About Cory

Cory Russell is an LPC based in South Carolina with 11 years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and a wide range of life and relationship challenges.

Background and approach

He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a central method to help clients notice patterns in thinking, feeling, and behaving, then build practical strategies to reduce overwhelm and work toward meaningful goals. Cory aims to empower people to make sustainable changes that improve day-to-day functioning and emotional well-being.

He also integrates attachment-focused and trauma-informed perspectives when relationships or past wounds shape current struggles, helping clients make sense of difficult dynamics and develop more supported ways of relating. Sessions are offered with flexibility across formats to fit different schedules and needs, and Cory emphasizes a collaborative stance so clients feel guided rather than directed.

Those interested in starting therapy are invited to schedule a session and work together toward clearer direction, validation, and problem solving.

Practical approaches for online therapy and relationship work

Attachment-Based Therapy centers on how early and current relationship patterns influence thoughts, emotions, and interactions. It helps when difficulties with trust, closeness, or recurring conflict contribute to distress by exploring relational needs and learning new ways to connect. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood; it emphasizes concrete skills and homework that translate into everyday life.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Cory works together with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting plans as progress unfolds so the work stays relevant and practical. This partnership helps tailor strategies whether the focus is on symptom management, improving relationships, or processing past events.

Online therapy with flexible formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to access care from different locations. These options support consistent work between appointments and offer ways to engage that match personal comfort and scheduling constraints, allowing licensed professionals to deliver focused, skill-based interventions across distance.
