About Porsche

Porsche Laster is an LPC in Georgia with 20 years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and challenges with self-esteem.

Background and approach

She brings a multicultural perspective to her work and has supported individuals facing addiction, life transitions, caregiver strain, workplace difficulties, and a range of emotional concerns such as guilt, shame, impulsivity, and social anxiety. Her approach centers on listening closely and helping clients explore practical ways to move forward.

Porsche prioritizes creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can express thoughts and feelings and collaborate on goals. She draws on a range of evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-focused work to address symptoms and patterns, while also incorporating client-centered and solution-focused strategies as appropriate.

Her practice emphasizes pacing that suits each person, and she encourages those taking the first step toward therapy by acknowledging the courage involved in beginning the process.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care

CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and introduces concrete skills to test and change patterns that maintain anxiety or depression, making it useful for stress management and mood concerns. Trauma-focused therapy provides structured ways to process traumatic events and reduce their ongoing impact, often combining stabilization skills with gradual processing to address post-traumatic stress and related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Porsche works with clients to clarify goals, preferences, and immediate needs, and then suggests methods that align with those priorities. Together they may blend elements of CBT, client-centered techniques, or trauma-focused strategies to create a plan that feels manageable and goal-oriented.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing people to access care around work, caregiving, or geographic constraints. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to practice skills between sessions, while allowing the therapist and client to adapt format and pacing as progress unfolds.
