I believe therapy is a wonderful journey with a trusted Therapist. I have been through therapy myself so I understand it from the clinician’s point of you as well as from a client’s point of view. I think everyone deserves to feel good and reach his or her full potential. I look forward to joining you on your journey 🙂

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.

Amanda Cummings Brandenburg
Psychologist, PhD
I am a counseling psychologist with a high level of personal responsibility and a strong drive to provide high-quality counseling services. I strive to individualize my services to each client’s needs and do not follow a “one-size-fits-all” approach. I believe therapy is an art AND a science and pay special attention to the needs and preferences of each client. I keep a small caseload to help prevent burnout and to allow myself to better focus on the individuals I serve.
I identify as a first-generation college student, a cycle-breaker, and a mother to a child with a disability called Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA). I know what it is like to persevere and overcome hardships in everyday life. I also strongly value bringing humanness and humility to my counseling practice, allowing for authentic connection.
