    About Cori-Ann

    Cori-Ann Feiner-Escoto is a New Jersey psychologist with 25 years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people manage trauma, abuse, grief, loss, motivation, and self-esteem concerns. Cori-Ann emphasizes a respectful, strengths-based approach that treats each person as the expert on their own story.

    She uses practical methods to address mood-related difficulties and to help people reconnect with what matters to them. Sessions are rooted in acceptance and in identifying small, doable steps toward change. Motivational Interviewing is part of how she helps people find and strengthen their motivation to act.

    Clients can expect a calm, supportive atmosphere where their goals guide the work. Cori-Ann listens for what a person values and then helps shape techniques to match those values. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support committed action and from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach coping skills.

    Her background includes long experience working with caregivers and people affected by cancer, first responder stress, and relationship problems tied to family of origin. She also addresses issues such as guilt, shame, impulsivity, and isolation. The emphasis is on practical tools that fit daily life.

    Therapy begins with understanding the immediate problem and the person's priorities. The pace and methods are adjusted to each person, with an aim toward clearer choices and steadier functioning in day-to-day life.

  2. Approaches that guide online work

    Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people connect with their values and take small committed steps toward a life they care about. It focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match what matters. Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method for strengthening a person’s own reasons to change. It helps when someone feels stuck or uncertain about making a change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offers concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cori-Ann will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean using values-based ACT exercises for long-term direction, motivational conversations to build momentum, or CBT tools for immediate coping. The plan can change as progress is made.

    Confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, save travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also offers flexibility for scheduling around work, caregiving, or medical appointments while focusing on practical strategies and steady progress.
