My name is Corina Forte, and I am a bilingual mental health counselor providing therapy in both English and Spanish. For the past 15 years, I have supported adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, major life transitions, mood concerns, and the impact of serious illness. Many of the people I work with are capable, caring, and accustomed to holding everything together for others, yet feel anxious, exhausted, disconnected from themselves, or unsure of what they need. Therapy can offer a space to slow down, better understand the patterns shaping your emotions and relationships, and begin responding to life with greater clarity and intention. My approach is warm, collaborative, and honest. I strive to create a nonjudgmental environment where clients feel genuinely understood, while also offering thoughtful guidance and gentle challenge when it may help them move forward. I believe therapy should provide both deeper self-understanding and practical tools that can be applied in everyday life. I tailor my work to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. I draw from evidence-based, trauma-informed, cognitive behavioral, existential, Gestalt, mindfulness-based, and expressive approaches, depending on each client’s needs and goals. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, develop a healthier relationship with your emotions, make choices that reflect who you are, and create meaningful changes that feel sustainable beyond the therapy room.
During our first session, we will take time to understand what is bringing you to therapy, what has been feeling difficult, and what you hope will change. I may ask about your history, relationships, current stressors, and previous experiences with therapy, but you will never be expected to share more than you feel ready to. My goal is for the first session to feel like a conversation rather than an interview. We will begin identifying the patterns, concerns, and goals that may guide our work together, and I will answer any questions you have about my approach. By the end of the session, we will have a clearer sense of what you need and what our next steps might look like.
What makes my approach stand out is the balance between depth and practicality. I do not focus only on reducing symptoms; I also help clients understand the experiences, beliefs, relationships, and emotional patterns that may be shaping how they feel and respond to life. My approach is integrative and highly individualized. Rather than applying the same method to everyone, I draw from evidence-based, trauma-informed, cognitive behavioral, existential, Gestalt, mindfulness-based, and expressive approaches according to each client’s needs, personality, and goals. I also believe therapy should feel human. I bring warmth, curiosity, honesty, and respect into the therapeutic relationship. Clients can expect to feel supported and understood, while also being gently challenged when certain patterns may be keeping them stuck. My goal is not simply to give clients more information or coping techniques. It is to help them develop a deeper understanding of themselves, build a healthier relationship with their emotions, and use practical tools to create meaningful change in their everyday lives.
As a bilingual counselor, I am able to serve Spanish-speaking clients in their native language, creating a level of trust and understanding that allows us to delve deeply into their personal journeys. My goal is always to help each client gain insight into their own psyche, find relief from suffering, and walk their unique path toward health and wholeness. Please feel free to reach out if you are ready to have a compassionate witness help you on your way.

CBT is an evidence based treatment that has proven its effectiveness treating for a wide range of mental and emotional issues, including anxiety and depression.
Culture is the glass of the lense through we see the world. Including cultural issues and sensitivities is part of my approach in tailoring treatment according to a specific cliente, no two people are the same.
Grieving for a love one is always difficult. I help my clients grieve in a healthy way, and taking the time it takes to do this.
Jung is the father of deep psychology, which not only takes into account early experiences but cultural factors as well into how our mind works and influences pur behavior.
Mindfulness has been prove to increase wellbeing. I use this approach as a way for my clients to develop another tool for their toolbox to better cope with life and stressors.
