Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Online therapy in Rhode Island for anxiety, trauma, ADHD, and mood disorders. I work with adults 18+ seeking practical, evidence-based support for anxiety, PTSD, panic, emotional regulation, and serious mental health concerns, including bipolar disorder and psychotic-spectrum conditions. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and focused on real-world coping skills that help clients feel more stable and in control. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or stuck, I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space to help you move forward with confidence.

Shaelyn Cataldo
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-A, PMH-C
I believe symptoms are often messages, not flaws. Anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional overwhelm, and relationship struggles are frequently adaptations developed in response to earlier experiences and environments. My role is to help clients understand these patterns with compassion rather than criticism.
I provide a warm, honest, and direct therapeutic space where insight is paired with meaningful action. Together, we explore how your past experiences continue to shape your present relationships, nervous system, and sense of self while gently building new ways of relating to yourself and others.
I integrate EMDR, somatic therapy, attachment-focused work, and parts work to help clients heal at the root, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create lasting change.

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.

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.
