About Nyree
Nyree Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 28 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, relationship and parenting concerns, and ADHD. She also supports people coping with life changes and mood disorders.
Her approach mixes Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques. Sessions use active listening and practical problem-solving. She emphasizes clear communication and works collaboratively to set goals and try new ways of responding.
Nyree has a long background in behavioral health, addictions work, crisis intervention and prevention, and intellectual and developmental disability services. That experience informs how she helps people manage overwhelming feelings and practical challenges. She also draws on mindfulness and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship interaction patterns are part of the work.
In sessions she offers direct guidance and creative prompts to help people reframe patterns and test new skills. She will help you develop a plan aimed at the issues you bring, and she checks in on progress so adjustments can be made.
Her style is interactive and straightforward. People who prefer hands-on techniques and clear tools for coping may find this approach useful. Language offered is English and international clients are accepted.
Background and approach continued: Nyree’s years in crisis services shape how she responds to urgent concerns and high-risk moments. She integrates emotional regulation strategies with behavioral techniques so people can practice managing strong feelings between sessions. When relationship patterns are central, she uses EFT-informed ideas to map attachment-related interactions and help identify underlying emotions.
She also addresses practical life areas such as workplace stress, caregiver strain, adoption and foster care related issues, and chronic illness impacts. Her work aims to produce usable steps you can try between sessions and to track the effects of those steps over time.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) here looks at interaction patterns and the emotions beneath them. It helps name hard-to-reach feelings and how those feelings shape relationships and behavior. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to see what shifts. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than committing to a single method upfront.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people join from locations that cut commute time. Therapists and licensed professionals often use these benefits to keep weekly appointments consistent and to practice skills between meetings.
