Therapists in Corvallis, OR

I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. If you are Neurodiverse, BIPOC or a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, you are welcome here. I offer a safe, non-judgemental haven and space for those seeking understanding and validation. I believe in allowing individuals to externalize their issues rather than internalize them while also developing skills and a sense of purpose to navigate through difficult times.

Feeling anxious or overwhelmed with life? Need someone to turn to for relief, someone who can walk beside you through difficult situations and help with new ways to cope for a better experience in life and in your relationships. I am here to support you and help you safely explore aspects of your life and emotions. I receive clinical supervision from Lakeetra Catchings LPC

As a therapist who identifies as queer and transmasc, my focus is on fostering a welcoming and inclusive space for individuals across the LGBTQ+ spectrum, as well as those who are neurodivergent, straight, or gender conforming. My goal is to ensure that everyone feels valued and supported in my practice. I have over 20 years experience, and offer private online sessions holding licenses in Washington, Oregon, Georgia, Florida, and New York.

I strive to bring strengths and resiliency to all clients. Being human is hard and my wish is to help all people feel more empowered navigating it. Working with individuals, couples and families, I find myself learning from each. I enjoy the opportunities I am allowed in teaching each person skills and alternative coping mechanisms to deal with their past, present, or future. My only goal is that you acquire from me the skills and tools needed to change your yesterdays and make new tomorrows. If you are ready and willing to trust the process, I promise to guide you along the way.

I am a compassionate and intuitive licensed psychotherapist & hypnotist. I have been practicing for 40 years.

With the Covid-19 Virus my therapy methods have gone to phone or Tele Therapy. My therapeutic style is a holistic goal orientated approach to help patients better understand themselves by developing insight to their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and to cultivate the life that have you imagined or dreamed possible. I provide a safe and supportive environment to earn your trust to work on things that are the most challenging in your life. I know that it takes courage to reach out for help. Whatever brings us together, you will be welcomed with honesty and warmth to enable you to do your best work.

CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENT! Are you living your best life? Do you sense your life has become unmanageable? Do you struggle in relationships? If your story contains themes of depression, anxiety, addiction, interpersonal issues or just "seem to be stuck right now"; lets have a conversation to see how I can help you to create a better story. I'm a therapist, but I'm also a parent and wife who makes plenty of mistakes. Luckily, perfection isn't necessary or desirable. It often takes only small, positive changes to yield significant benefits. Things can get better, sometimes quickly, if you begin taking steps in the right direction.

Each individual & family has a story, though sometimes it may feel like you're no longer in control of how it's being written. I like to work with my clients so they become masters of their own story. In therapy, I take a client-centered approach to finding what works for each individual. I remain challenging yet sincere, open & non-judgmental to cater to client needs while ensuring a high standard of quality care. Therapy is a collaborative adventure to discover new skills or improve upon existing skills in order to create a more fulfilling & well-balanced life.

Are you experiencing life transitions, which may even lead to questioning your own identity? You may be asking yourself, “Who can I trust? Who am I?” Are you currently, or previously, experiencing depression and/or anxiety? Have you had traumas and/or grief experiences in your life? Do you identify as LGBTQ+, young adult, adult, and/or survivor of IPV?

Rising from the ashes of difficult and challenging times, the phoenix symbolizes growth, hope, and better things to come. Like the phoenix, we can all face challenges in our life. At Blue Phoenix Counseling, I believe that everyone has the potential to overcome their challenges and achieve their goals. I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment for my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. My therapy approach is tailored to each individual's unique needs and goals.

I am accepting new Tele-Therapy individuals & couples. It takes a lot of courage to admit you need help. However, it's the first step. I am excited to work with a vast array of clients, including those in the LGBTQ+/BDSM/Kink/Consensual Non-Monogamy community and those with religious shame, veterans, & those with criminal & substance use histories. If you are searching for internal stability, & grounding, I would love to help facilitate personal growth in a compassionate & safe environment. My goal is to assist you in moving towards self-acceptance & away from shame.

I'm an eclectic therapist trained in many evidence-based, holistic, and indigenous healing practices from my professional and lived experiences. With a wide ranging tool box, I’ve been successful in treating individuals with symptoms of trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, life stressors, identity concerns, family issues and addictive behaviors. I have been a counselor for over 14 years and identify as a third-culture psychologist. I see race-based and systemic trauma and work with individuals who identify with these communities. I'm neurodivergent and LGBTQI affirming therapist.

I provide mental health and career counseling to individuals and couples dealing with life's challenges. Do you want to understand more about yourself, about your identity, about the way the patterns you've learned in the past might no longer be serving you? Do you deal with the challenges of depression, anxiety, guilt, past trauma, and grief or loss? Come on in and we can explore all of it in a supportive environment.

Individuals and families, regardless of current challenges, if open to collaborate, introspect, and apply changes, clients will develop into a better version of their self.

With compassion and listening, I will work with you to identify your underlying issues, help you to clarify your core beliefs, and help you to release limiting beliefs and behavioral patterns. My goal is to support you, to deepen your capacity for self-reflection, acceptance, and life purpose. I will honor your strengths while helping you to work through life transitions. I work with individuals, couples, and families. I can integrate whatever style of therapy you are interested in (e.g. talk, education, interactive, area specific). I use John Gottman's therapy for couples counseling. I offer sliding scale or insurance billing.

I have worked in private practice as a clinical psychologist for over thirty years. Most of my clients arrive after trying various types of therapy and find my “explore-in-this-moment” approach refreshing and transformational. By distinguishing old defenses from new experience and encouraging clients to explore both sides of this fork separately, personal development naturally unfolds. In the work, I normalize the human tendency to resist change while offering clients the opportunity to step beyond the world they know to explore at the edge of the unknown, the source of all change.
