About Necole
Necole Richardson is a licensed clinician based in Tennessee who uses practical, people-focused methods to help clients manage stress, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. She holds credentials as an LPCC and an LCMHC and brings seven years of experience to her work. Her style is direct and compassionate, aimed at making day-to-day life feel more manageable.
Nicole emphasizes a collaborative approach in sessions. She listens to what is most pressing and helps people build skills they can use between meetings.
Background and approach
That can mean working on emotional regulation, clearer communication, or strategies for coping with major life changes. Her practice includes support for trauma and abuse recovery, addiction-related struggles, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. She also focuses on relationship and family concerns from an individual perspective, including communication problems and commitment issues.
Clients with bipolar mood patterns, anger, or compassion fatigue may find concrete tools and pacing in her sessions. Additionally, she addresses less commonly named areas like attachment wounds, abandonment, body image, and challenges tied to chronic illness or caregiving stress. The work often blends practical behavior changes with attention to meaning and values.
Sessions may include talking through difficult memories, practicing new ways to handle strong emotions, or setting small goals that build confidence. The aim is steady progress that fits each person’s life and goals.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take manageable action toward them, even when uncomfortable feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. These methods are useful for anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD challenges, and coping with life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as needed so the work fits the person’s life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for longer sessions that include skill practice and conversation. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a calmer check-in is needed. Chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, between-session support, or when writing things out feels easier than speaking.
