Our Story

The name "Greater Vision" derived from the thought that everyone should have a vision and the ability to be great. We desire to apply those two concepts to every person that enters the corridor of the office. Greater Vision Counseling & Consulting Agency PLLC was established in 2017. As a mother of 3 sons, and being raised on the farm, I have longed to help others through similar struggles that I dealt with. We were afforded the opportunity to help individuals, families and couples with challenges faced in their lives. We have been able to identify amazing therapist that have the same level of passion and love for the same thing. 

Our Mission

The mission of Greater Vision Counseling and Consulting Agency, PLLC is to effectively and efficiently help individuals and families manage life obstacles through effective counseling and other mental health services. The agency currently serves Hoke, Moore, Cumberland, Robeson, and Richmond counties.

Rebecca (Beckie) Lyman, LCSW

Hello, my name is Rebecca Lyman and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education and a Masters of Social Work. I enjoy working with teens, adults and couples. I have a wide variety of experience working with clients with anxiety, depression, personality disorders and more. I strive to encourage others to find a place of peace, understanding and growth. I have a passion for encouraging others to reach beyond their situation to achieve the most potential that they are capable of in their own lives. Through my own experiences, I was able to find the resiliency and strength through many adversities in my own life. Because of these challenges, it has inspired me to help others in their lives as well. I utilize a blend of Cognitive Behavioral, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused, Narrative Therapy, and Psycho-Education to individuals. My theory is individuals who have the motivation to improve and courage to seek growth through vulnerability and hard work can accomplish all the goals they desire
