and women are trapped by their addiction to pornography, and I am committed to help you find a true path to restoration and health. The sexual addiction cycle is tough but with your commitment to work hard, I will help you find healing from the devastation within your marriage and family relationships. My practice also includes helping church leaders find restoration from burn out or other struggles such as pornography or infidelity.

Do you have a tendency to worry more about how others see you than what is best for you? Do you wish life would just stop for a minute so you could catch your breath? Do you sometimes feel that you'll be dealing with your eating disorder forever?

I apply a person-centered approach to my relationships with clients.

I have devoted my practice to helping individuals create more satisfying, productive, and peaceful lives. I believe therapy should be exciting, valuable and fun.
