About Corey

Corey Hinson is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing big changes and hard feelings. She works with people coping with relationships, family strain, career transitions, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and other life changes. Her approach is direct and practical: she listens, asks questions, and helps people figure out next steps.

In sessions she focuses on understanding where a problem started and what keeps it going now. She offers tools and skills for mental health and self-growth when they fit the situation. The goal is to help people feel clearer and more confident about what to do next.

Corey uses a mix of methods based on what each person needs. This can include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, mindfulness practices, and Motivational Interviewing. She adapts those approaches to match a person’s goals and situation.

She has 12 years of experience and holds an LCSW, which means Licensed Clinical Social Worker, practicing in North Carolina. Many people begin to notice relief within a few months when they work consistently on the issues they bring.

Corey aims to empower strengths and support wellbeing through life’s challenges. If someone wants help sorting through relationship concerns, stress, or a big life shift, she offers a clear, respectful way to talk it through and plan next steps.

How core approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes what matters to the individual and creates space for people to speak about their concerns. It helps with stress, life change, and decisions by making the person’s priorities central to each session. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical tools for shifting them. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and habit change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Corey will listen to a person’s goals and try different methods to see what helps. The decision about which techniques to use is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.

Confirm which session options are available before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use mindfulness exercises and skills practice between meetings, so therapy can extend into daily routines.
