About Cornelius

Cornelius "Corey" Human is a counsellor who focuses on men's wellbeing and practical support for stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. He brings 18 years of direct experience helping people manage depression, addictions, grief and the strain of major life changes. Sessions are available in English and Afrikaans and he is based in Australia.

Corey uses approaches that aim to make daily life more manageable. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice what matters and change unhelpful patterns. Attachment-based work and emotionally-focused methods guide conversations about closeness and trust in relationships.

People can expect straightforward, conversational sessions that focus on clear steps and real-world changes. Corey tends to keep conversations grounded and practical, looking at what is getting in the way now and what small shifts could help. He also offers coaching-style support for career and life transitions.

He has worked for almost two decades with adults, couples and adolescents on a wide range of issues including ADHD, trauma, intimacy-related concerns and parenting stresses. His practice includes attention to areas like abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment issues and blended family challenges.

Corey holds PACFA, which indicates a recognised professional affiliation in the field. If a reader wants to match with him they should use the Start Therapy process on this site and follow the steps to book a session.

How CORE therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes by focusing on actions rather than on fighting thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical tools to break unhelpful cycles; it is often used for anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating and can help when trust, closeness or communication are causing strain in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Corey will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together they will try approaches that feel like a good fit. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress or new needs emerge.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so readers should confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around busy days, reduce travel time, or allow a shorter check-in when that is all someone needs. It can also let people use different communication methods when arranging appointments, but the exact formats offered by Corey should be checked during the booking process.
