About Korey

Korey Fisher-Wellman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with 15 years of experience. He trained in psychology and social work and has worked mainly in the public child welfare field. Korey helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, and struggles with mood and attention.

He uses practical, conversational methods in sessions. That includes client-centered work that focuses on a person's priorities, cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and solution-focused steps to set short-term goals. Motivational interviewing shows up when someone wants help making changes related to substance use or other habits.

Korey’s background includes roles in child welfare and social services. That experience informs how he talks about parenting stress, blended family challenges, caregiver strain, and communication problems. He also addresses abandonment and attachment issues, divorce and separation, men's issues, and compassion fatigue related to caregiving roles.

Sessions are intended to be straightforward and goal-oriented. Korey works with people on career stress, self-esteem, bipolar and other mood concerns, post-traumatic stress, and coping with life changes. He also supports clients around LGBT issues, intimacy-related struggles, and anger management.

Korey provides care in English and accepts international clients. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the site.

BHow sessions work

How Korey’s approaches translate to online work

Korey commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy in his practice. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change patterns that increase anxiety or low mood. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and clear goals to make progress in everyday life.

Client-centered work is also part of his approach. That means the therapist listens to what matters most to the person and shapes sessions around those priorities. Finding the right mix of methods is treated as a collaborative process; Korey and the client discuss goals and adjust techniques as they go.

The practical benefits of online sessions are framed around fitting therapy into daily life. Online work can make it easier to schedule sessions around work, school, or caregiving duties and can reduce travel time. Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since options are not specified here. The main aim is to make sessions manageable and useful within the client’s routine while working together on the issues that brought them to therapy.
