Sean Corbin, LLPC

It is an honor and privilege to walk along side you during this therapeutic journey. Your effort at personal growth takes courage and is amazing. Life is challenging but there are solutions and pathways to healing. I am here for support and will compassionately yet firmly nudge you when needed. Together we will establish a strong therapeutic alliance and an atmosphere of safety and healing. If you trust the process, self-observe, and be curious, you will build effective coping skills to feel and do better.

“Moments of crisis, if we find the courage and skill to effectively face it, are life’s opportunities for growth.” – Sean Corbin

I am a LPC and earned a Master of Arts degree in Integrated Recovery for Co-Occurring Disorders from Hazelden Betty Ford Graduate School. I also earned a Master of Public Administration degree from Western Michigan University. Additional certifications include CADC and CCJP, and I’m certified to facilitate Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT), domestic violence-specific MRT, and DBT-informed therapy. Additionally, I’m trained in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as well as Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. Criminogenic risk, needs, and responsivity (RNR) assessments and programming are also an area of expertise.
With over 27 years of experience in various roles within the human services field, I’ve dedicated my professional life to helping others and improving the quality of the systems that serve the community.
