About Nyree

Nyree Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 28 years of experience. She helps people handle anger, stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, and relationship concerns. Her manner is warm and straightforward so parents can feel heard and understood quickly.

Nyree combines practical tools with emotion-focused work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach skills for managing intense feelings and changing unhelpful thoughts. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, and mindfulness practices to strengthen communication and emotional awareness.

Her style is interactive and nonjudgmental. Sessions focus on building trust, identifying clear goals, and trying simple strategies that fit daily life. She invites clients to experiment with new ways of coping and offers direct feedback and encouragement.

Nyree has worked in behavioral health, addictions, crisis intervention, and intellectual and developmental disabilities settings. That background informs her approach to safety, relapse prevention, and practical problem solving. She emphasizes active listening and collaborative planning.

Clients can expect straightforward plans to address immediate concerns and longer term skills for resilience. Nyree encourages people to be curious and bold about change while she supports them as an advocate and coach. Her work aims to help people regain control and move toward their goals.

Online approaches that teach emotional regulation

Nyree uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change thought patterns that feed anger and anxiety. CBT breaks problems into small parts and gives practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach concrete skills for handling intense emotions. DBT focuses on distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness so someone can respond differently to triggers.

Choosing an approach is a joint process. The therapist will work with the client to pick methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. Early sessions will clarify which skills to prioritize and how to practice them between meetings.

Confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific online options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Discussing scheduling preferences up front helps shape a plan that fits everyday life without promising a particular delivery method.
