About

About Cory

Cory Lee is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He offers a compassionate, non-judgemental space where adults and young people can talk about their lives and the problems that brought them to therapy. Cory aims to be genuine and approachable so people can feel heard and understood from the first session.

He draws on a range of therapeutic methods, including cognitive behavioural techniques and psychodynamic ideas, to suit each person’s needs.

Background and approach

Cory has around five years of experience working in diverse settings in the United Kingdom and the USA. His background includes in-patient CAMHS work, adult mental health services, school settings, and community-based support during crises. He has provided counselling with Mind and supported older adults facing bereavement, depression and anxiety.

That variety has shaped a practical style that balances listening with clear, walk-away strategies. Sessions often focus on immediate problems such as stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties or life changes. Cory also helps people facing issues related to identity, discrimination and LGBT concerns, as well as matters like addiction, eating difficulties, grief and parenting strain.

He pays attention to attachment and blended family dynamics when relevant to the presenting problem. People who prefer a warm, straightforward approach may find his style comfortable. He invites clients to work at their own pace, talking through what feels most pressing and building steps forward together.

Online support

Online therapy approaches and what they do

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small changes in behaviour. It is often used for anxiety, depression and stress because it gives clear strategies to try between sessions.

Client-Centred Therapy places emphasis on listening, empathy and creating a non-judgemental environment. It helps people who need space to make sense of their feelings and to move at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Cory will discuss goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that suit the person. That might mean using more structured CBT tools for a specific problem or spending longer on exploring personal history and patterns in a client-centred way. The choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by cutting travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a work break. It can also let people join from a location with quieter surroundings or lower audio-visual demands. The exact session formats used should be confirmed before booking so practical arrangements match the client’s needs.
