My name is Corey. I started Valor Counseling with you in mind. The counseling experience should be comfortable, effective, and frustration free. Finding a therapist that is a good fit can be frustrating. Because I realize that, I will be happy to answer any questions you have before making your first appointment. I do this to help make the process a little easier for you.
I specialize in Adult Therapy, Couples Therapy, and Addiction Therapy. I am located in an easy to get to location near downtown Wheaton. I am currently offering both in person and telehealth (phone or secure video chat) sessions. Appointments are offered on weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I am happy to check your insurance benefits before you commit to coming to help make sure that there are no surprises.
I will also submit all of your claims to the insurance company for your convenience. Deciding to come to therapy can be stressful in itself, so I strive to make the process as stress free as I can. Thank you for your interest.

Anxiety is an emotion that is based in fear.
As humans we all have anxiety.
Anxiety is generated from the threat detection center of our brain.
When we were cavemen it was highly useful for us to be on alert and anticipate potential threats to survive.
Anxiety is what allows us to respond to a potential tiger attack by triggering the physiological fight, flight, or freeze response within us.
Today anxiety is still very useful in protecting us at times.
Although useful when activated our bodies can't tell the difference between a potential tiger attacking us versus a potential awkward social interaction.
