Hi, I'm Kory. I'm an experienced mental health therapist with over 10 years of experience providing outpatient therapy to individuals, couples, and families. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and high-stress life challenges. I also enjoy helping people who experience performance anxiety, pressure, self-doubt, and burnout, as well as individuals who want to improve focus, confidence, and emotional resilience in order to reach their potential.
My work focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns, strengthening emotional regulation, and developing practical skills that translate into everyday life, relationships, and personal growth.
I take an integrative therapy approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT). These approaches help individuals heal, take personal responsibility, and overcome unhelpful thinking patterns that may be holding them back.
I encourage clients to quiet their thoughts, focus on their strengths, and become more aware of maladaptive thoughts and behaviors. Together, we work to replace these with healthier thoughts and behaviors that help you move toward your goals.
I strive to build a strong, supportive, and collaborative relationship with my clients so they feel comfortable learning and applying new coping skills that lead to meaningful and lasting change.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kory Wilson. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Kory was empathetic, reasonable, and—in my opinion—doing everything a therapist could be doing, despite the relatively short nature of our time working together (COVID, et. al., 2020). I recommend him without reservation

He's very professional, and really what I've needed is a good listener and he's gilled that position for me perfectly.
