Clairissa Richardson, LCSW

I want to start by saying how grateful I am to have Clairissa as a therapist! When I first began my healing journey, I was struggling with my mental health relating mostly to childhood trauma, and finally decided that no amount of late night Reddit forums or self help book reading would give me the kind of healing that I was looking for. I was lucky to (on my second try for a therapist) happen upon Clairissa and quickly scheduled an appointment not knowing exactly what to expect and feeling pretty nervous about being vulnerable with a stranger. I was relieved to find that on the other end of the screen was a very intelligent, compassionate, caring, trauma informed, and understanding human being. I’ve been working with Clairissa for around two years and through her compassion and guidance my life has dramatically changed because of her help. There are many times she has gone out of her way and extended the session to help me too and for that I am so grateful!

Dr. Richardson is a comforting, empathic therapist. I appreciate her professionalism while making me feel at ease during our sessions. I would highly recommend Dr. Richardson for anyone looking for a therapist.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Richardson for a year and a half (now only as needed), and her work is phenomenal. She cares deeply about her patients and takes the time to understand them with no judgement. She also gives very truthful advice because she genuinely wants to see others improve and grow, instead of telling people what they want to hear. She has seen me get through college, and enter post-grad life and has adjusted to my changes in order to help me with the next phase of life. She is truly amazing and I 100% recommend her services.

Dr. Richardson has been a God-sent. She is professional, kind, insightful, and skillful. Her compassionate approach, insightful guidance, and dedication to my well-being have been invaluable. I’ve made significant progress and gained valuable tools to manage my mental health, health from past trauma, and navigate my depression/eating disorders. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking support and healing.

the only word that can describe Dr. richardson is amazing. She is very patient with her client. She allows us to fully articulate whatever is on our mind and what is bothering us and then she does a deep dive with analytical thinking to provide sound resolution that will be beneficial for her client, she is not someone who will just take your side just because you are her client. She will look at every single aspect and provide the best counsel. I can truly say it is a blessing, having her in my life and being in my therapist and words could not explain how she has changed my life , so if you’re thinking about Therapy, she is amazing. Try her out.

I've been seeing Clairissa for therapy, and I can't recommend her highly enough. She is not only educated and knowledgeable but also incredibly wonderful. Her kindness and patience create a safe space where I feel comfortable opening up. She is supportive and has helped me navigate through some tough times. I'm grateful to have her as my therapist.

it a privilege to write a review for Clarissa. She has been a gift as I navigate needed coping skills. Clarissa is extremely knowledgeable and had an amazing ability to guide with accurate practices for successful behavior. She has provided warmth and patience and anyone who is fortunate to learn from her will agree. Without hesitation I will say Clarissa is a gem.

Clairissa is fantastic, not only is she extremely kind, compassionate, and professional but she makes a point to make me feel heard. She's wonderful at recalling information from our previous sessions and makes sure I'm always comfortable as well as understanding what she's saying. She is giving me great resources to help my anxiety and depression and really makes it feel like this is something we are fighting together while letting me know seeking treatment is courageous and that I'm doing great. I highly recommend Clairissa to anyone struggling, I've had bad experiences with therapists before and she is just absolutely wonderful. I am so happy to have found her.
