About Cory
Cory Schortzman is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) and LIMHP (Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner) with 26 years of clinical experience based in Colorado. He works with stress and anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, and anger. Cory also addresses problems such as abandonment, codependency, communication struggles, infidelity, and isolation.
He uses straightforward, goal-focused methods that help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Cory draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns that keep problems going. He also uses client-centered listening and emotion-focused techniques to clarify relationship dynamics and emotional needs.
Sessions focus on practical steps. People can expect to talk through recent events, examine how thoughts and behaviors connect, and practice different ways of responding. Cory helps clients set small, measurable goals and checks progress over time.
He has worked with addiction-related concerns including process addictions such as pornography, exercise, and gambling. Cory also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, impulsivity, and obsessive-compulsive tendencies, using a mix of mindfulness and motivational interviewing ideas when helpful.
Cory frames therapy as a collaborative process. He respects each person’s experience and helps them apply strategies that fit their daily life. For those considering therapy, he asks for a short initial questionnaire to match needs and schedule a first session.
How his approaches translate to online work
His practice draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to address thinking patterns and relationship concerns. CBT helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety and manage cravings. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting so people can clarify their goals and feel heard during problem solving. He also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy for relationship and intimacy issues. EFT focuses on identifying partners' emotional needs and shifting the interaction patterns that cause distance or conflict. That approach can help people working through infidelity, sexual addiction concerns, or ongoing communication problems. Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means adjusting techniques and pacing as progress is seen and priorities change. Confirm the specific session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with him about session length and timing so appointments align with everyday life and practical routines.Areas of expertise
