Relationship Issues Therapists in Wilmington, NC

Hi there! My name is Anna, and I’m a supportive clinician who is unafraid to challenge you toward the change you are seeking in a warm environment where you feel comfortable being your authentic self. Accepting help is hard; however, I strive to create a space for you to work through your journey at your own pace and build on your unique qualities in a way that will improve your life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who received my advanced clinical training working with adolescents, children and families at the Yale Child Study Center, a department of Yale University Medical School in New Haven, Connecticut. When addressing issues related to anxiety, depression, AD/HD, parent-child conflict, couple/marital issues, trauma, and/or substance abuse/addictions, I apply a variety of treatment modalities and therapeutic interventions to best address the individual situation.

Hi there! I am passionate about helping people with relationship struggles, dating worries, and the stress and anxiety of "adulting". Whether it's tackling anxiety or navigating the complexities of modern dating, I'm here to empower young adults to find genuine connections and thrive.

Are you feeling like your life and/or your relationship is falling apart? That no matter how hard you try to be strong on the outside, on the inside you are feeling scared and anxious. Hi, I’m Rebecca, a licensed clinical mental health counselor and licensed clinical addictions specialist. I help individuals using a strengths-based approach to meet you where you are, as well as help couples utilizing the Gottman method of relationship counseling, the most researched and effective couples counseling. My specialties include marriage counseling, couples therapy, and individuals with addiction issues, anxiety and depression.

Hello, my name is Stacey Gobins and I am a licensed mental health counselor and addiction and trauma specialist. I offer my clients a sacred space to share feelings about their worries, setbacks, relationship struggles and traumatic experiences that are difficult to talk about. I will support you as we identify the problem, collaborate on choosing your goals "what is your treasure", and work through specific barriers to change and healing during the process of therapy.

Sometimes life throws us curve balls that can knock the wind out of us. I believe regardless of your situation there is HOPE that your circumstance can improve. Beginning counseling is a brave and significant decision. It takes courage to seek help!

I understand the importance of a collaborative relationship in therapy and believe it is the most important vehicle for change. I attempt to provide a warm, caring, and accepting atmosphere that will encourage clients to move towards their goals and improve their lives. My professionalism, authenticity, and sense of humor set me apart as a clinician. I specialize in working with individuals and couples that have been impacted by sexual trauma.

Get unstuck. Whether you need couples counseling or one-on-one for anxiety, make your time and money count. I see couples for premarital work and those in conflict. Culturally, we are taught to be critical—to scan our environment for flaws and errors, to assign blame, and to exercise “critical thinking.” We look outward because we are connected to the world with our eyes and ears, so couples in crisis often come to therapy with this mindset: “It is the other’s fault, and they need to change.” Will staying stuck in this mindset serve the relationship you want, or the one you have? You choose.

Do you consistently feel stressed, burned out, or generally unfulfilled by life? Maybe you’re facing pressures and expectations from family, school or work, and on top of that, experiencing self-limiting beliefs, leading to anxiety and depression. Whether this is your first time, or you are revisiting the idea of therapy, be proud of yourself for taking this positive step towards self-improvement. Through our work, you’ll learn to identify your needs, set boundaries, and have more effective conversations. We’ll also dig into your past to understand how formative experiences contribute to your current relationship patterns.

Hi.My goal is to help you grow, to find more peace, more joy, & create more ease in your relationships; with you, others & your world. Clients come to me due to anxiety, fears, discomfort, uncertainty about the past, present & future. Some feel stuck, others hard to accept or simply a need for change, movement, healing, evolution. I understand that it's super difficult to figure out the HOW when we are caught up in life's challenges. I will hold up a mirror to you and life. Together we will cultivate Trust and Clarity. You will learn tools. As you practice, your life will gently unfold and you will create the life you desire.

I enjoy working with clients who are ready to make changes in their lives, whether this be around mental health, substance, or couples issues. I also enjoy working with clients who need help in figuring out a direction they want to go with their life.

**Telehealth sessions are available.** It's important to me to cultivate a safe relationship space with everyone I see in counseling. We will collaborate, question, reflect, and explore positive directions based on your unique situation, concerns, strengths and individual sense of meaningfulness. Although my comfort zone within the range of life is relatively broad, I do have some special interest in areas related to substance use, family counseling and all facets of pre/post natal concerns.

You feel drained, exhausted and completely frustrated. Your partner is clueless about how to connect with you and you are sure there is no possible way you could make it clearer! They’re just as angry and frustrated. The tension is palpable. And you feel, naturally, angry, lonely, tired. It’s painful. You have put your heart in to this relationship and you are not ready to throw in the towel but the attempts you each make to fix it only land with a thud and result in you both feeling like a failure.

I bring over 25 years of clinical experience in both inpatient psychiatric settings and outpatient settings that have included mental health agencies and an expanding private practice.

I offer treatment using insight enhancing, behavioral and cognitive therapies; as well as spirituality and systems theory approaches to address mood, situational, self-esteem, loss, and relationship problems. I see clients in individual, couple, and family modalties, and am available to faciltate interventions for significant others.

I believe that every human being has the potential to live a healthy, satisfying, and abundant life, aligned with his or her values. My intention is to create a safe, secure, and comfortable atmosphere where I will develop with you, my client, a warm, trusting, cooperative, and mutually respectful relationship. Then, within the context of that relationship, we will explore the pressures/conflicts you are experiencing; what you have learned, during your lifetime, about how to respond to life events; how your particular personality figures into your current concerns; how you feel about your current concerns; and how you express those feelings.
