Sessions are practical but allow space for deeper reflection about values and purpose. Corey offers video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging sessions. He works in English and holds NC LCMHC and OR LPC credentials.

Online support
How core approaches shape online work
Existential therapy focuses on questions of meaning, choice, and responsibility. It helps when someone feels lost, stuck, or unsure about direction in life by encouraging honest reflection on values and priorities.Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the person’s experience. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is heard, and supports each person in finding their own answers and strengths.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Corey will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. This collaboration helps adapt sessions if something is not working.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules and different communication styles. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers a back-and-forth option without audio, and text-based messaging supports short check-ins or homework between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel demands.
