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.

Frequently asked questions

Therapy Chair

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

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 a Therapist in Charlotte

Finding the right OCD therapist in Charlotte starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Obsessive-compulsive disorder involves a cycle of intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions), and treatment approaches often include specialized talk therapy; a qualified mental health professional can help determine what may be appropriate for you. Not every therapist has training in ERP, so looking for a provider who lists OCD as a primary specialty — rather than one of many — can make a meaningful difference.

Charlotte has a range of mental health providers across neighborhoods like SouthPark, Ballantyne, University City, and NoDa, including therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists. If you're unsure where to start, a qualified healthcare professional can assess your symptoms, discuss treatment options, and help you decide on a care plan. Some people benefit from working with both. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach, training, and whether they're a good match for your specific concerns.

OCD therapy in Charlotte can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many people pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who specializes in OCD and accepts your coverage.
