I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for clients to explore those vulnerabilities as they process past trauma as well as current stressors that lead to depression and anxiety.

Greetings! I'm Vickey Hart, a licensed associate clinical mental health counselor with almost a decade of experience in counseling and behavioral health. Specializing in aiding diverse populations, my therapeutic focus revolves around guiding individuals to overcome depression, anxiety, and trauma. In our initial sessions, we comprehensively assess presenting issues, collaboratively crafting a personalized plan fostering positive change and overall well-being. I'm delighted to share that many clients witness a gradual reduction in symptoms within the initial months of therapy, leading to sustained progress.

I believe all of us have been designed with what we need to heal from our past hurts/traumas. However, we all can sometimes get stuck. This is where therapy can help by guiding you in developing and utilizing the strengths and resources you were designed with. You do not need to have a “major disorder” to benefit from seeing a therapist. Whether it is stress, family/parenting problems, past trauma(s), anxiety, depression, and/or something else, your story matters. Our bodies and brains are wonderfully made to heal, grow, and change so we can live our story today with intentionality, resilience, and healthy relationships.
