Therapists in Corvallis, OR

Often times, navigating relationships can be similar to walking through a minefield. The only problem is that most of us tend to step on a few mines. The deep hurt and emotional trauma that each exploding mine causes in our lives is carried into all subsequent relationships we dare to enter. In dealing with the pain of past relationships, many struggle to cope and find solutions to push back against their very real pain; many of these solution cause deep wounds of their own.

Hello, my name is AJ Millet. I am a licensed psychologist working via telehealth in Corvallis. I accept Pacific Source, IHN, and Samaritan Choice insurances. I believe that therapy can be powerful, vulnerable, nerve-wracking, and everything in between. I work to build a relationship of safety, respect, and honesty. Regardless of what brings you into therapy, I want you to feel assured that you will be met with compassion as we navigate the concerns in your life.

I have been working in the field since 1998 and have been in private practice since 2002. My experience is with a broad spectrum of physical, mental, and emotional difficulties. In private practice I do work with people in a traditional therapeutic setting, but I offer other methods that have been effective with clients who have not been receptive to other treatment.

I believe everyone deserves to be content/happy in life and in their relationships. At times, this can be challenging and people tend to get "stuck." Asking for help can be hard, but so rewarding when you take the risk to change and build awareness. With professional skills, loads of compassion, and a collaborative effort I can definitely help adults, teenagers, and families in figuring out how to get "unstuck" and enjoy their lives to the fullest. I have extensive experience working with anxiety, grief, depression, and PTSD. I particularly like working with clients, helping them free themselves from the trauma of the past.

I am accepting new clients. I help clients who seek to increase their strengths, awareness, openness, flexibility, intelligence (IQ and EQ), resiliency, create empowering processes and solutions leading to meaningful life engagement, and improving quality of life. I have worked with all ages, backgrounds and issues, individuals, couples and families. I have found the best predictor of effective therapy is how well the client connects with the therapist. I am open to working with all people, cultures and conditions.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed or have you lost motivation? Have you been through trauma? Does ADHD or Autism impact your day to day function? You may have tried to find your own ways to cope and have just run out of ideas. Reaching out for counseling can be challenging, and I get that. Maybe you are skeptical that counseling is the right place for you. I believe that everyone is capable of changing their lives for the better.

Trauma is a highly complex and personal experience. Everyone's experience and definition of trauma is different. Among both professionals and clients, it is often incredibly misunderstood. It affects us across physical, social, emotional, and spiritual bounds. It compromises our ability to process sensory input and renders us incapable of communicating at times. Traumatic experiences can make us feel "small" and incompetent, incapable of managing basic tasks at times, or we may even develop intermittent or chronic pain.

Only accepting IHN and cash online clients. Do you sometimes feel like your own mind is against you? Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, existential angst, lack of motivation, or interpersonal alienation and difficulty getting your needs met? I have a whole bag of tricks that I've developed in my 15+ year career that may help; and what I've found helps most is the therapeutic relationship itself. My goal as a counselor is always to be a mental health ally, to be present and focused. To help you figure out concrete and actionable goals to help you grow more towards being the best version of yourself.

Are you currently struggling and seeking to better understand yourself and/or work through experiences of feeling stuck? Do your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, or patterns feel disappointing, overwhelming, or seem to drift from your goals? We can collaborate to understand what is most valuable to you, the ways in which you struggle and what is most effective for you in your journey forward. We can discover the most useful tools for you on your own healing path as you metabolize that which seems to be stuck, and grow in your own unique way.

We all become (at some point) shackled to a stuck version of ourselves. Being vulnerable enough to choose something other than our perfectly practiced persona can seem ~impossible. Is your ~asker too broken to learn another way? It takes courage to recreate, redefine, and let go of what doesn't work! "I Don't Know," become very important words when we choose to sail the rough seas...and yet, the risk can be so beautiful. It becomes excruciatingly clear that the pain of staying where we are, must become more acute than leaping into something wonderfully new!

I like helping individual clients with depression, trauma, communication, self-esteem, and academic/career issues. Most of the clients I work with had been thinking about getting help for a long time, but either wanted to try and deal with it themselves or thought counseling was only for other people. I know talking about mental health still carries a stigma for some and I respect the courage of everyone who moves past that stigma to enter my office.

Sometimes life can present us with enormous challenges. Other times it might be life’s cumulative little difficulties that slowly weigh us down over time. Perhaps you have been experiencing sadness or anxiety and are unsure of how to address such discomfort. Maybe you believe that you could benefit from embracing a new perspective. In therapy we can work on issues of depression, anxiety, grief, minority stress, and identity issues. I also specialize in religious abuse/trauma in gender and sexual minority populations, and am passionate about helping clients heal from their pasts and learn to live lives consistent with their values.

This is effective for motivated individuals and helps establish long-term stable results.

Struggles at home, work, school, or church can lead to frustration and doubt. There are ways that you can move from surviving through life to really have peace with life. People find that the increased frustration effects their life in ways of lost focus, broken relationships, discomfort in crowds, and loss of confidence to name a few. These all lead to the anxiety which makes one believe there is no escape. Do you find that you continue to feeling as if nothing will change? Do you find that many years of therapy have led to no results?

Hey! I’m Corey and I am welcoming new clients. If you're grappling with how to feel better, navigate relationships, or work through tough times, I'm here to offer support. Whether you're looking to strengthen your connection with yourself, improve emotional flexibility, or regain motivation and inspiration, we can work on that together. Let's have a conversation and figure out practical steps to make positive changes in your life.

From time to time, the complexity of life demands something that overwhelms our usual coping strategies. These challenges can sometimes be brought on by relationships, careers, family, or health. Or perhaps it’s something more connected to our core understanding of the world around us. The meaning we've made from life's past events serves as a template for how we will process each new experience in the future. My goal is to help facilitate an insight-oriented process of understanding why we feel the way we do and provide a source of strength and a healthy curiosity to lead to a better tomorrow.
