About Corey

Corey Hinson helps people navigate relationship strain, family conflict, career changes, stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, and issues with intimacy and parenting. She is a licensed clinical social worker with 12 years of experience and she speaks English. Corey writes plainly and listens first to understand what matters to each person.

Corey uses a straightforward, conversational approach in sessions. She asks questions to learn a person’s story and then helps identify what keeps the problem going.

02

How Corey works

Together they look at practical steps to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She offers feedback and teaches skills you can try between sessions. Her work draws on several approaches including client-centered care, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused methods, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.

That means she pays attention to emotions, thought patterns, and motivation while helping people practice new ways of coping and connecting. She adapts the tools to fit each person’s goals instead of applying a single formula. Corey has particular experience with attachment and blended family concerns, codependency, communication and control issues, divorce and separation, substance problems, and family of origin wounds.

She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, impulsivity, and questions about life purpose. Her focus is on short-term progress and clearer next steps. Therapy with Corey typically combines listening, practical skill-building, and planning.

She helps people clarify values, set achievable goals, and test small changes. If someone is ready to begin, she guides them through scheduling and the first steps.

Online support options

How Core Approaches Translate to Online Care

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding a person’s experience and priorities. In practice that means the therapist listens closely, reflects what they hear, and helps the person set goals that feel meaningful. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical exercises to change them; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Emotionally-focused therapy pays attention to feelings and close relationships, helping people identify emotions and respond to them in ways that improve connection and reduce conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss these methods with each person and choose techniques that match their goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can shift over time as needs change.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversations and deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or use brief, written support when that works better. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and fit it into real life.

A practical next step

Write down two things you would want to be different in six months. That is the most useful thing to bring to a first session, whoever it is with. If you would rather start now than keep reading, online sessions are the quickest route.
