  • Anxiety and depression
  • Blended family issues
  • CBT and DBT methods

About Kory

Kory Wilson is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Utah with 11 years of experience. He focuses on common concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, grief, and problems that come with major life changes. He also lists blended family issues among his additional focus areas.

Kory uses straightforward, skills-based work aimed at changing unhelpful thought patterns. He helps people spot thoughts that get in the way, learn emotional regulation skills, and try new behaviors that fit daily life. Sessions emphasize concrete tools that can be used between appointments.

Clients who come for help with low self-esteem, performance anxiety, or burnout will find a practical approach. Kory also supports people dealing with anger, mood disorders, and the challenges of separation or divorce. He mentions coaching-style work for people wanting to improve focus or confidence.

His methods draw on cognitive behavioral techniques and strategies from dialectical behavior work and mindfulness. That means you can expect exercises to track thoughts, practice coping skills, and use breathing or attention exercises to steady mood. Progress is tracked against real-life goals rather than abstract concepts.

Kory describes the therapeutic relationship as collaborative. He helps people experiment with different tools and decide which ones fit their situation. If you are juggling a stephousehold or figuring out co-parenting or blended family roles, he lists blended family issues as a focus to address those practical challenges.

Approaches used and how online work fits

Client-centered work focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people clarify their goals and choose the skills they want to practice in daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and gives clear exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods to try based on your needs, goals, and how you respond to early exercises. Together you can adjust the plan as progress or new concerns appear.

Confirm the therapist's current session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific online options. In general, online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to practice skills in real-life settings and bring day-to-day examples into sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and client-centered exercises for remote work so people still use worksheets, behavior tracking, and mindfulness practices between sessions.
