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.

Joliet is a city southwest of Chicago in Will County with a complex character that blends post-industrial working-class heritage, significant suburban growth, and a disproportionate association with the correctional system—the Stateville Correctional Center and Joliet's former prison are among the most prominent landmarks, and the city has a large population connected to criminal justice employment, incarceration, and reentry. The city's population is racially diverse, with significant Black and Latino communities, and economic inequality creates meaningful variation in access to mental health care across different neighborhoods. Local hospitals and community providers offer behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves those with the means to access it. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, trauma, family stress, and the particular challenges of reentry and the psychological weight of living in a community shaped by its proximity to mass incarceration.
