About Kelly

Kelly Corbine is a licensed clinician in New York who helps people navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and challenges related to LGBT identity.

Background and approach

She brings 33 years of professional experience to sessions and focuses on building a trusting therapeutic relationship where clients can explore thoughts and feelings openly. Kelly emphasizes creating a nonjudgmental space that supports clients as they take the often-difficult step toward greater wellbeing.

Her work integrates evidence-informed methods including cognitive behavioral strategies, attachment-based perspectives, and client-centered techniques, along with elements of mindfulness and dialectical behavior therapy as appropriate. Kelly aims to help clients strengthen coping skills, clarify values and goals, and address concerns such as self-esteem, communication problems, panic and mood symptoms, and life transitions.

Her practice is grounded in collaboration and respect as clients and therapist shape a path forward together.

Therapeutic approaches and remote care

Kelly often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and try new behaviors that reduce distress and improve daily functioning; this approach can be useful for anxiety, mood symptoms, and panic. She also draws on attachment-based therapy to explore patterns in relationships and how early relational experiences influence current responses, which can be helpful for attachment issues, communication problems, and difficulties with trust and closeness.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kelly works with each person to consider their goals, values, and preferences, and she adapts methods over time so the work aligns with what the client wants to accomplish. Clients and therapist assess progress together and make adjustments as needed.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These remote formats make it easier to access ongoing support from a licensed professional while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and they allow for consistent care even when in-person visits are not practical.
