About Cory

Cory Schortzman is a licensed counselor who helps people work through stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strains, intimacy-related problems, and anger. He has 26 years of experience and practices from Colorado. Cory speaks English and accepts international clients for remote work.

He focuses on practical changes people can use right away. Sessions center on understanding the emotions behind behavior and building clearer communication. Cory emphasizes strengths clients already have and helps them apply those strengths to current challenges.

Background and approach

In sessions he listens first and then offers tools from several approaches. Those tools include cognitive techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts, emotion-focused work to deepen connection and clarity, and mindfulness strategies to manage intense feelings. He adapts the mix based on each person's situation.

Cory has worked with people facing separation, infidelity, codependency, pornography and process addictions, compulsive behaviors, and issues like guilt, shame, and isolation. He also supports men dealing with midlife concerns and patterns tied to narcissism or impulsivity. Conversations often address communication problems, forgiveness, and rebuilding trust.

Getting started involves completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling sessions. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different routines and needs.

Online support

Emotion and Skill-Based Approaches for Online Care

Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and work with strong emotions to improve connection and reduce repeating patterns. It is often used when relationship wounds, intimacy problems, or deep shame are getting in the way of daily life.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation where the person sets the pace. This approach helps people feel heard and build confidence in their own choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting thought patterns that lead to unhelpful behavior and testing out new ways of thinking. CBT is useful for anxiety, compulsive habits, and managing impulses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative process can shift over time as progress and priorities change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video calls let people talk face to face when deeper conversation is needed. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter check-ins, written reflection, or fitting a session into a break at work. These options give flexibility so people can keep momentum without major schedule changes.
