About
As a clinical social worker, it's important to me to meet my clients where they're at and offer a warm, empathetic approach to therapy.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion and authenticity. I’ve supported teens, college students, and adults through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and major life transitions. I believe therapy doesn’t have to feel formal or intimidating, and sometimes humor and real conversation can make the healing process feel more human and relatable.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of North Carolina. My approach is collaborative and practical, integrating evidence-based practices like cognitive behavioral therapy to fit each client’s unique needs and personality.
I view therapy as a partnership where we work together to create meaningful change at your pace and in your style. Taking the first step can feel nerve-wracking, but I aim to create a comfortable, judgment-free space where growth and progress naturally unfold.

I am a dual- and board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with over 16 years of experience. I specialize in supporting individuals facing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, grief, chronic illness, and substance misuse. I understand that finding the right treatment can be overwhelming, so I dedicate time and care to helping each person explore options that best align with their goals and values, ensuring they achieve the most effective outcomes possible.
I received my Master’s and PhD in Nursing from the University of Kentucky and a post-master’s certificate from Frontier Nursing University. My approach combines medication management, alternative therapies, and referrals to supportive mental health care, always tailored to meet individual needs.
My mission is to empower clients with knowledge, tools, and confidence to navigate their mental health. I value open communication, trust, and collaboration, ensuring each person feels supported. I invite you to begin your journey with me so we can work together toward lasting wellness, improved daily functioning, and a higher quality of life.

My name is Sarah Pearce, and I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2018, receiving my Masters in Social Work from the University of North Carolina Wilmington. In 2008, prior to therapy, I worked in education as a teacher, social worker, and mental health support provider. In early 2023, I began my journey at Thriveworks. I am welcoming, warm, and able to assist people of all ages through difficult life transitions, relationships, and mental health experiences- such as anxiety, depression, and support with coping skills.
I enjoy working with children, teens, young & older adults, and families, and I am able to empathetically connect across age groups. With my background in children and families, I am able to relate to and support my clients with a variety of needs. I enjoy a solution-focused approach, using CBT skills, & enjoy mindfulness-based practices as well.
I am a nonjudgmental, understanding, empathetic person with the tools and resources to help you. If you are ready to connect, grow, and feel supported, schedule an appointment today.

With Thriveworks, Online therapy is an effective alternative to in-person therapy services in which a client can speak to a Thriveworks therapist remotely via online video conferencing. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person treatment, but they can also provide added benefits like reduced travel time, saving money on transportation or childcare, and increased access to care.
Online therapy works much like traditional in-person therapy but takes place through secure video conferencing. Clients can attend Online therapy from any safe place they choose that has access to the internet, whether that be their home or another easily accessible place. Like in-person treatment, a therapist will work with their client to address their concerns, create goals, and establish an effective treatment plan.
There is no best option for online therapy—instead, it’s best to focus on finding a provider that meets your specific needs and with whom you can form a professional connection with.
Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.
Online therapy can last for a few months to years depending on the goals and symptoms of the client. The treatment process will be unique to each client and lend itself to their specific concerns, which means that the time it takes to treat them will always be different. Timing is also up to the client themselves; they are free to stop therapy whenever they please, especially if they feel they have reached their goals and addressed their concerns.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay.

Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
The internet can make everything easily accessible, from your favorite take-out delivered to your doorstep, online shopping and establishing medical and psychotherapy services. This accessibility can be an extremely helpful resource, but can also hinder productivity, interactions with others and can blur the line between work and home. Thriveworks Counseling in Wilmington offers online therapy and there’s a great chance your insurance will cover it much like it provides coverage for in person appointments. If you are in between insurance carriers then we are still here for you with online therapy that you can pay for out of pocket.
