About Porshure
LCSW Porshure Richardson is a licensed clinical social worker in Tennessee with 21 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, grief, trauma and abuse, bipolar concerns, coaching, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not work with international clients.
Richardson uses client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused therapy. She helps people talk through difficult feelings and practical problems. The aim is to identify small, doable changes and clearer ways of thinking that can reduce distress and build everyday coping skills.
Her approach is straightforward. She listens first, then helps set goals and steps toward them. Conversations cover what is happening now and what a person wants to change. Work may include identifying unhelpful thought patterns, testing new behaviors, and setting short-term actions that fit daily life.
Richardson also supports people dealing with family problems, divorce and separation, loneliness, guilt and shame, and workplace strain. She offers guidance around hospice and end-of-life concerns and helps with feelings of emptiness or low self-worth. Sessions can include coaching-style work for motivation and practical problem solving.
People can expect a calm, goal-focused pace that balances talking with concrete strategies. The therapist invites collaboration on goals and adjusts plans as needs shift.

How her approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. Online sessions using this method prioritize the client's experience and goals, with the therapist helping people name their concerns and decide what to work on. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, then tests small behavior changes and thought experiments to reduce symptoms. Solution-focused therapy looks for immediate steps and strengths to build momentum and solve specific problems.Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences with each person and recommend a mix of methods that fits their needs. Plans are revisited and adjusted as progress and circumstances change.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online options can make regular check-ins easier around work or family commitments and allow brief follow-ups when useful. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking so you know how appointments will be scheduled and conducted.
