Cory Lee is a counsellor with five years' experience offering calm, practical support. He works with adults to help them manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and difficult life changes. Cory keeps language straightforward and focuses on what people need now.

He draws on a range of methods, including client-centred work and cognitive behavioural ideas, to suit each person. Sessions are a place to talk through family worries, grief, relationship problems, addiction concerns and trauma.

Background and approach

Cory also supports people with career worries, identity and LGBT questions, and issues around intimacy and self-harm. Cory has worked in different settings, including inpatient CAMHS, adult mental health services, schools and community programmes in the UK and the USA. He has also provided counselling with Mind and supported older adults through bereavement and depression.

In sessions he aims to be straightforward and non-judgemental. He listens first, then helps people identify small, manageable steps. The work can include looking at patterns from the past or trying out practical coping skills in the present.

Cory accepts international clients and runs appointments by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. He uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability.

Approaches in online counselling and how they help

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on hearing the person's experience and building a warm, non-judgemental relationship. It helps when someone needs a space to make sense of feelings and gain confidence in their own choices.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It is useful for managing anxiety, depression, unhelpful behaviour and stressful situations by practising different ways of thinking and coping.

Finding the right approach is usually a shared process. Cory will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods over time if needed. This makes it easier to try something that fits and change direction if it does not.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people see facial expressions and work more like face-to-face meetings. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth or being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when writing feels easier. These formats make it simpler to fit sessions around work, study and busy lives while keeping focus on the therapeutic work.
