About Corey
As a licensed therapist in North Carolina, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each client’s unique journey, with expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, and personal growth.
I focus on helping clients explore self-love, communication skills, and healing from isolation, shame, and past traumas. My therapeutic work spans a wide range of life experiences, from workplace stress and relationship dynamics to managing mood/personality disorders and personal transitions.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I create a supportive environment where clients can develop resilience, understand their inner experiences, and cultivate meaningful change. Whether you’re struggling with social anxiety, seeking purpose, or working through significant life challenges, I’m committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional guidance.
My practice honors the complexity of human experience, offering a non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and potential for personal transformation.

- “Amazing therapist with a vast knowledge of how to help and empathize with me. Highly recommended. He also has a fantastic response time and is extremely respectful in all aspects of treatment.”
- “Working with Corey Pitts has been such a positive and life changing experience. He listens without judgment, asks thoughtful questions, and helps me see things in new ways. I feel comfortable being completely open during our sessions, which isn’t easy for me normally. Corey has given me strategies I can use right away, and I’ve already noticed growth in myself. I’m so grateful for his support and highly recommend him to anyone seeking a caring and effective therapist.”
- “Corey is very down to earth in his approach in counseling. He has great insight into seeing things from all sides of different perspectives helping see things from different angels”
- “Corey has been the most compassionate, wonderful therapist in all the time I've had with him. Throughout the week, anytime I send a message, he responds, whether it's a trivial matter or something important- and the responses are always well-thought. He has gone above and beyond the realms of what I thought possible with therapy. Discussions with Corey are always insightful. He is thoughtful in every single response, and is willing to admit when he has said something confusing[though those instances are few and far between]. Corey is such a wonderful therapist, I cannot even fully convey all that I want to convey in this review. I feel very lucky to have been able to work with Corey. The positive impact he has had on my life is immense. I reccomend that if you have a chance to have him as your therapist, that you take it.”

- “I have been in therapy with Corey for almost two years now, and I can honestly say that my life today is completely different from when I started therapy. Corey has helped me work through and accept significant trauma in my life and continues to be this beacon of light for me. He's incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and you can just tell he truly cares about his clients. Thank you, Corey, for helping me to change my life and find my voice. :-)”
- “He’s neutral and I like that”
- “Corey is an amazing person to talk with and work with. He's always made me feel valid in my feelings and my situation and has worked with me to help with my mental health struggles and also provided an outlet for me to express the feelings I least often express.”
- “I've only been with Corey for two weeks. This was my first experience with a therapist. Corey has helped me navigate through some very difficult emotions that I had going on. He has checked in on me periodically between sessions. I highly recommend Corey to anyone who needs someone who is going through a rough time in life and feel like you're all alone and don't know how to process all what's going on mentally and emotionally. He's does really well at helping you sort through what's going on in a comfortable and non judgemental manner.”
