Porter Mckee , LCSW, LICSW

Porter Mckee is a licensed clinical social worker with more than 25 years of experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, abuse, anger, PTSD, depression, and relationship difficulties. He brings a compassionate, steady presence to each session and focuses on practical strategies that help clients manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. As an LCSW and LICSW - both designations indicating advanced clinical social work licensure - he combines clinical knowledge with an emphasis on respect and nonjudgmental listening.

Porter aims to create an open environment where thoughts and feelings can be expressed without fear of criticism, and he encourages clients to take the courageous first step toward a more fulfilling life. His work often includes supporting those coping with mood disorders, panic, attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, and challenges around control, impulsivity, and isolation. He also addresses issues related to men's mental health, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and behaviors linked to narcissism.

Whether helping someone navigate recovery from addiction, process traumatic experiences, or find better ways to handle anger and anxiety, Porter centers the therapeutic relationship as a space for growth, resilience, and renewed well-being.

Evidence-Based Approaches Delivered Online

Porter Mckee uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the challenges people bring, such as stress, anxiety, addiction, and trauma. One common emphasis is on skills-based strategies that teach practical coping tools for managing anxiety, anger, panic, and mood symptoms - these techniques help clients reduce distress and navigate daily demands more effectively. Another focus is trauma-informed work that assists people in processing traumatic experiences and PTSD symptoms while promoting stabilization and gradual healing. A third area centers on addiction support and relapse-prevention planning, which helps clients identify triggers, build recovery routines, and strengthen motivation for change.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Porter collaborates with each person to identify goals, preferences, and needs, and adjusts methods over time so treatment fits the individual rather than forcing a single model. This collaborative stance helps clients feel involved in decisions about their care.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and allow people to continue work on recovery and coping from locations that suit their lives.
