01About Corey
Corey Pitts is a licensed counselor who has worked in mental health for 13 years. He holds a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential and a Licensed Professional Counselor credential and practices in North Carolina. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles through straightforward talk and steady support.
Corey uses a practical, person-focused style. Sessions are collaborative and aim to identify immediate steps that make life easier.
Background and approach
He listens for what matters most to each person and helps build coping skills that fit daily life. In therapy he addresses a wide range of concerns, including trauma and grief, addictions, mood concerns such as bipolar disorder, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. He also works with people dealing with career strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and body image concerns.
The work often blends short-term skill building with deeper reflection. Corey draws on several approaches such as client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior strategies. He adapts these tools to the needs of the person in front of him rather than following a fixed script.
People can expect clear goals, skills practice, and room to reflect. Sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging to fit different routines. To begin, a short questionnaire helps match needs and preferences before scheduling a first session.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the person's lead. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change or understand about themselves.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships through mindfulness and practical coping tools.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that fit those needs. That collaboration helps decide whether to focus on skills, deeper exploration, or a mix of both.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people keep face-to-face connection without traveling. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when a shorter touchpoint fits the day. These options provide flexibility to fit sessions into busy lives and make consistent work more manageable.
