He also supports those dealing with grief, career stress, parenting pressures and challenges related to identity and intimacy. Corey uses several well known approaches and adapts them to each person. He draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help with unhelpful thinking patterns.
He also uses acceptance and commitment strategies to help people clarify values and take manageable action. Attachment-based and emotionally focused work inform how he helps with relationship and intimacy issues. Client-centred skills guide the way he listens and reflects so people feel understood.
Sessions are practical, conversational and aimed at building skills you can use between meetings. Corey speaks English and Afrikaans. He works with adults and couples and focuses on helping people who want clearer thinking, better relationships and stronger coping tools.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It can help when anxiety, avoidance or low mood get in the way of living the life someone wants.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It teaches practical techniques to reduce unhelpful thinking and change patterns that maintain anxiety, depression or phobias.
Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how earlier relationships shape current patterns in close relationships. It is useful for people struggling with intimacy, trust or repeated relationship conflicts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Corey will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and recommend ways of working together. That decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is helpful when visual cues and a fuller conversation are needed. Phone sessions can be quicker and suit people with limited bandwidth. Chat and messaging are useful for short check-ins, ongoing coaching and flexible check-ups between longer sessions.
