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.

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.

Joy Powell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MA Socio, MSW, LCSW
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a master’s degree in Sociology, my therapeutic practice is built on a deep understanding that healing does not happen in a vacuum, it is shaped by the systems we live within, the roles we are asked to play, and the identities we carry. This dual lens allows me to support clients in ways that are both deeply personal and socially aware, bridging emotional insight with an understanding of the wider cultural and structural influences on our lives.
In our work together, I will help you explore not only your internal landscape—your thoughts, emotions, and patterns—but also how your lived experiences have been shaped by family systems, societal expectations, and cultural norms. Together, we will cultivate a therapeutic space where your humanity is deeply acknowledged and your full self is supported and respected.
Clients often tell me they feel truly heard, not just for what they are going through, but for the context in which those struggles have taken root. This kind of care can be transformational, especially for those who have felt misunderstood or pressured to “fix” themselves without first feeling safe enough to truly BE themselves.
Therapy with me is not about offering quick fixes, it is about co-creating a relationship that is grounded in trust, reflection, and steady support. I offer a warm, down-to-earth, and thoughtful presence that invites curiosity, connection, and sustainable change. If you are seeking a therapist who honors both your personal story and the world that shaped it, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward deeper understanding and lasting well-being.

Dr. Jake Johnson
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
My name is Jake Johnson and I am the founder of Bristlecone Therapy. I've been practicing marriage and family therapy (MFT) for over 15 years. I also work as a professor of MFT at Wheaton College, where I have taught for over a decade. In more recent years I've become a certified life coach, and I am currently the president-elect of the International Family Therapy Association.
On a personal note, I've been married for 15 years. I have four boys, ages 13 to 6. I love to travel, hike in the mountains and read fiction. I have done a whole bunch of my own therapy, spiritual direction, and personal and group retreats (as I deeply believe that if I am not healthy, then I certainly can't help my clients to be).
