Meet Joe

I’m Joe Corley, a Licensed Therapist, Mental Wellness Consultant, and educator with over 20 years of experience in education and mental health. I hold master’s degrees in both Education and Counseling, and my journey has been shaped by a deep passion for helping others heal and thrive.

After years of teaching, I realized my impact could reach far beyond the classroom. On my own healing journey, I discovered the transformative power of therapy and mental wellness, especially for the BIPOC community, where stigma and systemic barriers often hinder access to care.

This realization inspired me to create Real U Behavioral Health Consulting, PLLC—a space dedicated to addressing mental health disparities and empowering people of color to embrace their authentic selves. At Real U, I focus on providing compassionate care and creating resources that help individuals and families navigate mental health challenges with confidence and support.

Through therapy, public speaking, and my podcast

Vulnerability is the New Sexy, I strive to normalize seeking help, foster connection, and guide others toward mental wellness with grace, empathy, and vulnerability.
