I have been working with those suffering from addiction and co-occurring disorders since 2011 in an outpatient and inpatient setting.

As humans, I believe we need a soft place to land. Being in the world brings with it a variety of feelings, thoughts, and sensations, but often we struggle to find space in our lives to process these experiences. I believe the connection and safety offered through individual therapy creates an opportunity to name the parts of us that feel painful or confusing or joyful — to allow us to move toward greater self-acceptance by noticing and being heard.

Your Journey to Healing Starts Here! Life doesn't have to feel overwhelming. If you're struggling with difficult thoughts, intense emotions, or patterns that keep you stuck, you're not alone—and there is hope for change. I specialize in helping individuals break free from the patterns that trauma creates in our lives. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, or other life challenges that feel impossible to navigate, we'll work together to identify what's keeping you stuck and create a clear path forward. Life stressors can be confusing and overwhelming, affecting how we see ourselves, our relationships and our future.

Life is hard. Sometimes you need a helping hand to overcome challenges and to live your best life. I believe you have the ability and power to heal yourself and to improve your situation.

Hi, I’m Jamelia Shahid-EL a LCMHC and school counselor with 10+ years of experience. I offer affirming, down-to-earth therapy for children navigating anxiety, identity, burnout, and life transitions. My space is inclusive, trauma-informed, and rooted in care.

I'm Janna Williams, and my path to becoming a therapist is anything but traditional — and I think that's exactly what makes me effective. After 30 years with the State of North Carolina, I retired and did what most people wouldn't: I started over. I became a mobile crisis team responder, showed up for people in their hardest moments, and discovered exactly where I was meant to be. I hold a degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Sociology from UNC Charlotte (Go Niners! 🤘) and earned my Master of Social Work from UNC Pembroke in 2022 (Go Braves! 🏹). My background spans the judicial system, child welfare, substance use, crisis intervention, and suicide prevention — which means I've seen a lot, and very little surprises or intimidates me. I'm here with you at Greater Vision Counseling Services, Southern Pines, and I am genuinely honored to be part of your story.
