Paul Sather
Psychologist, PhD
I work with people to help them be the best version of their Self. Whether we are working on anxiety, depression, relationship problems, addiction, spiritual issues, grief or trauma, etc, We usually begin with the initial phase of getting through the issue that got them through the door of my office. After that we work on the underlying issues that contributed to the struggles they are having. I focus on developing the skills of emotional management so that a person's emotions are coloring their life rather than running their life. We look at habitual patterns of interpreting their circumstances and familiar bodily states that are keeping them stuck. We concentrate on getting control of the things they can control and letting go of those they cannot control. We also address the habits of their internal critic and the ways they respond to those judgements with the goal of developing a peaceful life that is resilient to the difficulties that may come in the future.

Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
True change often requires more than just learning new coping skills; it requires an environment where you can safely explore the deeper layers of your experience. With over three decades of clinical practice, my approach is rooted in the belief that the relationship between therapist and client is the primary engine for lasting transformation. I specialize in a developmental psychodynamic model, which means, though our relationship, we explore what factors stand behind patterns that have been interfering with experiencing life in the way you really want, whether it be in relationships, at work or in leisure pursuits. If you have the interest or inclination, this exploration can also take place within a Jungian framework, looking at ways to understand ourselves more deeply, such as through dreams or creative productions, and to better integrate conscious and unconscious life.
I have particular expertise and experience working with trauma in a way that integrates emotional safety, the capacity for self-regulation and the mind-body connection. I also am well experienced working with late adolescents and young adults as they (and their families) navigate greater independence and autonomy, including when this navigation stalls, leaving the young person stuck and struggling to move forward or take steps to leave the parental home.
Whether we are working through the challenges of a major life transition or diving into the symbolic language of dreams through a Jungian lens, my goal is to help you move beyond temporary relief toward a more integrated, meaningful life. Whether you are a parent seeking support for your child or an adult looking to rediscover purpose in mid-life or retirement, I approach psychotherapy as a quintessential tool and the therapy relationship as a grounding and growth-oriented connection.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In the intricate tapestry of our lives, the pursuit of happiness, safety, and love is a universal quest. Yet, for many, the journey toward emotional wellness is fraught with challenges beyond their control. Trauma, familial history, and the burdens of life can cast shadows that obscure life's inherent beauty. I believe that each individual deserves to uncover, rediscover, and reclaim life's joy and purpose.
As a compassionate and dedicated psychoanalytical therapist, I aim to guide you through this transformative process with warmth and understanding. Through welcoming and conversational counseling services, I aim to create a space where you can explore the intricate connections between your mind, body, and spirit. This holistic approach seeks to assist you in reconnecting with your higher purpose, allowing you to navigate life unburdened by emotional pain.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Are you looking for a therapist who is engaging, warm, understanding, experienced and very knowledgeable? If so, I'm your therapist. I have helped others like you improve their relationships, overcome anxiety, depression and anger. Even if you have lost hope, together we can build self-confidence, strengthen resilience, and find motivation to overcome the obstacles. Whether you come for individual, or for couples therapy, my clients are often surprised what can be overcome and how much better things can be.
Most people spend weeks or even months contemplating getting professional help. During that time, most continue to do what hasn't worked and things can deteriorate fast. When you contact me today, you are opening the door to relieving distressful symptoms and living a better life.

Mary Gale Gurnsey
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I became passionate about this work because I've witnessed how deeply relationship trauma affects people's ability to trust themselves and others. Many of my clients come in feeling lost, unsure of what healthy actually looks like, and carrying the weight of past relationships where they lost their sense of self.
What I love most is helping people recognize that they're not broken — they're responding logically to what they've experienced. By understanding your attachment patterns and past dynamics, we can build a different future. My goal is to help you feel secure in yourself while building relationships where you're truly valued as an equal partner.
I believe therapy should be collaborative, non-judgmental, and respectful of your pace.
