OUR TEAM

Portrait of CareNet Central Piedmont Regional director Cindy Hickman Ray

Cindy Hickman Ray, MS, LCMHC
Regional Director

Cindy graduated from Loyola University Maryland with a Master of Science in pastoral counseling in 2004. Her undergraduate work was in dental hygiene. She taught at the community college level and practiced in health care for over 20 years before receiving her counseling degree. She is now a seasoned Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina and is on most insurance panels offered in NC. After completing her counseling degree, Cindy earned the Basic Graduate Theological Studies in the United Methodist Church from Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, DC. Cindy’s calling and passion is pastoral counseling, a process which seeks to understand the human search for meaning and purpose in all of its complexity. She embodies her role of living and practicing by encouraging her clients to live simply, intentionally and purposefully. Pastoral counseling espouses a growth-oriented approach in attempting to interpret human behavior and human experience as an integration of the psychological, intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual. Cindy is available to individuals, late teens and couples for counseling in the Statesville* and Mooresville/Lake Norman clinics. Cindy also serves as a counselor for Davidson Clergy Center, which provides a weeklong, integrative professional experience for clergy and ministry professionals.

*On Wednesdays, Cindy is at First Baptist Church Statesville, 815 Davie Avenue, Statesville, NC
