Hello! My name is Ariel Wilson, and I am a Registered Mental Health Counseling Intern. I am so

excited to be a part of this amazing team here at Coastal Wellness.

I am a born-and-raised resident of the Space Coast, and trust me, I couldn't imagine calling any

other place my home.

Life takes unexpected turns, and my journey is no different. In the beginning, I had no idea

what lay ahead. I had a hard time discovering my purpose and what I wanted to be when I grew

up. Honestly, I was pretty lost and had no direction.

Grief hit me like a curveball when I was pretty young. It brought a bunch of emotions that

seriously put my resiliency to the test. Dealing with loss threw me into situations and emotions

that most people don't deal with until way later in life. But with that, it taught me about

empathy and the importance of reaching out to others for help.

The road was not always smooth. Difficulties, setbacks, and obstacles continued to test me. Yet,

I discovered inner strength by delving deeper into self-awareness and seeking support through

counseling and the community, enabling me to recover stronger and more determined each

time.

In the midst of life's chaos, I stumbled upon something I am really passionate about- helping

others navigate their own struggles. Following this new found passion, I decided to pursue a

Master’s in Mental Health Counseling. It provided me with the tools and knowledge along with

my own experiences to make a real impact in the lives of others.

Now, working as a mental health counselor, I can genuinely say it brings me enormous

fulfillment. The struggles of my past have become the foundation for connecting with others on

a profound level. My mission is simple – create a space where people can figure out their

challenges, uncover their strengths, and find healing. I’m blessed to assist individuals who have

faced challenges such as trauma, addiction, grief, relationship struggles, parenting difficulties,

self-esteem issues, depression, anxiety, and adjustments to life transitions.

Looking back on my life, I am actually thankful for all the ups and downs. They have turned me into

the person I am today – someone with a wonderful family, a gratifying career, and

opportunities to explore, embrace new adventures, and share laughter with friends. My

journey is still going strong, and I look forward to continuing to empower others to overcome

their difficulties and embrace a life full of purpose and satisfaction.

I am glad you are here. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us at Coastal Wellness 321-757-4015.
