About Kory Wilson

Hi, I’m Kory. I’m an experienced mental health therapist with over 10 years of experience providing outpatient therapy to individuals, couples, and families. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and high-stress life challenges. I also enjoy helping people who experience performance anxiety, pressure, self-doubt, and burnout, as well as individuals who want to improve focus, confidence, and emotional resilience in order to reach their potential.

My work focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns, strengthening emotional regulation, and developing practical skills that translate into everyday life, relationships, and personal growth.

I take an integrative therapy approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT). These approaches help individuals heal, take personal responsibility, and overcome unhelpful thinking patterns that may be holding them back.

I encourage clients to quiet their thoughts, focus on their strengths, and become more aware of maladaptive thoughts and behaviors. Together, we work to replace these with healthier thoughts and behaviors that help you move toward your goals.

I strive to build a strong, supportive, and collaborative relationship with my clients so they feel comfortable learning and applying new coping skills that lead to meaningful and lasting change.

“Kory was empathetic, reasonable, and—in my opinion—doing everything a therapist could be doing, despite the relatively short nature of our time working together (COVID, et. al., 2020). I recommend him without reservation”

“He's very professional, and really what I've needed is a good listener and he's gilled that position for me perfectly.”

“Kory is a great therapist.”

“He is great and I want Kory all to myself.”

“Kory is very calm and accommodating and validating.”

“Kory is very encouraging and supportive and I am grateful”

“Kory is incredibly kind and a great listener. I really appreciate the client led approach as he allows me to explore my own thoughts and feelings-while also providing feedback and framework. Kory provides the encouragement I need, as I am learning to trust myself. Highly recommend Kory, especially to anyone who may be nervous about starting therapy or needs someone who is highly approachable.”

“He's simply excellent!!! He's fantastic at both listening and conversing about issues and I always feel great for a solid week after talking with him!!!!! <br /> 5 stars for sure :)”

“Kory is a highly engaged listener who offers real tools and skills to deal with issues.<br /> <br /> Kory has never made me feel judged, only supported. I can’t recommend BetterHelp or Kory enough.”
