Meet Grace

Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate

Grace is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Associate in North Carolina with a deep passion for helping children, adolescents, and families thrive. She earned her bachelor’s degree in Human Development from the University of Georgia and her Master’s in Counseling from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

Grace specializes in supporting children and teens through challenges such as anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD, behavioral concerns, divorce, school struggles, and major life changes. She understands that every child is part of a larger family and community, and she values partnering with parents and caregivers as an essential part of the healing process.

Her approach is warm, engaging, and holistic—tailored to each child’s developmental stage and unique needs. Grace incorporates play, art, movement, music, and other creative methods into her sessions, believing that therapy should feel safe, natural, and empowering. For younger children, she often uses child-centered play therapy, giving them space to express themselves and grow in ways that feel authentic to them.

Grace is passionate about building strong, supportive relationships with both children and their families. She believes every child has the potential for resilience and growth, and she feels honored to walk alongside them on their journey.
