I am so grateful for the STILLPOINT community and feel so much joy in being able to serve Wilmington, North Carolina.\u00a0 The past several months has presented uncertainty for clients, therapists, and teachers, and I want to thank everyone for their ability to shift and adjust even during challenging times.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When our state mandated that we shelter in place, we cancelled our groups and classes, and we shifted all individual therapy to the Telehealth platform.\u00a0 This adjustment was easy for some and more difficult for others, but in the end we\u00a0 know we have been able to continue to meet the therapeutic needs of our clients with online counseling.\u00a0 We have also started to adapt to the online community by starting to run Webinars and create private Facebook groups for psycho educational purposes and to build community.\u00a0 We look forward to continuing to expand our online services and presence to help our community have access to what they need for whole body-mind wellness.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With this said, the state is moving into Phase 2 and safer at home practices.\u00a0 Many businesses will be reopening.\u00a0 We recognize that for some clients there may be necessary and clinical reasons for in person therapy.\u00a0 For this reason, we will be opening our offices on a limited basis and with many precautions in place.\u00a0 We are taking these precautions in order to protect the safety and health of our clients, our therapists, and staff.\u00a0 Our office precautions are posted and can be viewed <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>, as well as a <\/span>copy of our informed consent<\/span><\/a> if you and your therapist mutually decide in-office sessions are necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We still strongly encourage the use of Telehealth or online counseling, and we will continue to build programs, training, and psycho educational groups for our online community.\u00a0 We do miss our vibrant office space and the energy that is felt when we share space with you all.\u00a0 We look forward to a day when we are back to functioning at full capacity, and we can have a cup of tea together!\u00a0 We appreciate your support!\u00a0 Stay strong and healthy Wilmington!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Best,<\/span><\/p>\n
