About Korin
Korin Whittaker is an AASW-accredited social worker who works with people facing stress, anxiety and relationship problems. She explains things plainly and focuses on practical steps that can help you feel steadier. Korin aims to create a respectful, compassionate space for each person who reaches out.
With four years of clinical experience in New South Wales, Korin helps people with anger, motivation, self-esteem and confidence. She adapts conversations and plans to suit each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. She also supports people dealing with life changes and common concerns such as communication problems and commitment issues.
Her work draws on a person-focused approach alongside cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy strategies. She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy and solution-focused ideas when they fit a person's goals. Sessions tend to focus on practical skills, clearer thinking patterns and small changes that add up over time.
Korin has supported people coping with abandonment and attachment issues, body image concerns, caregiving stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, domestic violence effects, fertility worries, guilt and shame, and hoarding. She will tailor work to the concerns you bring and the pace you prefer.
Beginning therapy can feel daunting, and Korin aims to make the first steps manageable. She encourages honest conversation about goals and helps people plan clear next steps toward feeling more in control.
How Korin’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person’s lead to build trust and clarify goals. It helps when someone wants a non-judgemental space to talk through feelings and priorities.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches skills for noticing thoughts and choosing valued actions. It is often useful for anxiety, stress and getting unstuck from unhelpful patterns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to try different responses to those thoughts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Korin collaborates with each person to decide which methods suit their needs and goals. She adapts strategies over time so sessions remain relevant and focused on what the person wants to change.
The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports using written exercises, worksheets and in-session practice that translate well to remote conversations. Appropriately qualified therapists can make these approaches work effectively through remote sessions when the format fits the person's life and goals.
