About Nyree

Nyree Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 28 years of experience in behavioral health and addictions. She lists stress, anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and parenting among the issues she supports. Nyree also notes work with ADHD, bipolar mood conditions, relationship and communication problems, and LGBT concerns.

Her style is interactive and straightforward. Sessions focus on practical problem solving and skills people can use between meetings. She listens and asks direct questions to help clients clarify goals and try new ways of handling difficult situations.

Nyree integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method ideas, and mindfulness-based work. That mix is used to address emotion regulation, relationship patterns, and everyday stressors. She brings experience from crisis intervention and addictions care to those conversations.

In sessions she helps people set short-term goals and build step-by-step plans. That might include behavior experiments, communication practice, grounding and mindfulness exercises, or working through steps after a loss or separation. Nyree emphasizes clear feedback and practical adjustments as progress is made.

People who want focused, skills-based work and straightforward guidance often seek her out. Her background includes work with adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, workplace problems, and young adult issues. English is the language offered for sessions.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Nyree commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. DBT emphasizes skills for regulating strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships.

She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy principles when relationship patterns and attachment issues are central. EFT helps people understand emotional responses and shift interaction patterns that cause conflict or distance.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Nyree will discuss options and collaborate with each person to decide what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation can include trying a technique and adjusting it if it does not feel helpful.

Confirm current session formats before booking, since they are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy home life, reduce travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. Talk with her during the matching process about what will work best for timing, length, and the practical aspects of remote sessions.
