Founded in 1885, the first settlement in Corbin, Kentucky was known as Lynn Camp Station and the post office was called Cummins after the founder, Nelson Cummins. However, because those two names were already in use at other Kentucky cities, the postmaster chose Corbin after Reverend James Corbin Floyd, who was a local minister.
The City of Corbin and surrounding areas have some of the best counselors and therapists who are available to help you with any kind of mental health issues you may have. Whether it is counseling, therapy, or just some advice, contact one of the Corbin area professionals today for an appointment.

Shipra Singh
I have been practicing in the field of mental health since past 15 years. My personal experience with counseling was that there was a safe and non judgmental space, where someone was ethically and empathically devoted towards helping me find peace from chaos, find answers from the turmoil, and finally feel connected to my own self as a person. My primary modality in therapy sessions involves integrated approach, where in I incorporate Person Centered therapy modality to establish an empathetic, non-judgmental, genuinely caring and therapeutic environment where a person can feel safe, comfortable and supported to open up about their qualms and concerns. The other intervention modalities involve Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapies which facilitate the discussion and solution focused phase in the therapy session. My ideal client is anyone who is struggling with daily life stressors, trying to manage symptoms of clinical/non-clinical depression, and anxiety symptoms, sleep issues, PTSD symptoms, Grief, Self Esteem and Self Confidence issues, Generational Trauma challenges, adjustment issues, struggling in academics, career and relationships. Parenting issues. I also specialize in women mental health, and in supporting Perinatal/PostPartum phase women. Overall my goal is to provide a safe space of therapy which provides support not just for the severe mental health, lifestyle and daily life issues and concerns, but also acts as a space for self care !

Julie Smith
Hello, I'm a licensed counselor in Kentucky with nine years of counseling experience. I completed my undergraduate degree with the University of the Cumberlands in 2017, having majored in psychology with a clinical concentration. I obtained my graduate degree in clinical mental health counseling from the University of the Cumberlands in 2020. I generally work from a person-centered approach, incorporating both cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy. Since working with clients during the COVID pandemic, I have been able to adapt my counseling approach to telehealth services, as well. Nearly all of my counseling career, eight years, has been spent with adults coping with trauma related issues, specifically domestic violence, sexual abuse and assault, human trafficking, and stalking. as well as substance use. However, I have found that trauma and substance use are something that anyone can experience, thus I have worked with clients dealing with depression, anxiety, panic, bipolar disorder, anger, obsessive compulsive disorder, and more.
