About Corey
Corey Cunningham is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) based in Illinois who works with people navigating concerns such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and family issues, self-esteem, stress, career questions, and coping with life changes.
Background and approach
Corey brings a strengths-focused perspective that highlights the resilience a person has already used to manage challenges, and aims to help clients convert that resilience into practical tools for daily life. Corey integrates body-centered techniques alongside talk-based support, inviting gentle movement and increased nervous system awareness when it feels helpful.
Sessions may begin with a cultural touchstone like a song, photo, or short video to ground conversation and build connection. As a queer, non-binary clinician who also identifies as AuDHD and lives with chronic illness, Corey emphasizes honoring each client’s whole experience and accommodations as part of care.
With five years of clinical experience, Corey offers an accepting, low-judgment environment intended to support growth, self-understanding, and authentic expression. Prospective clients in Illinois can learn more and schedule a session by following the matching and scheduling process provided by the site.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Corey uses client-centered therapy to prioritize each person's goals and values, creating space to explore identity, relationships, and life direction while following the client's lead. This approach helps when the main aim is to be heard, understood, and guided toward self-directed change.Somatic therapy is also part of the work and involves attention to bodily sensations, breathing, and gentle movement to support regulation and processing of stored stress or trauma. These methods can complement talk-based exploration when anxiety, chronic stress, or post-traumatic responses show up in the body.
Finding the right approach is collaborative rather than predetermined. Corey will work with clients to determine which combination of client-centered conversation and somatic practice best matches their needs, goals, and comfort level, and will adjust methods over time as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Corey is offered through flexible formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it possible to access care from different locations, fit sessions into busy schedules, and continue work between meetings through messaging when helpful. Licensed professionals can adapt therapeutic tools to each format, and sessions can be arranged to match individual preferences and availability.
