Hi, my name is Corine. I am a Clinical Social Worker and Therapist. I offer telehealth therapy sessions. My work with clients is goal oriented, person centered and strengths based. I help clients focus on empowering themselves to make informed decisions for their mental health and overall well being. I start where the client is and validate where they are coming from. I help clients identify their strengths, thinking patterns, and coping skills.

I work with many clients from many different backgrounds and cultures. My priority and number one goal is to enhance their lives and over all psychological functioning and wellbeing. I am not here to fix you, as you are not broken. My main goal is to help every single client to actualize and become the best version of themselves. I approach each client as an individual, with respect, dignity, and sensitivity. I view myself as working alongside each client towards creating more fulfilling opportunities, while reducing long standing negative behaviors, feelings, and thought patterns.

The enormous number of stressors we now face daily are unreal: work, inflation, heat, despair, isolation, disconnection. All of this is tremendously difficult to manage on one's own. Anxiety, anger, depression, resentment, boredom. Zombie states, exhaustion, sadness, rage, denial. If you are struggling with any of this - or any of the other states that often bring people to therapy, like emptiness, grief, rigidity, feeling lost or overwhelmed, relationship issues, lack of direction - it's worth investing the time and effort to get help, get grounded and figure out a better path forward.

Therapy is ultimately meant to be a life altering process, from how you understand your personal challenges and problematic situations to how you choose your coping strategies and the options you see as possible for your life. It is my goal to guide and support you through this therapeutic experience to help you create a higher quality of life that resonates with your true self. Therapy starts where you are at, and it progresses one step at a time. I approach my clients with commitment, integrity and a vision of positive growth.

My practice focuses on helping to heal relationships. This starts with learning how to communicate more effectively & taking ownership of what needs to change in order for the relationship to progress. Common communication errors are at the root of most arguments. I can help you to identify your triggers and teach you and your partner how to respect one another so everyone feels heard. I will teach you how to set & achieve small goals each week, that will positively change your lives. I provide straightforward advice & will help you & your partner or you alone until your partner is ready to take the first BIG step into therapy.

I believe that each of us has the innate ability to make positive changes in our lives. Sometimes it takes a trained professional to help guide us on that journey. My practice offers that support to families and individuals seeking therapy for issues ranging from depression, anxiety, addiction and parenting challenges. Working together to meet your goals is my priority. Making the initial call may start you on the course to reaching those goals.

Are you feeling anxious or overwhelmed? Stressed or defeated? Life seems complex in new and insurmountable ways these days. Many people struggle to find answers to problems they were never prepared for. I know it’s hard to acknowledge that we don’t know what to do. I understand the weight of asking yourself “Where do I go from here?” I support my clients by providing clarity on how their behavior and unresolved issues affect them in their daily lives. I help my clients slow down and understand what's going on cognitively and physically so that we can break cycles and create new strategies to start finishing unfinished business.

Many of us will experience anxiety, depression, or trauma in our lifetime.

And, if you're reading this, you've probably tried everything to fix it. You may have believed that nothing could change or get better. I am here to help you challenge those beliefs and provide you with a set of skills to help you cope with your distress.
