He has a depth of knowledge second to none, and uses real life experience to help council. He's well versed in couples and 1 on 1 sessions. I found him to be very useful as I went thru a tough time in my life as my family really felt the pain of my wife's misguided mistake. I would recommend Cory for anyone needing an experienced counselor that wants to help you work thru the pain and see the light of recovery. Cory is an amazing, passionate, caring and results driven individual.

But, most importantly the therapist seemed very competent to relating to young children. Today was the second session where I got to approve the treatment plan base on an extensive interview in the previous session. There seemed to be a genuine sense of wanting to help and a high degree of empathy from the therapist. I know these things take time, but am very optimistic that we have made a good choice. The one thing I wish was more streamlined is their procedure for approving documents. The approval for request of services is done by signing on a laptop using just your finger. How the resulting scrawl could be proven to be my signature is beyond me. Sometimes businesses use technology in ways that really don't make sense. I understand that they want a signature before beginning therapy, and that their process sends it directly to the insurance company for approval, but this is one case where paper and fax or scanned document would make a lot more sense. Two sessions so far and I feel like we made a good choice.

I seriously owe my current quality of life to Chuck and Jo-Ann…read more I met them a few years ago as a bartender, they were meeting friends for a night out and were super nice to me. They left a business card when they left, and although I wasn't in the market for couples counseling, I was in the market to speak with a therapist. At the time, I had a job that was going nowhere and I felt useless because I wasn't using my degree, I was in an abusive long distance relationship, I lived in a house with dirty irresponsible roommates, and my anxiety was at an all-time high. Although I was medicated in the past (and currently am now after some revelations) I did not want to be medicated at that time and wanted to learn how to handle my anxiety on my own. Not only did Jo-Ann teach me wonderful cognitive therapy techniques, but she also encouraged me to go to cosmetology school, which is what I had always wanted to do, but hesitated because my parents told me to go to college and get a "real job". I am now a very successful hairstylist, I have my own apartment, a wonderful partner, and although I eventually decided that I needed medication to treat my mental illnesses, I'm not on nearly as many as I was when I was in high school and college. I haven't seen Jo-Ann in a few years because I have moved, but I really wanted to thank her for changing my life for the better. If you are looking for a therapist in the Brandon or Tampa area, then look no further. If I ever get engaged, I will be sure to book appointments and make the drive to see her and Chuck to have a few sessions to build a healthy foundation for marriage.
