About me

As a licensed therapist in Virginia, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes, with a deep commitment to addressing depression, anxiety, stress, and self-esteem challenges. My practice centers on creating affirming spaces where Black and LGBTQ+ individuals can explore personal growth, healing, and self-love.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in understanding the unique experiences of marginalized communities, offering compassionate guidance that honors individual identities and lived experiences. I focus on helping clients break through isolation, build resilience, and develop meaningful strategies for emotional wellness.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Corey Tolliver. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Mr. Tolliver has been very accommodating with regard to difficulty finding appropriate appointment dates and times.

In the sessions I have had with Corey so far, I truly appreciate how he affirms my worries and concerns but also how my mentality has been pushed. His knowledge is incredibly valuable, but also his patience and advice has already helped me to be more realistic on ways I can improve myself. I feel very fortunate to have been matched with him through teen counseling and I would recommend him to anyone I know as well.

My son has said that Corey is very easy for him to talk to and that even though he has only had a couple sessions so far, he is already beginning to feel better about things. As his mother, I can say that I have already begun to see a change in his attitude, he’s acting more like the fun-loving, goofy Vinny I’ve known since he was little. ❤️

I highly recommend Mr. Corey as your therapist, he listens very well to not only the parent but the child’s concerns & responds in a timely manner!

Work with me!
