Director of Counseling | Elem. Counselor
Nicole Hamm, Ed.S, LPC-A, NCC, CDF
Hello! This is my 4th year at East Point Academy and I'm looking forward to a great year! I have a Bachelor of Arts in Experimental Psychology, an Education Specialist degree in Counselor Education, and certificates in Play Therapy and Career Development Facilitator all from the University of South Carolina. I am also a nationally certified counselor and just recently received my LPC-A. I currently serve as a crisis counselor for the SC Public Charter School District.
During my time in graduate school, I presented research at the European Branch of the American Counseling Association in Vienna, Austria, and most recently presented at the Palmetto State School Counseling Association conference in January of 2022. I have a passion for advocating for mental health. I also strongly believe in movement, as I am a dancer as well and often incorporate dance and yoga in my practice.
