About Korey
Korey Fisher-Wellman is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina with 15 years of experience. He trained in psychology and social work and has worked mainly in public child welfare. He helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting questions, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, career concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and related struggles.
He describes his work as practical and goal-focused. Sessions often look at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. He also uses brief, solution-minded conversations to identify small changes that can give quick relief. Motivational interviewing is part of how he supports people who are weighing change or dealing with substance use.
Korey draws on client-centered ideas, which means he listens for what matters to the person and follows their priorities. He blends that with cognitive behavioral tools to help people spot and test unhelpful thoughts. Mindfulness practices are used when they fit, for grounding and slowing reactivity.
His background in public child welfare informs how he approaches complicated family and caregiving stress. He has worked with trauma, grief, attachment and adoption-related issues alongside mood and stress conditions. The practical focus is on clear steps and skills people can use between sessions.
People seeking help with anger, career strain, relationship tension, or coping with life changes will find straightforward strategies and a collaborative problem-solving style. He accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.
How Korey brings therapy approaches into online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's goals and priorities. The therapist listens closely and follows what the client says matters most, helping them set the pacing and topics for sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and introduces practical experiments and homework to shift those patterns. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase moment-to-moment control, which can be helpful for anger and anxiety.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Korey will collaborate with the person to choose approaches that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time rather than sticking to one fixed method.
