Corey Hinson

Corey Hinson, LCSW, helps people work through anger and related struggles. She listens without judgment and lets clients lead the conversation about what matters most. Her approach is straightforward and focused on practical steps people can use right away.

Corey asks questions to understand each person’s story and what they value. She helps identify the roots of problems like stress, anxiety, relationship strain, or grief. Then she works with clients to build clear strategies that fit their life and goals.

Sessions often include tools for managing strong emotions, improving communication, and changing unhelpful thought patterns. Mindfulness and brief behavior changes are used to reduce reactivity and increase calm. When motivation feels low, she draws on motivational interviewing to support small, achievable change.

Corey practices from a client-centered stance, which means clients are treated with respect and their priorities guide the work. She combines that stance with cognitive behavioral ideas, narrative techniques, and emotionally-focused methods when those fit someone’s needs. The aim is to help people feel more confident about next steps.

She holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential in North Carolina and brings 12 years of experience in counseling and mediation. Corey typically guides people toward relief and clearer choices within a few months, while adjusting the pace to match each person’s situation.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. The therapist offers empathy and supports the person in setting the pace and goals for therapy, which helps when dealing with anger, relationship strain, or life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Sessions include simple exercises to notice unhelpful thoughts and practice different responses, which can reduce reactivity and improve coping with stress or anxiety.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on understanding emotional patterns in close relationships. It helps people identify what they need emotionally and practice new ways of communicating, useful when intimacy or attachment issues are present.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice is adjusted as progress is made, so the plan can change if something isn’t helpful.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life. Online work can make it simpler to attend from different locations, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed.
