Welcome! I’m Nariah, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and improve their overall well-being. I believe mental health care should feel approachable, supportive, and free of judgment. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable sharing your experiences. Whether you're seeking help for anxiety, depression, ADHD, or other mental health concerns, I’m here to partner with you in creating a treatment plan that fits your goals and lifestyle.
I'm a doctoral-level Licensed Clinical Social Worker (DSW, LCSW) with 8 years of experience specializing in OCD, anxiety, PTSD, and trauma. I'm trained in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) — the gold-standard treatment for OCD — and Prolonged Exposure for PTSD, a rare and highly effective trauma protocol. I work virtually with adults and older adults across North Carolina, Maryland, and Tennessee. I accept Aetna, Cigna, Kaiser Mid-Atlantic, Carelon, Ascension, Horizon BCBS NJ, and Independence Blue Cross PA.
My name is Amanda, and my practice was founded based on the power of connection, empathy, and grace. I really believe in the therapeutic relationship and enjoy walking alongside my clients. My background is social work, as I have truly always valued helping people. I received my bachelor’s degree in social work, as well as my master’s degree in social work. I have experience working within the hospital setting, within community mental health, within the court and administrative system, as well as working within the health department. Additionally, I have experience working within residential treatment settings, working with high acuity clients. My true passion is mental health, and I am blessed to be able to focus my intentions on helping to serve clients in my community. . I enjoy working with clients on a variety of areas that include anxiety, depression, life adjustment, relationships, family dynamics, trauma, and obsessive compulsive disorder.
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.
Hi, and welcome! I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. My name is Nate, and I’m here to walk alongside you on your journey. Healing and growth are possible—sometimes it starts with just one small step forward.
A little about me: I hold a Master’s in Social Work, a Bachelor’s in Psychology, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina. My passion is helping people who are hurting find hope, strength, and clarity. If you’re here, it likely means you’re ready for change, and that’s a courageous first step. Let’s begin this work together.
Something Beautiful Counseling was built around a simple belief: that healing is possible for everyone, and therapy should feel like a real partnership — not a clinical process you're being put through.

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Durham, NC
Searching for OCD therapists in Durham starts with finding someone trained in care for obsessions, compulsions, intrusive thoughts, and related anxiety. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use when supporting people with OCD, and not every therapist has training in it. As you compare therapists, look for OCD, ERP, anxiety, phobias, and depression in their listed specialties, and read each bio for details about their approach.
Durham has a strong mental health community, with options near local neighborhoods, nearby campuses, and surrounding areas of the Triangle. Still, the right fit depends on more than location. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions in Durham or virtual appointments that expand access beyond nearby offices. It also helps to check whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers scheduling times that work for you, and clearly describes experience with ERP rather than general familiarity with OCD.
Therapy in Durham can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you compare therapists who match your needs, review bios, verify insurance, see estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.
