Coretta and Martin

As we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we also shine a light on the remarkable contributions of Coretta Scott King, a steadfast advocate for justice, equality, and human rights. Her legacy reminds us of the enduring strength required to pursue healing and change—values we hold close at Cory Cove Wellness.


Coretta Scott King was more than Dr. King’s partner; she was a leader in her own right, dedicating her life to fostering unity, uplifting marginalized communities, and advocating for peace. As a mother, activist, and champion for mental and emotional resilience, she exemplified how healing and strength can coexist in the face of adversity.

Her work extends far beyond the Civil Rights Movement, with efforts to advance women’s rights, LGBTQ+ equality, and access to education. These initiatives reflect her belief that collective well-being begins with inclusivity, compassion, and the courage to care for one another—a mission that mirrors the services we offer at Cory Cove Wellness:


  • Couples Counseling: Supporting strong, meaningful partnerships built on trust and respect.

  • SMART Therapy: Promoting resilience and self-awareness in overcoming challenges.

  • Play Therapy: Empowering children to process their emotions and grow confidently.

  • Deaf Services: Providing accessible care to ensure no one is left behind.

  • Individual Counseling: Helping people find healing and clarity in life’s complexities.


This MLK Day, let us reflect on Coretta’s example of advocacy, compassion, and the transformative power of healing. How can we honor her legacy in our own lives? Perhaps it’s through listening more intently, fostering deeper connections, or working to ensure that everyone in our community feels supported and valued.


At Cory Cove Wellness, we’re inspired by the Kings’ vision of a world where everyone can thrive. If you or someone you care about is seeking a space to heal and grow, we are here to walk that journey with you. Together, we can build a more inclusive, equitable, and compassionate future—one step at a time.
