About Hattie
She draws on six years of professional counseling experience and a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. Before becoming a counselor she spent over thirty years working in human services, which shaped her practical outlook on care and support. Her background includes grief counseling in schools and national grief settings.
In sessions she listens closely and treats people with dignity. She combines Client-Centered methods with Cognitive Behavioral techniques and mindfulness to help people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and manage strong emotions. Narrative ideas help people reframe stories they tell about themselves.
Hattie also brings Attachment-Based perspectives to relationship and intimacy concerns, and she uses solution-focused ideas when people want shorter-term, goal-oriented work. Her style is compassionate, straightforward, and oriented toward usable steps rather than abstract theory.
She has additional focus in areas such as hospice and end-of-life counseling, jealousy, veteran and armed forces issues, phobias, postpartum depression, and seasonal affective disorder. Sessions are conducted in English and she practices in North Carolina.
How Hattie's approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations of closeness and trust. Online conversations can help people notice those patterns and practice new ways of relating in everyday life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions; it gives concrete tools to test unhelpful beliefs and change behaviors that keep problems going. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their concerns, goals, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as needed based on what works in real life.
Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some people find phone or video sessions helpful for balancing work, childcare, and daily routines; others prefer a longer weekly meeting to practice skills and reflect. The focus is on practical strategies you can use between sessions to manage jealousy, grief, anxiety, and other problems.
