I’m Porche Corley, a Clinical Social Worker licensed in both Georgia and Colorado.

In addition to my licensure, I hold the Board Certified-TeleMental Health Provider and Human Services-Board Certified Practitioner credentials from the Center for Credentialing and Education. I am also a certified Clinical Trauma Professional and certified specialist in anger management and grief/loss. I am deeply passionate about helping individuals navigate these challenges with compassion, support, and understanding. What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you? The first session is all about building trust and creating a strong foundation for our work together. I’ll ask thoughtful questions designed to understand your unique experiences, perspectives, and goals. It’s an opportunity for us to establish a safe and open space where you can share what’s important to you, and I can gain a deeper understanding of how I can best support you. This session is not just about gathering information—it’s about making sure we’re on the same page, with a clear understanding of what you hope to achieve moving forward. While this first meeting serves as a starting point, I want to emphasize that our approach will be tailored to your needs and preferences. Over time, we’ll refine our work together to ensure it stays aligned with your evolving goals and personal growth. Ultimately, this is a collaborative, supportive journey, and I’m here to help guide you every step of the way. Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths. In my sessions, I strive to create an environment that feels safe, compassionate, and empowering. I understand that therapy often involves vulnerability, so I focus on building a space where clients feel truly seen, understood, and supported. My tone is both empathetic and encouraging—I meet each client where they are, offering validation and kindness, while gently challenging them to grow. Our work together is collaborative and client-centered. I tailor my approach to each individual, incorporating creativity and practical strategies to promote healing, skill-building, and self-discovery. Above all, my clients often share that they feel respected and heard, with the freedom to explore their thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment. Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve. With 6 years of experience, I specialize in providing compassionate, evidence-based therapy to individuals and families dealing with a wide range of concerns, including anger/aggression, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma.

6 years offering treatment
I am a licensed clinical mental health therapist in Georgia, with 6 years of professional work experience. I have a range of expertise, but specialize in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, and intimacy related issues. Challenging circumstances and particular seasons of life have the potential to distract and throw us off course, causing life to feel out of control and confusing. Sometimes a fresh perspective can remind you of who you are, point you in the right direction, and provide new tools and resources to get you where you want to go and bring balance back into your life. Together we can explore your goals, strengths/weaknesses, and unique personality to make sense of your current struggles and leverage new opportunities for growth and change. My style is warm and empathetic, and my approach is collaborative and tailored to your particular needs and values. Give yourself permission to take the time you need, in a safe and accepting environment, to discover the best version of yourself and to unleash the power within you to create a life that is fulfilling, intentional, authentic, and meaningful.
