Welcome, I'm Cory. I work with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start—especially those navigating identity, trauma, and life transitions. Many of my clients are 2SLGBTQ+ or seeking a therapist who truly affirms their experience. Together, we make sense of what’s been heavy, explore patterns, and build tools to help you feel more grounded, clear, and aligned in your life.
I’m a therapist and social work professor offering affirming, culturally responsive care. My approach is collaborative and relational, drawing from narrative, cultural, and trauma-informed practices. I hold space each session for you—whether that’s processing emotions, exploring identity, or building practical skills for change.
Starting or renewing your journey with therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’re unsure where to begin. You don’t have to have it all figured out. I’ll meet you with warmth, curiosity, and respect as we move at your pace. If you’re ready to begin, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
