I’m Dr. Kashon Corley, and I believe my purpose is to help people remember that even in life’s hardest moments, they never have to walk alone - we move through the journey together until the better and best days come. I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals who want a counselor that truly sees and hears them as they are. My work centers on encouraging people to live in their truth unapologetically and with confidence in their own growth.
Life can often feel like a series of overwhelming transitions, leaving you feeling disconnected or unsure of your next step. I provide a dedicated space for adults (22+) to slow down, reflect, and move forward with renewed clarity.
Whether you are navigating the complexities of trauma, managing a mood disorder, or facing significant life changes, my goal is to help you transform "feeling stuck" into a journey of intentional growth.
How We Will Work Together
My approach is relational, honest, and depth-oriented. Rather than just addressing surface-level symptoms, we will explore the unspoken beliefs and past experiences that quietly shape your daily life. By learning to listen to what your emotions are communicating, you can begin to respond to life’s challenges in ways that promote genuine healing and authentic connection.
Specialized Support for Couples
In addition to individual therapy, I specialize in marriage and pre-marital counseling. I help couples at all stages build resilient foundations, repair emotional disconnections, and foster a deeper sense of intimacy and mutual understanding.
**Please note: While I accept insurance for individual therapy, all couples counseling is private-pay only. Insurance does not cover relationship-focused therapy.
Your Journey Starts Here
You deserve a space where you are fully seen, heard, and empowered. No matter where you are in your journey, I am here to support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.
I specialize in helping couples and adults navigate relationship challenges, cultural differences, and major life transitions. My work is especially focused on couples who feel disconnected, stuck in recurring conflict, or unsure how to rebuild trust and emotional closeness. As a Level 3 Gottman Method-trained therapist, I help partners understand their patterns, communicate more effectively, and create a stronger relationship. I also support individuals balancing career, family, cultural adjustment, and the demands of a new chapter.
Great to meet you!
As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing for over 15yrs I truly believe being heard, validated and understood are key to components to a strong therapeutic relationship. Happiness and stability in life are never guaranteed but seeking help can be one of the hardest parts but also the most rewarding. Congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing over 15 years, but in the last decade, have shifted my main focus to clients aged who are struggling with anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, life transitional challenges and those who have suffered from Narcissistic/Emotional abuse.
