If you are ready for a new beginning, schedule a session today. I am flexible with sessions as well. I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, ADD, ODD, parenting concerns, adjustment issues, relationship problems, and issues problem solving. In addition to the different areas I focus on, I am flexible with sessions.
My primary therapeutic approach is called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). This approach is useful in addressing how you think, feel, and behave. It is my belief that how we think, makes us feel, and we behave accordingly. My goal is to address your life’s struggles with strategies that allow you to be more empowered to maintain changes (i.e. healthier thinking, feeling, and behaving), reach goals, and feel less overwhelmed with all of the things that are going on in your world.
We sometimes are in need of direction, validation, and make sense of what is going on in our world. As your therapist, you will not be alone in this journey.

With the few sessions I had with Cory he helped me realize and rationalize things about myself and how I conduct myself with others. He’s very kind and respectful and clearly has a lot of knowledge and passion for what he does. If I am to come back to betterhelp I would 100% come back to Cory.

Cory has been great offering advice and tasks for me to complete
Written on Oct 19, 2023 after therapy with Cory for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, anger management, and career difficulties
Cory has been astounding. He has helped me to understand, though I may know what is going on around me, that there are always better ways to maneuver and see things from multiple angles.
How to take a situation and analyze it without frustration, without anger and to help in the acceptance of the things that we cannot change.
He's been helpful in the short time that we have spent together thus far.

The best thing I did for myself for 2022 was get from from Betterhelp and more specifically, from Cory. He has been incredible and I recommend him without hesitation. I'll be back to continue my sessions soon.

Probably not the best to put a survey out when you’re half way through learning things. This survey came out when I was like, no, I don’t see it that way. So put surveys at the end of the experience.

Cory has been a great therapist.
He listens and gives me actionable advise that has helped me tremendously.
He has a very good energy and I feel positive after each session with him.
He has a good sense of humour about my incorrect self-diagnoses and is not condescending at all.
I highly recommend him.
Written on Jan 07, 2022 after therapy with Cory for 3 months on issues concerning adhd
It has been an absolute pleasure working with Cory. He has been a comforting, stabilising presence in my life at a time when I have found things going absolutely haywire. Building a good rapport with him was key for the sessions to have a meaningful impact and I was delighted to be able to build it so quickly. His ability to make pointed observations and ask direct and thought-provoking questions have allowed me to understand myself better and introspect much more. His advocacy for a goal-oriented, incremental approach to self-improvement and problem solving strongly resonated with me and helped me chart a course to work on independently. I hope to touch base with him again at some point in the future to assess where things stand after working on the strategies we have set out. I would highly recommend him as a therapist to anyone seeking help.

I have had only three sessions with Cory Russell so far but they have been more than helpful. He is very easy to talk to, I was able to talk through my emotions while feeling safe and welcoming. Cory also asks the few right questions and nails the cause of my problem, which shows how talented he is.

Cory has been a massive help for me to cope with the big change that happened in my life and my kids. He is very professional, calm and the tools he used for me to better understand who I really am and what I can overcome, I must say are very effective. I have problems with family conflicts, separation, confidence, anxiety and depression and how to lift myself up from being broken. He helped me tremendously. I highly recommend Cory.

I am honestly glad I chose to stick around with Russell. He makes communication easy and comfortable. As well he is transparent with feedback, which I greatly appreciate. He may not seem like an ideal fit at first, but give it some time you will find your rhythm with him.

Went through a bit of a situation in regards to my own identity and relationship. Cory would always provide context to help me understand why things would happen the way they would but more importantly, helped me see what areas I need to work on and how to work on them. Thank you!

He is very understanding and gives great unbiased advice. I enjoy our sessions and have learned a few thibgs about myself that I was not aware of. He makes it a safe space to vent without judgement so you feel more inclined to share openly.
