Cursha Pierce-Lunderman , LCSW, CSW

Cursha Pierce-Lunderman is a licensed social worker in Georgia with ten years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, self-esteem concerns, and career transitions. She holds the credentials LCSW and CSW - LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker and CSW is a Certified Social Worker - and applies a strengths-based framework to help clients uncover choices and resources that allow them to unlearn harmful messaging and manage persistent symptoms.

Her practice emphasizes practical skill-building around boundaries, thought work, and clearer communication. She incorporates role plays, affirmations, accountability measures, and guided introspective exercises to help clients quiet external pressures and reconnect with sources of joy and authenticity. As a Black woman, she intentionally integrates attention to diversity and cultural context into therapeutic work, encouraging clients to embrace their distinct qualities rather than shrinking to fit expectations.

Sessions remain focused on each person’s goals, with the therapist avoiding a prescriptive agenda and instead partnering to strengthen confidence, improve communication, and navigate life transitions such as divorce, postpartum adjustment, workplace challenges, or grief. Her approach blends evidence-informed techniques and compassionate direction to support sustainable change and self-led growth.

Evidence-based approaches and remote care

Cursha Pierce-Lunderman uses a strengths-based approach that helps people identify existing resources and personal strengths to counter negative messaging and build resilience. This approach supports clients facing stress, low self-esteem, and life transitions by emphasizing choice and practical steps toward meaningful goals.

She also draws on cognitive techniques that focus on identifying and challenging unhelpful thoughts, which can reduce anxiety and improve emotional regulation. Alongside this, communication skills training - including role plays and direct practice - helps clients strengthen boundaries, navigate relationships, and address workplace or family conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with each person to tailor techniques to their needs, goals, and preferences. Clients and therapist together evaluate what works and adjust the plan over time.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from home, support continuity during busy periods, and allow clients to choose the communication style that fits their life and therapeutic goals.
