Janna Williams

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


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.

Danielle Emerson

Danielle Emerson

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • North Carolina


After working 15+ years as an RN I am so excited to be making a difference as a provider of mental healthcare. Working from home allows me to offer better calendar flexibility to accommodate different schedules and to take care of my aging dogs at home!

I am compassionate and empathetic and here to help you reach your goals and become the best version of yourself.

During my training I worked primarily in community behavioral health. It is my goal to serve the community and provide support to those who need it while reducing barriers and stigmas that prevent people from getting the care they really need and deserve. Access is for everyone and I want to be a beacon of that message.

I have a certificate in Spanish for Healthcare Providers and as soon as I become a little more fluent I will be able to extend my services, accurately, into a second language.

Kriya Lendzion

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


Are you questioning your relationship with substances or other behaviors, and want to make changes?

Is your child engaging in substance use or other risky/addictive behaviors, and you want to artfully guide them towards healthier decisions, or they’re interested in shifting their use?

Would you like support with creating family screen guidelines that keep your kids healthy, safe, and responsible, while reducing battles over it all?

Are you disconnected from your adolescent and eager for "teen whispering" skills to improve your relationship?

Then I’ve got you!

In the middle of college, at 19, I found myself in rehab, struggling with multiple addictions. This rerouted me from my dreams of Broadway to sparking a 30+ year career in the fields of prevention, early intervention and treatment of substance use disorders and other addictions. I have worked in inpatient and outpatient substance use treatment with adolescents and adults, in therapeutic schools, as a middle and high school counselor, and as a parenting coach.

I’m licensed as a Clinical Mental Health Counselor, Internationally Certified Advanced Alcohol & Drug Counselor, Prevention Specialist, and certified in Digital Health & Wellness. It's also important you know that my own family and close social circle are diverse humans, and I'm comfortable and specially trained to work with LGBTQ+, racial, cultural and religious diversity.

Therapist

Welcome, and thank you for taking this courageous step toward your well-being. Seeking support is often the first step toward reclaiming your story.

My name is Angela, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of clinical experience supporting children, teens, and adults.

Drawing on more than ten years of practice across both outpatient and inpatient settings, I partner with clients to weather life's most significant hurdles, whether you are managing anxiety, navigating a major life change, working through family dynamics, or facing an acute crisis.

Therapy isn't about fixing who you are; it’s about discovering who you can become. My approach is rooted in compassion and evidence-based care, tailored to meet your unique needs and goals. By blending these strategies with collaborative, supportive guidance, we will work together to help you reshape unhelpful patterns, navigate transitions with confidence, and step fully into your potential.

You don't have to navigate it all alone, so let's take the next step toward living your very best life together.
