I am Peggy Hurst, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience as a School Counselor and several years in private practice. I enjoy working with teenagers, adults, and couples to support self-growth, improve relationships, and encourage positive movement toward life goals. My areas of specialization include treating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, parenting concerns, special needs children, and career identity. I hold a Master of Education in School Counseling from the University of Georgia and a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Richmont Graduate University.
As a Christian counselor, I integrate spirituality into my therapy style, along with mindfulness, gratitude, and resources for healthy living. I frequently use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), EMDR, emotional freedom techniques, motivational interviewing, and acceptance & commitment therapy.
My passion is to help others. I believe people are composed of body, soul (mind/emotions), and spirit, with each part contributing to the larger whole. Helping clients set and work toward treatment goals is my forte. My primary focus is to help individuals overcome internal barriers to growth and empower them to pursue their goals.
