Our Therapist

Welcome to Matlock Corley Community Solutions! My name is Evalena Matlock-Corley, (BSc, MEd, MSW RSW). I have 20 years of experience in human services and 6 years of psychotherapy experience, specializing in working with women, students, and Black, Indigenous & People of Color (BIPOC). My passion for helping these groups with their mental wellness comes from my own experiences in living and thriving through my own life. As a wife, mother, advocate, and woman of African descent, I enjoy being able to connect with those who share similar experiences.

In 2010, after years of trying to start a family, I had more miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies than I care to recall. Once I successfully became pregnant, I became a mom for the first time with a beautiful daughter. Unfortunately, I suffered a stroke and brain surgery during the time and had to overcome obstacles of both physical and mental health to gain back my life. 

I am here to help you write your own story and conquer your anxiety, depression, pressure, and stress. I am also here as a listening ear for you to express your feelings, thoughts, and ideas.  You are valuable, and your story matters!

Our Mission

My mission is to provide counseling services for everyone with a special emphasis on BIPOC therapy.

I am privileged to walk alongside my clients as they navigate the uncertainties and challenges of life. In the midst of their present circumstances and challenges, I provide support to my clients with care and compassion. It is through our strong, relational connection that clients become empowered to move ahead in healthy and productive ways.

Values

Environmental – I provide a non-judgemental and confidential environment in which clients can engage the messiness of life with curiosity, perspective, audacity, and hope.

Meaningful Connections – I create a safe space where clients are seen and heard. I recognize the courage that is necessary to engage in this connection.

Supportive Guidance – I respectfully encourage and empower my clients with emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual support that will help them overcome their issues to position themselves for success and personal growth.
