About Corry Bulkley, LCPC
Hi, I'm Corry.
Choosing a therapist can feel surprisingly personal. Credentials and treatment approaches matter, but you also need to feel comfortable with the person sitting across from you.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with more than a decade of experience. Clients often come to me because they feel anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns they understand intellectually but have not been able to change.
My approach is compassionate and conversational while still being active and purposeful. I will not expect you to carry the entire conversation or arrive knowing exactly what you need. We will work together to understand what is happening, identify what may be keeping it in place, and decide what would feel most helpful to address first.
How I Approach Therapy
I use an integrative approach, which means I do not expect one method to fit every person or every situation. Depending on your needs, our work may draw from IFS-informed parts work, EMDR, CBT, DBT-informed strategies, mindfulness, and nervous-system regulation.
We may spend time developing practical skills, exploring patterns, processing past experiences, or understanding conflicting parts of you. The pace is collaborative. You will not be pushed into trauma processing before you feel prepared.
Mental and Physical Health Are Connected
Emotional well-being does not exist separately from the rest of your life. Chronic illness, pain, sleep, stress, relationships, hormones, medical experiences, and feeling dismissed or misunderstood can all affect how you function emotionally.
I consider these connections while remaining within the scope of psychotherapy. My goal is to understand the full context of what you are experiencing—not reduce everything to a diagnosis or a list of symptoms.
Inner Parts Work, EMDR, and Practical Coping and Regulation Skills
Inner Parts Work helps you understand your inner critics, protectors, and wounded parts. It fosters self-compassion, clarity, and a grounded relationship with yourself.
EMDR can support the processing of distressing experiences, emotional triggers, and beliefs that continue to affect the present. The timing and pace of trauma processing are determined collaboratively.
CBT, DBT-informed strategies, and mindfulness may be used to strengthen emotional regulation, manage anxiety, improve boundaries and communication, and respond more effectively to stress.
Outside of Sessions
My Personal Interests
When I’m not working, I’m usually spending time with my husband and our two beagles, being near the water, reading, cooking, traveling, or catching up with the people I care about. I value humor, authenticity, and relationships where people can be honest about how they are really doing.
I believe therapy can be meaningful and challenging without feeling cold, overly formal, or clinical.
