Necole Richardson , LPCC, LCMHC

Necole Richardson is a licensed counselor based in Tennessee who uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. She holds the LPCC and the LCMHC and brings seven years of clinical experience to her work. Her approach is grounded in respect for each person's background and identity.

She focuses on everyday changes clients can make. That often means building skills for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and reducing shame. Necole helps people with relationship struggles, intimacy-related issues, and grief as well as common life transitions that feel overwhelming.

Her sessions draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered principles. That mix supports both skill-building and deeper reflection about values and purpose. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is also part of her toolkit for trauma-related work.

Necole commonly works with concerns such as ADHD, bipolar mood challenges, compassion fatigue, chronic pain and illness, and caregiver stress. She also addresses issues around attachment, abandonment, body image, codependency, and kinky or alternative sexual culture when those topics come up in care.

She offers short-term skill-focused work and longer-term therapy aimed at lasting change. Sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. People who speak English can connect remotely from within the United States.

Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people get clear about what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that keep anxiety and depression going. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills that can help when feelings feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That means trying skill-based tools, reflecting on values, and adjusting the plan as progress and challenges emerge.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when screen time is possible. Phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or work better with limited bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging can be used for brief updates or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and different routines.
