About Cori-Ann
Cori-Ann Feiner-Escoto is a New Jersey psychologist with 25 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are struggling with trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and issues with self-esteem. Cori-Ann also addresses mood-related difficulties and related stresses that affect daily life.
She describes clients as the experts in their own stories and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on clear conversation about what is happening now, practical skills to manage symptoms, and steps to change patterns that no longer serve the client. Cori-Ann uses approaches that blend behavioral strategies with acceptance and reflection.
Her practice includes attention to family of origin issues and the ways childhood role patterns can carry into adult relationships and choices. She helps people talk through communication problems, control issues, and feelings of isolation or emptiness that are tied to those patterns. She also addresses practical stressors such as caregiver strain, cancer-related concerns, and the challenges of divorce or separation.
Across sessions she may draw on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking, dialectical behavior ideas for emotion regulation, and acceptance-based work to clarify values and committed action. The overall pace is steady and focused on what the client wants to change. Cori-Ann aims to help people develop tools they can use between meetings.
Her practice is based in New Jersey and services are provided in English. People interested in beginning the process are asked to use the online sign-up path and complete a short questionnaire before scheduling a first session.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings and choosing actions that match personal values. This approach can help people who feel stuck by family expectations or patterns rooted in childhood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offers concrete exercises to shift unhelpful thinking and routines. CBT is useful for addressing low self-esteem, mood symptoms, and coping with loss.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cori-Ann will collaborate with the client to decide which methods make the most sense based on their goals, preferences, and what they want to change. That decision is revisited over time as needs evolve.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow focused check-ins from wherever a person is located. Some approaches translate well to a virtual setting because they use exercises, worksheets, and short skill practices that can be done between sessions. Ask about the available session formats when you complete the initial questionnaire.
