My name is Delondria Catrice Hines (I prefer my middle name Catrice) and I am excited to serve as the school counselor for Pleasant Grove Elementary. I was born in Greenville, NC and moved to Wake County in 2011. My spare time is spent with my husband, Bruce and our 2 sons, Jay and Jason. Jay is a graduate of North Carolina Wesleyan College and Jason attends Gardner-Webb University.
I completed my undergraduate studies at East Carolina University. I have two Master’s degrees, one in Psychology from the University of Phoenix and the other in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. I am a licensed National Certified Counselor (NCC) with the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC). My previous work experience includes collegiate academic counseling, substitute teaching, and preschool teacher assistant.
My counseling philosophy is student-centered and solution-focused. I believe in a comprehensive counseling program that addresses the academic, career, and personal/social development of all students. I am looking forward to an amazing year at Pleasant Grove!
