About Korin
Korin Whittaker is an AASW accredited social worker practising in New South Wales with four years of experience. She works with adults who face stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger, low self-esteem and major life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than abstract theory.
Korin uses a person-centred approach that keeps conversation straightforward. She helps people break problems into manageable parts and set small, achievable goals. That can mean learning new ways to respond when anger rises, or practising simple habits that reduce daily stress.
Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. She explains techniques plainly and then practises them in session so they feel usable between meetings. She also uses solution-focused ideas to sharpen what clients want to change now.
Korin has supported people through attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, fertility and body image worries, and issues such as codependency or hoarding. She talks with clients about communication and control issues in relationships without assuming labels.
Her style is direct and respectful. People who come for help with anger or relationship tension can expect clear steps, skill practice, and a focus on real-life changes. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule their first session.
How Korin applies therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. It can help with anger that comes from clashes between what someone wants and what they do. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going and then testing small changes to those patterns. This is useful for anxiety, anger cycles and low self-esteem.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Korin will talk with the client about their goals, try methods, and adjust based on what feels useful. That collaborative process helps pick practical techniques that fit the person’s life and aims.
The therapist’s biography does not specify which online session types are offered, so confirm formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They can also suit quieter surroundings or times when being on camera is not preferred, depending on the format offered. Appropriately qualified counsellors and therapists can use online work to support ongoing practice of skills between sessions.
