About Corey
Corey Phillips is an LPC who helps people facing anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship difficulties. He aims to make sessions straightforward and focused so busy people can get practical help quickly. Corey listens first.
He asks about what feels hard now and what a better day would look like. Conversations are aimed at understanding patterns, improving communication, and reducing overwhelm rather than staying stuck on problems. He uses client-centered methods to follow each person's pace and priorities.
Background and approach
Mindfulness tools are offered to manage racing thoughts and physical tension. Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change when they feel stuck. Corey has five years of clinical experience working with issues like trauma, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic pain, and addiction.
He draws on trauma-focused and solution-focused techniques to help people stabilize after painful events and set short-term goals they can actually reach. Sessions are delivered remotely, which Corey says can allow therapy to fit into a crowded day. He works with people who want direct, practical steps alongside space to process emotions.
The aim is clearer thinking, steadier mood, and better relationships over time.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on following the client's lead and building a trusting working relationship, which helps people feel heard and understood even when meeting remotely. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to reduce anxiety and manage physical tension during stressful moments. Motivational interviewing is a conversational style that helps people clarify their goals and find internal motivation for change, useful when deciding on steps to improve mood or relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options, try techniques, and adapt methods to what fits the client's needs and preferences. That collaborative process helps pick tools that actually feel helpful for each person.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows visual connection and shared exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins and ongoing support more convenient between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while still working toward steady improvement.
