About Dr. Kendra Corning

Dr. Kendra Corning is licensed in North Carolina and brings 12 years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, grief, loss, and the challenges that can come with medical changes.

Her work also includes helping individuals who live with diagnoses often described as severe and persistent, including bipolar disorder, borderline and other personality disorders, schizophrenia, obsessive compulsive disorder, and neurodivergent experiences across the lifespan - from Autism through Dementia. She approaches therapy with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and welcomes clients from all walks and stages of life without preconceived ideas.

Dr. Corning emphasizes that each client is the expert on their own life. Using what clients share about their experiences, strengths, and goals, she collaborates on a treatment plan tailored to their specific needs. Between sessions, she may suggest practical "homework" to help shift unhelpful patterns and support steady progress in day-to-day life. Therapy is viewed as a dynamic, team-based process that evolves over time, with ongoing attention to what works best for the client and what helps move them toward their goals. She is there to support clients as they take meaningful steps toward a more fulfilling life.

Therapy Approaches That Translate Well Online

Dr. Kendra Corning draws from evidence-informed approaches that can be effective in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, helping clients notice unhelpful patterns and practice more workable ways of responding to stress, anxiety, and depression.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients build psychological flexibility by making space for difficult thoughts and emotions while choosing actions aligned with personal values. This approach can be especially helpful when life includes ongoing challenges like grief, trauma recovery, or medical changes. Mindfulness Therapy supports present-moment awareness and grounding skills that can reduce overwhelm and strengthen coping in day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dr. Corning collaborates with clients to clarify goals, understand preferences, and adjust the pace and tools over time so therapy feels relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to fit support into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life transitions, and practice skills in real-world moments between sessions.
