SCHEDULE WITH CORI

After experiencing the heartbreaking loss of a child and navigating infertility, I gained a deeply personal understanding of grief, hope, and healing. Those experiences continue to shape the empathy I bring to my clinical work and have deepened my desire to walk alongside individuals, couples, and families navigating pain, trauma, relationship challenges, and significant life transitions.

I am a Licensed Associate Marriage & Family Therapist specializing in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and attachment-based work. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Family Studies from Brigham Young University and my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from the AAMFT-accredited program at Abilene Christian University.

I believe we are wired for connection and that our relationships, with others and with ourselves, profoundly shape our emotional well-being. When those connections feel strained or unsafe, we can find ourselves feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or alone. My goal is to help clients understand the emotions and attachment needs beneath their struggles so they can break unhealthy patterns, develop a stronger sense of self, and create relationships marked by greater trust, safety, and connection.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and parent-teen relationships. With individuals, I support clients as they navigate anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions, and the impact of past experiences on present-day functioning and relationships. I also help clients move toward greater self-understanding, emotional regulation, and self-compassion. With couples and families, I help clients move beyond negative cycles and toward deeper understanding, emotional security, and meaningful connection.

My approach combines evidence-based therapy with genuine compassion and respect for each client’s unique experiences, values, and spiritual beliefs. I strive to create a warm, supportive environment where clients feel safe enough to explore difficult emotions, gain new perspectives, and experience meaningful change.

I believe it is never too late to create healthier patterns, stronger relationships, and a more connected sense of self. It is a privilege to walk alongside clients as they heal, grow, and build the life and relationships they deeply value.

How can

help?

Psychotherapy works by creating a trusting therapeutic relationship, identifying problematic thoughts, and teaching tools to shift those thoughts and change problematic behaviors. Therapy also creates an environment where safe, healing, and connecting relationships between family members can take place. A good therapist will help you feel less overwhelmed, less alone, and more empowered in your life. Many people report feeling more hopeful even after just one session.

1 in 4 adolescents experience mental disorders that result in severe impairment.

Living in this fast paced world full of comparison and social media, pandemics and unknowns, peer pressure and high expectations, it's no wonder that so many teenagers are struggling. As a parent it can be hard to know if it's normal teenage moodiness or if your teen is struggling with something above and beyond normal teenage stress. Do you know the signs and how to help your teen if they are struggling with their mental health?
