About Cori-Ann

Cori-Ann Feiner-Escoto is a New Jersey psychologist with 25 years of professional experience. She focuses on trauma and abuse, grief, and self-esteem concerns. Cori-Ann frames therapy around a person’s strengths and life story and offers steady support for people who are ready to try something different.

How Cori-Ann’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for grief, low motivation, and problems that leave people feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills for mood and anxiety management. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and helping people find their own solutions by building on strengths and self-knowledge.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cori-Ann will discuss different strategies and partner with each person to pick techniques that match their goals and comfort level. That choice is shaped by what feels most useful in sessions and by everyday needs.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also makes it possible to continue care through periods of illness or frequent appointments. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and client-centered methods to virtual settings, focusing on practical exercises, thought work, and values-based actions that people can practice between sessions.
