How Korey works
He prefers a straightforward, solution-focused style that looks for small changes that add up. Sessions often include skill practice, goal-setting, and steps to manage difficult feelings between visits. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Motivational Interviewing is used to strengthen a person’s own reasons for change. Solution-Focused Therapy guides short-term planning and practical next steps when a quick shift is the goal. Korey listens for feelings that have been hard to say out loud, and helps people name and express those emotions.

Korey offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches that guide online sessions
CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy translate well to remote care. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify thoughts and actions that keep problems going. It often involves simple exercises and behavior changes to try between sessions and suits anxiety, mood, and OCD-related concerns.Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person’s own reasons for change. The therapist asks questions that help clarify goals and resolve mixed feelings about change, which is useful for addictions, motivation problems, and behavior shifts. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, practical steps and on what will look different when things improve, making it good for short-term goals and transition periods.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration includes checking progress and adjusting strategies over time.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video allows face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging offer quick, on-the-go options for brief support or follow-up between meetings. These options increase flexibility and help people keep momentum with therapy during life’s demands.
