Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Have you ever felt like you were busy doing all the things you thought would bring you a happy life, yet felt alone and disconnected from yourself and others? These feelings are often when people turn to alcohol, drugs, food, shopping or relationships to try to create those feelings of happiness, contentment and joy. It can work for a short time however the key to moving forward is to understand the reasons we seek out these distractions. When we strengthen the relationship with ourselves, the outer world becomes much more balanced and fulfilling. In our work together, you’ll gain tools to care for your nervous system, set healthier boundaries, and create a more positive and sustainable way of living.

Dr. Vincent Dyer - Dyer Psychology, Inc
Psychologist, PsyD
Most of the people I work with are functioning — sometimes very well — but privately aware that something deserves real attention. That might be burnout, grief, anxiety that doesn't have an obvious source, a relationship under strain, or a growing sense that who they are and who they've become don't quite line up.
What they have in common isn't a career level or a specific presenting problem. It's that they're serious about understanding what's actually going on — not just getting through it.
My practice is private pay and selective. I also conduct comprehensive psychological evaluations for adults, including ADHD assessment and diagnostic clarification. I hold a PSYPACT license, meaning I'm authorized to provide telehealth therapy across 40+ states — the full list is above.
If this sounds like where you are, a brief consultation is a low-stakes way to find out if we're a good fit.

Jasmine Turner
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed, MS, LCPC
We support clients throughout the collaborative therapeutic process, helping individuals discover their voice and experience greater freedom on the journey toward healing, wholeness, and wellness. The goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where individuals feel free to process emotions, be vulnerable and show up authentically. Through empowerment, self-awareness, and accountability, we strive to help clients release unhelpful behaviors, patterns, thought processes, and relationships that will no longer serve the healed and evolved version of themselves.

Brandon Johnson
Counselor/Therapist, LGSW
When people see you, they think you have a perfect life. You're focused, determined, and accomplished, but when you look on the inside, you feel lost and incapable of living up to your potential. You see the negative version of yourself, and no matter how hard you try to change, you just haven't been able to get over that hump. It's become exhausting, and you feel like giving up. Don't be last in your own life, while taking care of everyone else. You're tired of always having to be strong, when you feel like everything is against you. Instead of living life stressed out, it's time for a change.
You want to finally relax and enjoy the life you’ve worked so hard to create. You want to learn this whole "self-care" thing and finally learn how to put yourself first without feeling guilty or selfish. You're ready to quiet the inner critic so that you can feel more positive and create the change you want in your life. I can help you get there.
