About Corina
Corina Istanich is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who focuses on helping people manage everyday strains. She helps with stress, anxiety, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family challenges, grief, and life changes. Corina speaks English and Spanish and draws on a decade of work in counseling to guide conversations toward practical change.
Her background includes both undergraduate and graduate training at Palm Beach Atlantic University. That education shaped her outlook and continues to influence how she shows up in sessions.
Background and approach
Much of her early career was in inpatient addiction treatment, and she later provided outpatient and in-home services across community agencies. Corina tends to work from cognitive-behavioral ideas while drawing on other approaches when helpful. She focuses on learning coping skills, setting healthy boundaries, and improving communication.
Sessions aim to be direct and compassionate, with practical steps between meetings. She values a real and honest therapeutic relationship and believes that the way people connect in sessions can help improve relationships outside therapy. Corina prefers video sessions so she can read nonverbal cues, but she also offers phone calls and live chat when needed.
Her style is straightforward and growth-oriented. People who want clear skills and support for everyday problems may find her approach a good match.
How therapeutic approaches fit into online care
Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the room and focuses on listening, empathy, and building a caring relationship to help people feel understood and motivated to change. It can be useful when someone needs support processing emotions or improving self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and then practices alternative thinking and actions. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday problems that respond to specific skill-building.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete tools for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness. It can help when anger, relationship conflict, or emotional overwhelm are central concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
Online therapy makes those approaches accessible across formats. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when screen time is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging allow short check-ins, written reflections, and flexible communication between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy into a busy life.
