About Kory
Kory Wilson is an LCMHC in Utah with 11 years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, bipolar mood issues, grief, and life transitions. He also supports those dealing with self-esteem struggles, relationship strain, and performance pressure.
Kory focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and building practical skills people can use day to day. Sessions emphasize clearer thinking, better emotional regulation, and step-by-step strategies to handle tense moments. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and mindfulness practices.
In the room he uses straightforward exercises and talks that help people notice patterns that escalate tension. He guides breathing and grounding skills for calming down. He also works on communication skills and problem-solving that reduce recurring conflict and resentment.
Kory frames progress in small, measurable changes. That can look like fewer impulsive reactions, steadier mood swings, or clearer boundaries with others. He encourages regular practice so new skills translate into real-life situations like work stress or family arguments.
People who prefer practical tools and direct feedback report the clearest benefit from his style. He asks concrete questions, sets short-term goals, and checks progress each session. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Kory commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in his work. CBT focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors step by step, which helps with anger, anxiety, and low mood. DBT teaches concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills to manage intense feelings and reduce impulsive reactions.He also incorporates Client-Centered Therapy principles and mindfulness practices to help people notice their experience without judgment. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals and try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences, adjusting as progress is tracked.
