Kory Fricks

My communication style

I am here to listen. At times, I will ask about the things I have heard you say in pursuit of a deeper understanding of your thoughts and feelings. I am genuine and transparent about my own experience with you. We can have a frank discussion without judgment or shame.

My journey to mental healthcare

Being a therapist feels authentic and satisfying. Discovering that being a person others could count on for support felt like a natural fit for my personality gave me a sense of purpose. It comes with the opportunity to continue learning and growing personally and professionally.

My goals for you

I will begin listening to your goals from the first time we meet. I am a collaborative therapist and will want your input on the direction our therapy will take. The goals we create will be manageable and realistic. I will check in regularly to see how you are feeling about the goals we have created. We can affirm progress and successes.

Our first session

During our first meeting, we can start to get to know one another. I might ask if you want to do a brief relaxation exercise if you are feeling anxious. I will invite you to tell me about the things that brought you into therapy and any goals you might have. I will also want to gather some background information. You can ask questions at any time.
