- LPC, LPCC, LCMHC
As a licensed therapist serving Tennessee, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on empowering clients to navigate challenges related to anxiety, depression, trauma, and personal growth. I bring a compassionate, culturally responsive approach that honors each person's unique experiences and identities.
My therapeutic work focuses on helping clients develop self-love, improve communication, address social anxiety, and explore life purpose. I am particularly committed to supporting individuals working through issues of shame, isolation, workplace stress, and personal transformation.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful change. My approach is collaborative, affirming, and deeply respectful of each individual's journey toward healing and self-understanding.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She’s amazing
I love Necole. She’s helped me out tremendously on my healing journey. She always reminds me to give myself grace in the midst of everything.
Listen thoroughly very professional
Necole has helped me immensely through my journey of healing. Whether it be issues that I'm facing in the moment or deep-seated trauma that I have trouble expressing, she has always been respectful and incredibly helpful. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to mental health but still remains empathetic while being professional. I enjoy our sessions and always look forward to the next one.
My first season was great. Looking forward to talking to her in the future.
Love my time time with Necole. A bit frustrating phone chat not working. I pray IT gets it fixed!!!!!
Necole is great. Kind and helpful, with nudges in the right direction as needed. She feels trustworthy and nonjudgmental.
Necole has been very helpful in talking me through my situations as well as recommending worksheets to help work through in between sessions. Very professional as well.
So far I love her. She is kind and gentle and always looking for extra resources to help in the right ways. She cares
Necole is a great understanding therapist and i would recommend her to anyone. i knew i wanted to stay with her immediately. Better help did a great job matching us up
Necole is insightful and sees things that I may have missed - or she puts them into a different perspective. She's very warm, funny and knowledgable, and I'm very grateful I was matched with such an amazing therapist!
