Bipolar Disorder Therapists in Wilmington, NC

As a dually licensed professional counselor and clinical addiction specialist, I have been in practice for over twenty-five years. My strengths include providing warmth, compassion and connection. I have worked with a wide range of adult challenges including anxiety, depression, trauma psychosis and substance abuse.

I look forward to meeting clients who seek a calm, home-like environment in which to safely explore the various ways their lives may be improved. I can help anyone who is inspired to engage in self-exploration and insight-building in order to release what is old and not working and develop new habits that increase function and improve quality of life. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you to get where you would like to go.

There are a lot of therapeutic modalities out there! My approach is to cater to what you need. I like to take time to get to know each of my clients and gain an understanding of what your needs are. I view my approach as collaborative, person centered and goal oriented. I have experience working with children, teenagers and adults. My specialties include using dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) to gain understanding and coping with intense emotions. I am also certified in providing eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. This type of modality can help in processing experiences that might be holding you back!

Are you ready to see mental health and therapy in a new light? Do you wish for a better relationship with yourself and those around you?

Taking time to work on yourself, talk it out, and find the best version of yourself is one of the most important things a person can do. Therapy doesn’t have to be hard or scary - and I am here to break down barriers and end the stigma of mental health and therapy!

At one point or another every person faces difficulties in their life, especially in today’s world. With over 60,000 thoughts a day, most of which are negative, it is hard to combat the emotional distress that builds over time. My specialty is helping you build tools that can assist you in working through those difficulties on an individual level or within a dynamic relationship. I offer a compassionate, supportive and unbiased environment to explore life’s difficulties.

You have inherent value and my goal is to work collaboratively with you to find the best form of therapy to fit your needs. After all the suffering you’ve endured, you shouldn’t have to go through this alone. You deserve someone who will show you empathy and compassion, cheering you on, as you become your favorite version of yourself. Together, we can find a therapeutic method that works best for you. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate, specializing in trauma from childhood, depression, and relationship issues. I see clients 18+ who are navigating trauma and PTSD, relationship issues, and attachment struggles

Hi there, I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with 18 years of experience in the mental health field. My primary goal as a therapist is to authentically connect with my clients. I believe being present is the fundamental element in building successful therapeutic relationships. It is a privilege to be entrusted with clients' most intimate challenges and dreams. I work with individuals dealing with a vast array of issues. A few of my special interests include: life transitions, mood disorders, working with artists/creative thinkers, the LGBT+ community, addiction & recovery, women’s issues and holistic health.

Hi! If you’re searching for a therapist, chances are you might be struggling with something in your life. I sure hope that whomever you choose to work with helps you feel better, think better, and ultimately process what’s happening with refined skills. You've got this! I specialize in the treatment of anxiety disorders and depressive disorders. I also value working with the LGBTQ population, including adolescents, families, and adults, as well as foster/adoptive families. Working with anyone who recognizes a need for change or is interested in making their life better is perfect for me!

Do you lack motivation? Or do you feel unsure of how to cope with your past trauma or current life stressors? If any of these questions resonate with you, it may be time to consider therapy. I enjoy collaborating with my clients by trying to find solutions to their depression and anxiety in the same way you connect the pieces of a puzzle. I want to support you in taking the reins to work towards your goals and find the light when many people would only see darkness.

For as long as you can remember, you’ve felt different. You learned early on that to avoid ostracization and torment, you had to hide parts of yourself. Now, you’re an adult and a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, but things still aren’t easy. You still have residual shame from years of concealing your true self. And the simple act of living authentically in a society dictated by heteronormative standards makes you feel like an outcast. Over the years, you’ve unwittingly internalized people’s judgments and have started harshly criticizing yourself. You wish there were a way to live free of this pain, but you don’t know how.

Our therapeutic experience will be a more interactive one. Whether you want to chat about current stressors, or have made the decision to work seriously on long-term goals for personal improvement in your emotional life, we will work together to determine where best to begin. In addition to working with clients around traditional counseling concerns such as depression, grief, loss, anxiety, stress, and addiction, I also focus on other challenges clients face.

Hi, I'm Cheryl. I have 20+ years of experience as a Clinical Social Worker/therapist. I see therapy as a process of introspection with compassion. Within therapy, one learns to listen and respond with compassion for oneself and others. In therapy, one can develop the ability to expand awareness and be more flexible in making life choices. My specialties include depression, anxiety, loss and grief, relationship issues, gay and lesbian issues, and trauma. I use a blend of cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic models and work with individuals, couples and groups.

As a therapist, I am committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences and I am honored to be your guide on your journey toward healing and personal growth. I believe in the power of therapy to facilitate profound change and help individuals overcome challenges they may be facing. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply seeking greater self-awareness and fulfillment, I am here to support you every step of the way. My approach to therapy is collaborative andcompassionate,

You are a truly unique person, not a carbon copy of anyone else, so your therapy ideally would be designed for your individual needs. We will work together to find tools that fit YOU and that honor your true Self.

Have you ever felt overwhelmed, stuck, burdened by fears, and quite simply lost? I think we all have at one time or another. My life has brought me through a winding path and, along the way, I have met some amazing people... clients that are doing their best despite the burden they carry. Despite my two master's degrees and my 20+ years of counseling experience, I continue to get chills when clients have that "ah-ha" moment and start on a new path in their life.

Finding a nonjudgmental therapist who values your insight into your own life can be a challenge. I wish for my clients to know that I respect their expertise on their own lives and am honored to be allowed in during a time that may feel vulnerable and uncertain. I take a holistic approach, acknowledging that personal challenges are not often the result of one simple problem.

Accepting New Clients! Counseling is a space to be heard and get to work on the healing you deserve. Living your life wrapped up in anxiety, depression and stress is not the life you dreamed for yourself, and change is possible. I am committed to creating a space to facilitate healing, growth, and change. I believe people deserve an intentional space, non-judgmental guidance, and strategic treatment for their unique struggles. You are brave and worth the change you are seeking, and I would be honored to work with you.

Life is a mix of joy and sorrow! Walking through the difficult times is tough emotionally, physically, and spiritually! There is no need to suffer through these hard times alone! God offers comfort and unconditional love in the midst of hardship! Thankfully, He equips His followers with guidance, wisdom, and love to help endure our hardships victoriously. God called me into the counseling field to walk with you through the painful areas of your life! I am well-trained in psychological techniques and approaches! In addition, I have a special love and compassion for people, and utilize a Biblical and Christ-centered approach.

As an EMDR therapist, I feel great passion for helping clients recover from adverse or traumatic experiences and walking alongside them as they begin to see the world through a new lens. Trauma and other mental health struggles greatly affect our important relationships - and our relationships impact our mental health. Helping clients build healthy relationships is central to my therapeutic approach. Together, we'll foster self-understanding and self-compassion, uproot negative or limiting patterns that no longer serve you, and work collaboratively to discover your most authentic 'you.' We'll find ways to infuse a little humor, too!
