Best known for his appearance on Harry and Oprah's The Me You Can't See on Apple TV+, Dr. Corey Yeager is a licensed marriage and family therapist at the doctoral level, focusing his therapeutic practice primarily on serving the African American community. Dr. Yeager holds a bachelor of arts degree in psychology from Metropolitan State University, a master of arts degree in psychotherapy from Argosy University, and a PhD in family social science from the University of Minnesota. His research centers on better understanding the plight of African American relationships and educating service organizations to encourage meaningful change in those relationships.
Yeager served as the psychotherapist for the Detroit Pistons for five seasons. He is working within the merging of his two cornerstone passions: athletics and therapy. In his current role as a consultant for the United Football League (UFL), he supports the overall mission of the league while also working with players and coaches to build cohesiveness.
As Dr. Yeager has facilitated meaningful dialogue on the subject of race and racism, he has had "courageous conversations" about that across the country. Outside of the NBA and UFL, some of his clients include The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN), The Smithsonian Institute, the University of Southern California, WonderMind, The Gersh Agency, and Lola Red. He is also a part of the Engage Speakers Bureau based in Los Angeles.
