About Corey

Corey Hinson is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina with 12 years of experience supporting people through relationship strain, family conflict, career shifts, and major life changes. She helps with anxiety, depression, grief, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, anger, and self-esteem. Corey also focuses on attachment concerns, blended family issues, codependency, communication problems, and questions about life purpose.

Corey asks questions and listens closely to understand each person's history and priorities. She talks through the roots of the current problem so people can make clearer choices. Sessions include practical skills and feedback when useful. She uses plain language and short-term strategies when that fits the person's goals.

Her practice draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy along with client-centered approaches and cognitive behavioral methods. Corey also uses mindfulness exercises, motivational interviewing, and narrative techniques when appropriate. These approaches are used to help people name difficult emotions, change unhelpful patterns, and try new behaviors in relationships and daily life.

Corey often helps people move from feeling stuck to having clearer next steps. She works in a collaborative way and checks in about what is working in session. For many people, a few focused sessions bring relief and practical change; others continue longer for deeper work.

Sessions are offered in English. International clients are not accepted. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the platform's See online therapy options button.

How her approaches guide online sessions

Corey works from Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and name intense emotions and change interaction patterns that keep causing pain. EFT can be helpful when feelings around attachment and closeness are hard to name or lead to repeating conflicts.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, reflecting, and supporting each person’s own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try concrete behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or impulsive responses.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Corey treats the selection as a collaboration - she will talk with clients about goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when life is hectic. They also allow using mindfulness exercises, emotion-focused conversations, and CBT worksheets during a session without needing to be in the office.
