01About Necole
Necole Richardson is a Tennessee-based licensed clinician who uses practical, person-focused methods to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. She holds LPCC and LCMHC credentials and brings seven years of experience to her work. Her tone in sessions is warm and straightforward.
She aims to make therapy feel manageable and clear for people who are worried or overwhelmed. Necole centers sessions on what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
She helps with relationship strain, grief, intimacy-related concerns, anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with bipolar symptoms, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and caregiver stress. Her approach blends evidence-based tools with a client-centered stance.
That means clients set goals while she offers concrete skills - for example, coping strategies, communication practice, and ways to manage intense emotion. She also uses therapies that focus on acceptance, values, and changing unhelpful thinking. Necole works with issues that include attachment and abandonment, body image, codependency, and complicated sexual or kink-related concerns.
She addresses chronic pain, illness, disability, co-occurring conditions, and the emotional impact of divorce or separation. Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to each person's needs. People can expect clear suggestions, emotional support, and an emphasis on small, doable steps toward feeling better.

04Online support
How evidence-based approaches translate to online therapy
Necole uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as core tools. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify their values and take small steps toward a meaningful life, while learning to accept difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means checking in about what helps, adapting techniques, and adjusting pace so clients feel comfortable trying new skills.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and skills practice, phone can work when bandwidth is low or for shorter check-ins, and chat or text lets people check in between sessions or use writing to clarify thoughts. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving, or medical needs.
