About Cory
Cory Berberich is an Illinois licensed clinical professional counselor, LCPC, with four years of clinical experience and nearly six years working in mental health. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, coping with life changes, and attention difficulties including ADHD. Cory primarily works with adolescents and young adults, and conducts sessions in English.
He draws on client-centered methods to keep sessions focused on each person's priorities. That means conversations are guided by what matters most to the client and move at a sensible pace. Cory also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness to help people manage strong emotions and reduce reactivity.
Cory’s background includes work in foster care, an autism clinic, and private practice. Those settings gave him experience with a wide range of emotional challenges and practical life problems. He has worked with people dealing with communication problems, separation and divorce, impulsivity, and post-traumatic stress.
In sessions he aims for straightforward, practical work. People can expect to talk through current struggles, try skills for handling stress and impulsivity, and set short-term goals for changes they want to see. Cory also supports people looking to clarify life purpose and direction after a big transition.

How Cory blends practical approaches for online work
Cory commonly draws from client-centered therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in his sessions. Client-centered therapy centers conversations on what the person brings to the room, letting the client set priorities and pace; it is useful for sorting through what feels most urgent after a life change. Dialectical behavior therapy offers concrete skills for managing emotion, reducing impulsivity, and improving communication, which can help with anxiety, relationship strain, and attention difficulties.Finding the best approach is treated as a collaborative process. Cory will talk with the client about goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust methods based on what helps. That means sessions can shift between talking, skill practice, and brief action plans as needed.
