Hello my name is Korin Best and I specialize in anxiety, stress management, depression, and substance abuse/recovery. I work with ages 13-50. I graduated in 2010 from Argosy University with a Master's degree in Community Counseling and a concentration on Marriage and Family Therapy. I have been working in the mental health field for 13 years and 8 years of those were spent in inpatient psychiatric/substance abuse hospitals. I have had many professional and personal experiences that have enriched my skills and compassion for my clients and their diverse backgrounds. I love helping others reach their maximum holistic potential and believe that it is important to treat the whole person. I focus on self-care as the foundation of each of my client's journeys as they work toward meeting their specific treatment goals.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, I work to get to know more about what your therapy goals are and what brought you to seek therapy and we work to steadily build rapport.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strengths as a provider is that I am professional yet transparent and I am very skilled at building rapport and making client's feel safe and connected.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I actually use a multimodal approach usually since every client is unique, but CBT is my primary method. I help clients become more self-aware of their thoughts and mindful of their self-talk and we work to reframe negative thought patterns and in turn the client is better able to cope through utilizing this when working through life's challenges.

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

I frequently speak about acceptance when client's feel stuck or focus on the negatives more than the positives. We discuss how acceptance is the answer to all their problems and to find serenity they must accept that situation or thing exactly how it is at that moment.
