About Necole
Necole Richardson is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Tennessee with seven years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and codependency patterns.
Necole focuses on practical skills people can use between sessions. She helps clients slow down racing thoughts, name patterns that lead to people-pleasing, and try small behavior changes that protect energy. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at clearer communication and healthier boundaries.
She draws on therapies that teach coping skills and emotional regulation. That includes approaches that look at thoughts and behaviors, acceptance strategies, and ways to tolerate strong emotions without acting on them. These tools are useful for managing grief, anger, caregiver stress, and problems tied to chronic illness or disability.
Navigating identity and intimacy topics is part of her work. She supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment worries, body image, kink and alternative sexuality concerns, and commitment or control struggles. Sessions also address co-occurring issues such as ADHD, bipolar mood patterns, and compassion fatigue.
People who choose her often want clear next steps. She asks concrete questions, offers practical techniques, and checks in on what’s working. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values, then take committed action toward what matters. It is useful when someone is stuck avoiding difficult emotions or losing sight of personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT works well for anxiety, depression, and unhelpful behavior cycles.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Necole will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than following a preset formula.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not specified in the profile. Ask about the exact online session options when you complete the matching questionnaire. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can use a break at work or care responsibilities more easily. Licensed professionals often find these benefits helpful when balancing therapy alongside daily life.
