About Corey
Corey Hinson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with 12 years of experience. She works with people facing relationship struggles, family conflict, career changes, stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and grief. She also addresses intimacy concerns, parenting stress, anger, self-esteem, and questions about life purpose.
Corey keeps conversations direct and practical. She listens, asks clarifying questions, and helps people name what is happening. Sessions focus on understanding the roots of a problem and planning clear steps forward. She offers tools and skills from a few therapy methods to support coping and behavior change.
Her approach combines client-centered listening with techniques from cognitive behavioral work and emotionally-focused methods. Core topics like communication problems, attachment issues, codependency, and blended family tensions are explored with both feeling-focused and action-focused steps. She will talk through impulses, guilt, forgiveness, and the fallout from divorce or domestic violence in straightforward terms.
Corey also uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing strategies when they fit a person’s goals. That can look like short experiments between sessions, reframing patterns, and building practical routines to reduce stress and cravings. She is open about discussing the timeline and next actions so people can make decisions about their lives.
People who meet with Corey can expect a direct, skills-oriented style aimed at reducing immediate distress and improving everyday functioning. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to map out priorities and next steps.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Corey uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on what matters to the person in front of her. That approach means she listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people identify their own goals and priorities. It is useful when someone needs a clearer sense of values and next steps.She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and replace them with more effective strategies. CBT is practical for anxiety, depression, anger, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is used when relationship patterns and attachment needs are central; it helps people recognize emotional cycles and try new ways of connecting.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Corey will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and the problem at hand. She reviews options and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
If you want to meet online, confirm the session formats available before booking since current options are listed during sign-up. Online work can make sessions easier to fit into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a break, or avoiding travel time on a workday. It also allows using mindfulness exercises, homework, and behavioral experiments between meetings to keep momentum going.
