Therapy for Adults

virtual and in-person sessions in wilmington, nc

Stillpoint utilizes counseling and therapeutic services to help you find your “still point” in what often seems like chaos. We want to help you turn down the noise and embrace the life you were intended to live.

By being here, you have already taken a huge step towards making positive changes in your life. This can be a tough decision to make, but Stillpoint is here to help you – to help you get your life back on course, to find contentment with your current circumstances, and to find joy in every day living.

Life often seems to be moving so fast that we do not have time to catch our breath – much less focus on health and wellness.

depression

anxiety

Anxiety is natural response to emotional or physical stress. It is a feeling of worry or nervousness associated with an event or situation.

Therapy can help to uncover the underlying causes of your worries and fears, learn how to relax, look at situations in a new, less frightening way, and develop better coping mechanisms and problem-solving skills.

If you're experiencing nervousness, restlessness, rapid breathing, lethargy, difficulty focusing, excessive worry, insomnia, or obsession about certain ideas, therapy can help.

depression

Depression is a common mental health condition that changes the way you think, feel, act, and perceive yourself, others, and the world around you.

This can show up by feeling worthless, that you can't do anything right, guilty for just wanting to eat, sleep, and be alone, hating who  you are, non-stop crying, and that your life and world are dark.

Know that you are not alone and there are people who can help. Many of my clients find relief in realizing that their struggle does not own them and that there are many options available to once again have hope for their lives.

Burnout occurs after a prolonged period of emotional, mental, and physical stress. If you are experiencing burnout, you may also feel overwhelmed and unable to meet the demands of your job or daily life.

Some signs and symptoms of burnout include feeling tired and drained most of the time, getting sick more frequently; feeling like a failure,  loss of motivation, cynicism, decreased satisfaction with your job, detachment, isolation, using drugs or alcohol to cope, and withdrawing from responsibilities.

Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime whether it’s a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, a violent criminal act, exposure to the violence of war, or a natural disaster.

While many people can recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends and bounce back with resiliency, others may discover effects of lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or posttraumatic stress far after the event has passed.

Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy is designed for people who suffer repeated bouts of depression or chronic unhappiness. It combines the ideas of cognitive therapy with meditative practices and attitudes based on the cultivation of mindfulness.

Somatic Experiencing (SE™) aims to resolve symptoms of stress, shock, and trauma that accumulate in our bodies. When we are stuck in patterns of fight, flight, or freeze, SE helps us release, recover, and become more resilient. It is a body-oriented therapeutic model applied in multiple settings for healing trauma and other stress disorders.

No judgements. No biases. Just a strong support system with open ears. Stigma, in any form, is an impediment to the well-being of those who experience it. Given the stressors that LGBT groups must confront, such as homophobia, prejudice, coming out, and discrimination, finding a therapist who is openly LGBT-friendly or who specializes in LGBT issues is crucial to your personal growth.

Our therapists are committed to helping clients of all genders, sexual identities and expressions feel not only safe, but truly respected.

Steps To Therapy

01

initial reachout

You can reach out initially by phone or email according to your preferences.

02

initial appointment

During your initial appointment, you can expect to meet with the therapist to get comfortable in the space, understand the structure of the therapy, and your client rights. This initial appointment is a great time to explore long term goals and to determine if the therapeutic relationship is a good fit for you. In addition, the therapist will give you feedback on the ways in which she may be able to help support you in reaching your long term goals.  This is a collaborative process between you and the therapist.

03

continued support

At the end of your initial appointment, a consistent therapy schedule will be recommended and your future appointments set up. This can include individual therapy, family therapy, parenting support, mindfulness group, therapeutic yoga, or a combination of these will be appropriate for you.

Everyone needs help now and then. In our work together, I’ll help you explore and identify your strengths and how to implement them to reduce the influence of the problems you are facing. Asking for help can be hard, but it is a courageous action that has limitless possibilities.



back to the questions

I’ve never talked to anyone. I’m used to handling things on my own. How will therapy help me?

The difference is between someone who can do something, and someone who has the training and experience to do that same thing professionally. A mental health professional can help you approach your situation in a new way– teach you new skills, gain different perspectives, listen to you without judgment or expectations, and help you listen to yourself. Furthermore, counseling is completely confidential. You won’t have to worry about others “knowing my business.” Lastly, if your situation provokes a great deal of negative emotion, and you’ve been confiding in a friend or family member, there is the risk that once you are feeling better you could start avoiding that person so you aren’t reminded of this difficult time in your life.




back to the questions

What’s the difference between talking to you or my best friend or family?

A great place to start is looking through our therapist’s bios here on the website. You may also call in to our office for a free phone consultation with our administrative staff. If email is better for you, we can also discuss your needs and what you are looking for when you contact us via email. We can answer all your questions, concerns, and alert you to any details about your initial appointment. During this time, feel free to ask any questions you have in regards to therapy style, location details, or payment.

This initial appointment is a great time to explore long term goals and to determine if the therapeutic relationship is a good fit for you.

Payment is taken at the end of each session.






back to the questions

What is the first session like? What should I expect?

Because each person has different issues and goals for counseling, it will be different depending on the individual. Each therapist tailors their therapeutic approach to your specific needs.







back to the questions

How does therapy work? What do I have to do in sessions?

Unfortunately, this is not possible to say in a general FAQs page. Everyone’s circumstances are unique to them and the length of time counseling can take to allow you to accomplish your goals depends on your desire for personal development, your commitment, and the factors that are driving you to seek counseling in the first place.








back to the questions

How long will therapy take?

If therapeutic yoga is something you want to incorporate into your sessions, this could occur on the same day as your therapy service or scheduled for a different time. Comfortable, flexible clothing should be worn to enable to you move and stretch. You would move from the therapy room to the yoga room where you would be guided through a customized, therapeutic yoga class.

You do not have to incorporate yoga into your plan, but it is an option to discuss with your therapist. Not all of our therapists are yoga instructors, so you may schedule with a yoga teacher if this is something you want to incorporate into your wellness program. Some of therapists are yoga practitioners and this may be something to consider when you consider the best fit therapist for you.

In general, yoga can be used as part of stress reduction program, supporting the balance of a dysregulated nervous system after trauma, or as part of mind-body wellness. Feel free to contact us to ask more about this if you are interested.







back to the questions

I saw you offer therapeutic yoga. How does this work?

We are so glad you are dedicated to getting the most out of your sessions. Your active participation and dedication will be crucial to your success.
