Amber Pfeiffer
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, ARNP, PMHNP-BC
I work with my clients to develop self-compassion, increased self-esteem, resilience to stress, encouragement during times of high stress or low motivation, better time-management, & adaptation to transitions such as starting college or a new nursing job. I find clients have excellent progress applying the practice of mind-body skills & guided imagery, especially when processing trauma, grief, or exploring attachment patterns developed in childhood.
I believe there is a place for medications, and they help many people, I also understand that many people do not benefit from medications. I can help clients reduce their alcohol intake and safely taper off of benzodiazepines and other medications.
By taking a proactive, individualized approach to your care, we can work together to develop a plan tailored to your personal goals. Clients tell me they "feel much better" after our sessions, that I am "very responsive", & they like my "vibe".

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.

My approach is client-centered and evidence informed, with a focus on helping clients navigate emotional challenges and improve overall well-being. I also utilize healthy humor in my sessions as I believe it can be very healing in the therapeutic process.
