Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Starting therapy can feel intimidating—especially if you’ve been dealing with anxiety, trauma, mood swings, or feeling overwhelmed for a long time. I offer online therapy to adults 18+ in Rhode Island and Massachusetts, providing a supportive, non-judgmental space to help you feel more grounded and in control.
I specialize in anxiety disorders, trauma-informed care, ADHD, PTSD, and mood disorders, including bipolar disorder and major depression. I also have significant experience working with serious mental illness and complex presentations. My style is collaborative and practical, focused on building skills that actually help in day-to-day life.
Whether you’re struggling with panic, emotional regulation, intrusive thoughts, or the impact of past trauma, we’ll work together to create a treatment plan that fits your needs and goals. Sessions are offered via secure telehealth for convenience and accessibility.
I believe therapy works best when it feels collaborative, practical, and grounded in real life. Many of the people I work with come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted from managing anxiety, trauma, mood symptoms, or attention difficulties on their own. My role is to help you feel more stable, supported, and equipped with tools that actually help day to day.
I have extensive experience working with anxiety disorders, PTSD, ADHD, mood disorders, and serious mental illness, including bipolar disorder and psychotic-spectrum conditions. I take a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach and tailor treatment to each client’s goals, nervous system, and lived experience.
In our work together, we focus on understanding patterns, building coping and regulation skills, and creating meaningful change at a pace that feels safe and sustainable. I aim to provide a non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered.
I offer secure online therapy for adults 18+ throughout Rhode Island and Massachusetts.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Since the pandemic shook our world and the experience of how we connect with others, I have been practicing remotely. I have found that teletherapy has been as effective as meeting in person in terms of relationship building, creating a safe space, and communicating openly, honestly, and directly. For many clients with busy lives, online therapy reduces the obstacles of travel, traffic, and parking, and provides a simple way of managing billing/payment.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
In my online therapy practice, I specialize in EMDR therapy as a transformative approach to assist individuals in their journey towards healing from trauma and narcissistic abuse, ultimately guiding them back to a place of self-love and emotional equilibrium. The lingering effects of childhood physical, emotional, or sexual abuse, along with the enduring impact of narcissistic abuse, can become deeply entrenched within the body, leading to symptoms of depression, anxiety, hypervigilance, and challenges in navigating relationships and daily life.
I employ a video platform known as remotEMDR, which is specifically designed to facilitate EMDR therapy. This innovative approach aims to reshape the way these distressing memories are stored in the brain, fostering resolution and inner peace. To complement this therapy, I incorporate mind-body practices such as mindfulness, meditation, and breathwork, all of which serve to amplify the healing process.
Drawing on my background as a neuropsychologist, I possess the expertise to help individuals identify their blind spots, condition their thoughts, and ultimately rewire their brains for enduring happiness and success. My mission is to provide a comprehensive and holistic approach to healing that empowers individuals on their path to transformation and well-being.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’ve already done work and want to go deeper. I offer a supportive, down-to-earth space to sort through what feels stuck, overwhelming, or hard to name. My approach is rooted in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and trauma-informed care, but always tailored to what you need most.
I work with adults carrying the weight of childhood neglect or trauma, as well as those navigating stress in parenting, relationships, or work. Along the way, we focus on building clarity, connection, and trust so change feels possible—and lasting.
I also provide consultation and supervision for licensed therapists and offer parenting consultations. My practice is 100% telehealth, making therapy more flexible and accessible across Washington State and Psychpact states throughout the United States.

Providence is home to Brown University, Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), and Providence College — together generating significant student mental health demand and a creative, intellectually engaged population that views therapy favorably and tends toward longer-term, exploratory work. The city has a large Cape Verdean and Latino community, with a significant Guatemalan and Dominican population that creates demand for culturally affirming, Spanish-speaking therapists who understand the particular dynamics of immigrant family life in New England. Rhode Island Hospital and Lifespan Health provide institutional mental health resources, while Brown's Warren Alpert Medical School maintains important psychiatric training programs. Providence's arts and hospitality economy creates consistent demand for therapists experienced with creative identity, economic precarity, and the mental health challenges of artists and performers.
