The Service You Need. When You Need It.
At LifeCare Counseling & Coaching, we are passionate about serving others by integrating the best mental health practices and spiritual care for the soul. Our team of licensed, Christian Psychiatrists and Counselors provide services to individuals, couples, and families across the Triangle, Wilmington, and Triad as well as through HIPAA-secure teletherapy. Our counselors have a broad range of specialties to address mental health concerns, life transitions, relationship issues, and career choices. In addition, our compassionate mental health providers are trained to integrate clinical counseling and theology. They combine research-based psychology with a Christian perspective of human suffering, hope, and redemptive love.
Our Mission and Vision
Our mission is to support, encourage, and provide hope for each individual. Our desire is to meet each client's needs as we live out our mission and vision as a practice. We strive to create a non-judgmental, safe environment where hope and healing can begin. We welcome people of all belief-systems or those who prefer not to express any religious practices. Our clinicians provide a compassionate and professional environment where our clients can feel comfortable and supported throughout their journey.
Counseling
Individual, couple, and family counseling as well as adolescent and child therapy is offered by licensed therapists. Specialized therapy such as EMDR, trauma-focused therapy, art and play therapy are available. Skill groups such as anger management and DBT as well as seminars are offered at various times. If you are interested in enriching your relationship or reaching personal goals, pre-marital/couples counseling or coaching may be right for you.
Psychiatry
The brain is an organ where specialized treatment and medications may be needed to help restore physiological balance and correct functioning. Our psychiatric and therapy team work together to address the whole person to bring healing to the body, mind, and soul. Medication management allows the client to maintain optimal health and well-being.
Assessments
Assessments provide an opportunity to learn more about you. Assessments can determine strengths/growth areas for individual and couples, assist with career and educational planning, and guide treatment decisions or track progress. If you are looking for a specific type of assessment such as ADHD testing, please contact our office.
Coaching
Coaching at LifeCare is an opportunity for individuals who may be stuck in their professional career or life transition, seeking guidance to reach their full potential. Our coaches work alongside our clients to identify and build on their strengths, develop a growth mindset, and create actionable plans to achieve their goals.

Therapist Reviews
Positive Experiences
Several reviewers praised the therapists at Lifecare Counseling, highlighting their professionalism, caring nature, and skill. April Miller, Kathleen Hamby, and Ashley Wright were mentioned specifically for their exceptional service. Reviewers appreciated their ability to provide wise feedback, help them break down barriers in their minds, and offer biblical truths with practical application. They also appreciated the therapists' ability to make them feel at ease and provide a safe space to discuss their issues.
Negative Experiences
On the other hand, some reviewers had terrible experiences with Lifecare Counseling. They mentioned that the office would charge them a hefty fee for missing an appointment, even if they called to cancel 48 hours prior. They felt that the office was inflexible and predatory, taking advantage of people's mental health struggles. One reviewer had a bad experience with the office manager, who would not allow them to speak with a supervisor about their concerns.
Office Policies
Some reviewers were unhappy with the office's policies, specifically the $70 fee for missing an appointment. They felt that this policy was unfair, especially for people who may be dealing with unexpected circumstances such as a sick child.
