About Corey

Corey Pitts is a licensed counselor who practices in North Carolina. He holds LCMHC and LPC credentials and brings 13 years of clinical experience to his work with people facing depression, anxiety, and major life transitions.

Corey focuses on helping people rebuild self-worth and repair communication with others. He uses straightforward conversation to identify patterns that keep someone stuck. Sessions often center on small, practical steps the client can try between meetings.

He helps clients notice how thoughts and behaviors connect, and then practices new ways of responding. That can include managing strong emotion, coping with grief, or reducing the hold of addictive behavior. Corey also supports people facing career strain, caregiver stress, and identity questions related to LGBT life.

His style is warm and nonjudgmental. He listens closely and adapts methods to each person rather than following one fixed plan. People work at their own pace and set goals that matter to them.

Corey draws on a mix of therapeutic approaches to fit different concerns. He blends person-centered conversation with practical skills and longer-term exploration of meaning. This combination is used to address everything from immediate coping to deeper personal growth.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic listening and the client’s own goals; it helps people feel heard and decide what matters most to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills that can be useful when strong emotions or self-destructive urges get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to each person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That means adjusting the balance of supportive listening, skills training, and deeper exploration as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online work, confirm current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also make it simpler to try out a therapist and adjust scheduling without rearranging your day.
