Tina Spach

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Addiction Specialist — and this work is not just my profession, it is my calling. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating substance and behavioral addictions, and I also hold space for something that often goes unaddressed: the family members of addicted loved ones, who carry their own profound pain and deserve their own healing. I am trained in EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Relapse Prevention, and Self-Compassion practices. But beyond the credentials, here is what I want you to know about me: I believe that therapy is about walking beside you — not directing you, not fixing you — with the quiet understanding that we are all, in our own way, walking one another home. That belief shapes everything about how I show up for my clients.

Janna Williams

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.

I will work with you to determine the best approach to meet your goals. I am a North Carolina Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist-Associate who serves adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I work with young people experiencing disruptive behaviors, and individuals experiencing change of life concerns, anxiety, depression, and adjustment disorders, as well as aiding individuals in developing anger management skills and coping skills to address emotional and behavioral concerns.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Boone

Finding the right therapist in Boone, NC starts with identifying what kind of support you're looking for. Boone-area providers commonly work with concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions — and many specialize in approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and family therapy. Whether you're a student at Appalachian State, a long-time Watauga County resident, or living in a nearby community like Banner Elk or West Jefferson, consider what matters most to you in a provider — their specialty, availability, session format, and whether they offer virtual or in-person appointments.

Therapy in Boone can be expensive without coverage. Using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket. Using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and your out-of-pocket cost may be as low as $0 per session — though costs vary based on your specific plan and location.

Because Boone is a smaller mountain community, local availability can be limited. Virtual therapy expands your options by connecting you with licensed North Carolina providers beyond the immediate area. On Headway, you can browse providers who offer virtual sessions, review their bios to learn about their style and approach, and book directly when you find someone who fits.
