About Coralya
LCSW in California with 7 years of experience, Coralya (Cory) Mazariego helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, bipolar disorder, and depression. She works with concerns that often overlap, such as communication problems, family problems, guilt and shame, isolation, questions about life purpose, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and women's issues. Sessions are framed around the client's experience and strengths.
Cory treats people as experts in their own stories. She looks for the strengths clients already have and builds on them. Conversations focus on practical steps and coping strategies that fit into daily life. She emphasizes direct, clear talk rather than jargon.
In sessions she listens for patterns that maintain problems, then helps people try small changes. This can mean practicing new ways to communicate, testing healthier routines, or learning techniques to reduce anxiety and manage mood swings. Work on addictions and grief includes concrete coping plans and follow-through steps.
Her approach is collaborative. Cory makes space for a client's goals and suggests short-term tasks to track progress between sessions. She also checks in on how those tasks worked and adjusts the plan as needed. The pace is set by the person in therapy.
People who contact her should expect straightforward, practical conversations about what is troubling them now and what could help next. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session so they can discuss goals and next steps.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work in remote sessions
Two evidence-based techniques commonly used for problems like anxiety and depression are behavioral activation and skills-based coping. Behavioral activation focuses on reintroducing manageable activities that bring structure and small rewards, which can lift mood and reduce avoidance. Skills-based coping teaches concrete tools for managing stress, cravings, or intense emotions, such as grounding exercises, breathing techniques, and step-by-step relapse prevention planning.For grief, practical grief work concentrates on remembering, meaning-making, and building daily routines that allow adjustment over time. These methods help people make small, observable changes and track what is and isn’t helping. The therapist works collaboratively to decide which techniques to try based on the client's goals and experiences.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options in the first sessions and choose approaches together, adjusting them as needed. This collaborative planning helps make sure methods fit the person's life, needs, and preferences.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let people try sessions without needing to be on camera, or keep appointments that would otherwise be missed due to work or logistics.
