About Shemeah
Shemeah Richardson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who centers care on the person in front of her. She uses straightforward conversation and practical tools to help people face anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship or parenting stress. Shemeah keeps sessions calm and focused so parents and individuals can bring real concerns and get useful steps forward.
She draws on client-centered therapy to follow each person's priorities and values. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors.
How Shemeah works
Mindfulness methods are offered to reduce overwhelming emotions and increase moment-to-moment coping. She has 12 years of clinical experience and has worked across varied settings. That background helps her tailor work for issues such as grief, identity concerns including LGBT and gender dysphoria, abandonment and family of origin questions, and challenges that come with caregiving or aging loved ones.
In sessions she listens for strengths and practical options. She helps people weigh choices, practice communication, and manage impulsivity or anger. Treatment plans are paced to match what each person can handle between sessions.
Shemeah provides online support from Colorado and speaks English. She is licensed as an LPC in Colorado and Georgia. The first steps are simple: complete a short matching form and schedule a time to begin working on clear, manageable goals.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Shemeah often uses client-centered therapy to let a person's own goals and values guide each session. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and developing plans that make sense for the person seeking help.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT to spot patterns of thinking that increase anxiety or depression and to practice new, more helpful behaviors. CBT can be useful for problems like panic, low mood, or difficulties with impulsivity. Mindfulness therapy is offered as well to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and build steady coping skills.
Finding the right mix is part of the work together. Shemeah will talk with each person about goals, try approaches, and adjust methods based on what helps. The process is collaborative and paced to fit what someone can manage between sessions.
Online sessions can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit a busy life. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth or cameras are limited, and chat or messaging can be used for quick check-ins or ongoing support. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities.
