Ryan Corbin

My communication style

I'm straightforward once we've built trust, because I've found that authenticity strengthens our connection. I match my communication to your experience and serve as a supportive guide. My goal is to partner with you in a way that feels genuine and helpful.

My journey to mental healthcare

I started as a correctional officer at a juvenile hall, where I discovered I was better at connecting one-on-one with kids than enforcing rules. The youth I worked with encouraged me to become a therapist. That feedback, combined with training in suicide intervention, showed me I could help people proactively rather than retroactively.

My goals for you

Goals of the client come from and are most effectively achieved when they are set by the client. For those who are not sure what goals they want to achieve, I work to understand the person's concerns first, and then I can support them in working in tandem to have effective, achievable goals for treatment.

Our first session

We'll discuss what brought you to therapy and what you hope to gain. I'll share information about myself and the benefits and risks of treatment. Then I'll take time to hear your story and get to know who you are.
