About Nate
Nate Porter is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Kansas and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in Utah with nine years of practice. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger, depression, ADHD, addiction concerns, grief, parenting pressures, and codependency. Sessions are aimed at helping people make concrete changes rather than offering simple fixes.
Nate starts by listening to how a person's life is affected day to day. He treats clients as the experts on their own experience and looks for strengths to build on. Conversations tend to focus on specific patterns, such as people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or getting stuck around someone else's moods or substance use.
In session he uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to develop practical strategies. That can mean learning new ways to set boundaries, managing intense emotions, or breaking cycles that keep someone overwhelmed. The work often includes short-term skill-building alongside deeper talk about attachment and abandonment concerns.
Nate has experience across a wide range of issues including trauma, body image, co-occurring conditions, and forgiveness work. His approach is straightforward: identify what is not working, try clearer behaviors, and adjust based on what helps. He avoids jargon and keeps sessions focused on usable steps.
People considering therapy with Nate will find a clinician who focuses on what they can do differently now. He encourages clients to try changes between sessions and brings those results back into the work together.
How sessions work
How Nate uses therapy approaches for online work
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques here focus on practical change. One commonly used approach is skills-based work that teaches concrete actions for managing anxiety, anger, and day-to-day stress. That helps people practice responses and notice what works in real life. Another approach addresses attachment and abandonment concerns by tracing patterns in relationships. Sessions look at how old interaction styles show up now and try new ways of communicating and setting limits. This can be useful for people who struggle with people-pleasing or losing themselves to another person's needs. Finding the right approach is part of the collaboration. Nate will work with each person to choose which techniques to try based on their goals, preferences, and how they respond. He adjusts plans from session to session so the work fits what is actually helping. Confirm the specific session formats with the platform before booking. The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week, shorter check-ins when needed, and options that may reduce travel time. These features can make regular work on boundaries and behavior changes easier to maintain alongside everyday life.Areas of focus
