Kelli Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with individuals and couples who are navigating patterns of disconnection, miscommunication, and imbalance within their relationships.
Many of the challenges that show up in relationships—such as conflict, resentment, or feeling unheard—are rooted in deeper patterns like over-functioning, difficulty setting boundaries, or unclear expectations.
In our work together, we focus on improving communication, increasing awareness of relational dynamics (most of which are learned early in our lives!), and developing practical tools to create healthier, more balanced interactions.
For couples, this means learning how to move out of reactive cycles and into more intentional, collaborative ways of relating. This means you learn how to better communicate and resolve conflict when it occurs.

Natalie Campbell
Psychologist, PsyD; LLC
I love working with couples! In coupleship, I believe you need a large assortment of interventions to accomodate all the different personalities, but the one thing that remains consistent is 'Effective Communication.' LEARNING how to LISTEN, convey feelings, validate, and empathize. I use a combination of Imago, Emotional Focus Therapy, and some of the wonderful skills taught by the Gottmans.

Heather Avery Grant
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSWA
My relationship work is informed by attachment theory and Emotionally Focused Therapy approaches. I have no agenda when it comes to your relationship outcomes - I'm happy to help you stay together, open up, or move apart. I bring empathy, patience, humor, respect and a little sass to your sessions in hopes that we can find the best solution for everyone involved.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Relationships are often where our deepest patterns show up—how we communicate, how we handle conflict, how we give and receive care, and how we navigate closeness and space. Whether you’re feeling disconnected, stuck in repeated arguments, trying to rebuild trust, or wanting to strengthen an already solid relationship, it can be hard to step outside of the patterns you’re in. Add in cultural expectations about what relationships “should” look like, and it can get even harder to figure out what actually works for you.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach to relationships. We work with you (and your partner[s], if applicable) to understand the dynamics at play and actively build more effective ways of communicating, repairing, and connecting. This includes identifying patterns, strengthening emotional awareness, and creating structures that support the relationship you actually want—not just what’s been modeled or expected. We also offer pre-marital and pre–long-term commitment counseling, helping you have the conversations that matter before taking that next step.
We are explicitly affirming of diverse relationship structures, including non-monogamy and polyamory, and we are kink-affirming in our work. We understand these are not interchangeable, and we approach each with respect, clarity, and without pathologizing. This is collaborative, honest work focused on helping your relationship feel more intentional, more connected, and more aligned with your values.

Wilmington is a coastal North Carolina city that has grown significantly as a retirement destination, university community (UNC Wilmington), and—somewhat unexpectedly—a major film and television production hub, with Screen Gems Studios making Wilmington one of the East Coast's most active filming locations and earning it the nickname 'Wilmywood.' The mental health landscape reflects this mix: retiree adjustment and aging concerns, student well-being needs at UNCW, and the particular stresses of the creative and entertainment industry workforce. Hurricane Florence and other significant storms have left a legacy of disaster-related anxiety and trauma for coastal residents, and climate-related worry about storm intensity and sea level rise is a growing theme in local therapy practices. Common therapy concerns include hurricane trauma and climate anxiety, retiree adjustment, student mental health, creative industry stress, and the identity challenges of a city navigating rapid population growth and a changing economic character.
