Paul Sather, PhD

I am a clinical psychologist with over 30 years experience helping adults and adolescents manage their struggles with anxiety, depression and interpersonal conflicts.

My goal is to help my client to be the best version of their Self, whether we are working on anxiety, depression, relationship problems, addiction, spiritual issues, grief or trauma, etc, The initial phase of therapy is addressing the issue that brought them into my office. Next, we work on the underlying issues that contributed to the struggles they are having. I focus on developing skills of emotional management. These skills help to manage emotions so they are coloring life rather than controlling life. We also look at habitual patterns of interpreting their circumstances and familiar ways of being that are keeping them stuck. We concentrate on getting control of the things that can be controlled and letting go of those that cannot. We also address the habits of their internal critic and the ways they respond to those judgements. The overall goal is developing a peaceful life that is resilient to the difficulties that may come in the future.

I have been married for over 30 years with 4 children and 5 grandchildren (so far). I am a musician, playing bass in a number of bands over the years. I love to ski and sail and am a DIYer that has remodeled my home pretty much myself.
