Greetings!

I'm Corey, board-certified Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, comprehensive mental health care for individuals across the lifespan. At the heart of my practice is a commitment to truly listening to your story and working with you to create a personalized path toward healing, balance, and improved well-being.

With a strong foundation in both nursing and psychiatry, I offer an integrative approach to mental health that combines thoughtful medication management with supportive, therapeutic care. I work with individuals facing a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, trauma, and stress-related conditions.

I believe in treating the whole person—not just symptoms. My approach is collaborative, respectful, and rooted in evidence-based practices. Whether you're seeking a new diagnosis, exploring treatment options, or need ongoing support to maintain your mental health, I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered.

Clients often come to me because they value thoughtful insight, nonjudgmental support, creativity, and a results-oriented mindset. I believe that the right help—delivered with empathy and expertise—can make all the difference.

Taking the first step can feel overwhelming—but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to help you move forward, with care that meets you where you are.

Let’s begin! To schedule your complementary 15 min consultation please visit http://www.specialtouchholisticcarern.org/services

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I believe therapy should be a space where you can show up exactly as you are. Life can be challenging, especially when you're navigating change, feeling stuck, struggling with relationships, or questioning your next steps. My goal is to create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable exploring these challenges and developing the tools needed to move forward.

I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, stress, self-esteem concerns, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I am particularly passionate about helping individuals who feel stuck between where they are and where they want to be. Whether you're adjusting to a new season of life, facing a difficult decision, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy can provide a space to gain clarity, build confidence, and create meaningful change.

I view therapy as a collaborative process. You are the expert on your life, and I am here to provide guidance, support, and practical strategies to help you reach your goals.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in New Bern, NC

Searching for therapists in New Bern starts with finding someone whose background fits what you want support with. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or major life changes. If you are looking for marriage counseling in New Bern, NC, it can also help to look for therapists who list couples therapy, communication concerns, conflict patterns, or family relationships in their specialties. Review each therapist’s profile for training, therapy style, and areas of focus, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or family systems work.

In a smaller city like New Bern, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger North Carolina markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in North Carolina. As you compare therapists, look at whether they are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that fit your schedule, and provide a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also help you understand how they structure sessions, communicate, and approach mental health care before you book.

Therapy in New Bern can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see what you may pay before your first visit. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, verify your insurance details, and view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can browse therapists, compare profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
