About Porshure
Porshure Richardson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Tennessee with 21 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. She focuses on practical help for motivation, self-esteem, confidence, and coping with change. Sessions are conducted in English and are grounded in everyday concerns.
Her work aims at clear, practical steps rather than jargon. She listens to what is happening now and helps identify small changes that make daily life easier. That can include strategies for managing anxiety, ways to rebuild confidence after a loss, or tools to cope with mood swings and bipolar challenges.
Porshure uses client-centered methods to keep the conversation focused on each person’s goals. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Solution-focused work helps set short-term goals and track progress in manageable steps.
She has broad experience with family problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and issues common in the workplace. Porshure also offers support around trauma, abuse, hospice and end-of-life concerns, isolation, and women’s issues. Those topics often show up alongside stress, depression, or grief.
Her approach is straightforward. People can expect practical discussion, goal-setting, and follow-up between sessions when useful. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site’s online process.

How Porshure Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Porshure uses client-centered therapy to keep conversations focused on what matters most to the client. That approach means she follows the persons lead, listens closely, and builds sessions around the clients goals and experiences. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors that get in the way of day-to-day functioning. CBT is practical and helps with anxiety, depression, and confidence by testing new ways of thinking and acting. Solution-focused therapy is part of her toolbox for setting short-term, achievable goals. This method helps clients notice what is working and build on small changes week to week. Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. She will work with clients to choose approaches that suit their goals, needs, and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as progress is made. Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm which online options are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, or let someone join without needing to be on camera. These practical benefits often help people maintain consistency and make steady progress.CAreas of focus
