How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work

CBT focuses on practical exercises and homework that can be practiced between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and improve mood.He also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT-style skills are helpful for people who want concrete tools to reduce reactivity and handle conflict more effectively.
Finding the right combination of methods is part of the work. Kory collaborates with each person to decide which approaches match their goals and preferences. That planning includes setting measurable steps and checking progress together.
