About Corey

Corey Hinson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with 12 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with relationship strain, family conflict, career stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction concerns, trauma, parenting challenges, and problems with anger and self-esteem. She speaks English and works with adults on practical ways to move forward.

Corey keeps conversations direct and focused. She asks questions to understand a person's history and what matters most to them. Together they identify the roots of a problem and work out concrete steps to reduce stress and conflict. She offers feedback and teaches skills for managing emotions and behavior.

Her background includes clinical social work practice and mediation. Corey draws from approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. She uses these methods to help people notice patterns, shift unhelpful thoughts, and practice new responses.

Sessions aim to clear confusion so people feel more confident about next steps. Corey often focuses on tools that can be used between sessions, like grounding practices, communication techniques, and thought-challenging exercises. She explains techniques in simple terms so they are easy to try in daily life.

People commonly see progress in weeks to months as they practice new skills and make small changes. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled so goals can be set and a plan agreed on.

How sessions work

How Corey uses evidence-based approaches online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people clarify goals and feel understood while they decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves noticing thought patterns and testing them with small behavioral experiments to reduce stress and reactivity. CBT is useful for anger, anxiety, and depression. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions drive interactions and helps people identify and express feelings in ways that change relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Corey will discuss these methods with the client and decide together which fits current goals and preferences. That collaborative choice shapes the plan for sessions and the skills practiced between meetings.

Session format details are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when a quick reset is needed, and reduce time spent traveling. They also let people practice new communication or grounding skills in settings similar to their daily life. Corey combines conversation, skill-building, and follow-up suggestions so online work ties directly to everyday challenges.
