Cori-Ann Feiner-Escoto, NJ Psychologist 35SI00435100

Cori-Ann Feiner-Escoto is a licensed New Jersey psychologist with 25 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are coping with trauma, abuse, grief, loss, and struggles with self-esteem. Cori-Ann focuses on practical steps and steady support as people work toward clearer goals and better day-to-day functioning.

She believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths into the work. Sessions emphasize clear goals, honest conversation, and skills people can use between meetings. Cori-Ann draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking and build different habits.

Her background includes long experience with mood-related difficulties and related stresses such as caregiving strain, problems stemming from cancer, and the effects of divorce or separation. She also works with issues tied to family of origin, domestic violence, first responder stress, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation or emptiness. That breadth helps when problems overlap or change over time.

In the room she aims for a warm, direct style. People can expect to talk through what matters most, try simple experiments between sessions, and track small changes over weeks. Cori-Ann helps set realistic steps that match everyday life.

She offers sessions from New Jersey and conducts them in English. Her practice uses an approach that balances practical tools and deeper reflection to support steady progress.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online sessions can use CBT to set clear goals, practice new skills, and review short homework between meetings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and taking committed action even with difficult feelings, which can help people find meaning and steady choices during stress.

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and empathy, giving people space to tell their story and find their own answers. Cori-Ann will collaborate with each person to choose the mix of approaches that fits their needs, goals, and preferences rather than using one fixed method. That decision happens together and can shift as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can work for brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or when someone prefers writing over speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work between in-person visits.
