Hello, my name is Korine Starkey, a licensed therapist in Ohio. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on compassionate, holistic care that honors each person's unique journey. I have extensive experience helping clients address challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and self-esteem issues.

My therapeutic work focuses on empowering individuals to develop deeper self-understanding, improve communication, and cultivate meaningful connections. I'm particularly passionate about supporting clients through life transitions, social challenges, and personal growth processes. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore your experiences.

Drawing from evidence-based practices, I collaborate with clients to develop personalized strategies that promote healing, resilience, and authentic self-expression. My goal is to help you build stronger, more compassionate relationships—both with yourself and others. I look forward to accompanying you on your healing journey.

"Through my own life experiences, I've learned that life is filled with unexpected challenges and moments of uncertainty and having someone to help navigate through it all makes a world of difference"

Why did you decide to become a counselor or psychiatric provider?

I knew I wanted to become a counselor when I was in my teens. I had a therapist to help guide me through some challenges and from there I knew I wanted to do the same for others.

What types of clients do you work best with?

I work best with individuals who have a desire for change, growth, and healing.

What's one thing you wish all clients knew about therapy, mental health, or the healing process?

I wish clients knew that therapy can be one of the best things that you could ever do for yourself.

What can clients expect in their first session with you and in the early stages of therapy?

During first session and in the early stages of therapy, clients can expect to have an opportunity to share their experiences, thoughts, and feelings in a safe space where they are heard and respected.

What personal experiences or values inform your practice as a therapist/provider?

I value family, peace, growth, and healing which guides my work as a therapist.

How do you tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs?

I work with individuals, families. and couples to develop personalized treatment goals that will cater to their specific needs.
