About Cory

Cory Kitt is an LPC based in Wisconsin who draws on 15 years of clinical work to support people navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She blends client-centered principles with practical skill building from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to help clients address patterns that affect mood, relationships, and daily functioning. Her background also includes work as a clinical case manager and supervisor, giving her a broad perspective on treatment planning and care coordination.

Her style is warm, collaborative, and often infused with gentle humor, with an emphasis on respect, autonomy, and compassion. Cory uses strengths-based perspectives alongside mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and targeted coping strategies to tailor a plan that fits each person's needs.

She has supported individuals facing concerns such as addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, intimacy-related issues, grief, parenting stress, ADHD, and a range of attachment and identity challenges. Clients work with Cory to build skills, explore values, and create practical steps toward improved quality of life.

She encourages people to take courageous first steps toward change and offers steady guidance while honoring the client’s goals and pace.

Using Evidence-Informed Approaches in Online Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through structured techniques and practical exercises; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an accepting, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist offers empathy and support to help clients clarify values and goals. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills to manage intense emotions and improve relationships.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic journey, and Cory collaborates with each person to determine what fits best. She will listen to your priorities, try different tools, and adjust strategies based on your needs and preferences so the plan feels workable and relevant.

Online therapy with this practitioner is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes care more flexible for varied schedules and life demands. These remote formats allow for consistent skill practice between sessions and can make it easier to access support without travel, helping clients maintain momentum while working toward their goals.
