Enma Cordero Rodriguez
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP
I understand that seeking help can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re looking for someone who truly 'gets it.' My journey in medicine began as a physician in Cuba, and today, as a Board-Certified PMHNP and DNP candidate, I bring that depth of medical knowledge to every session. I specialize in helping high-achieving professionals and families navigate the complexities of ADHD, Anxiety, and Depression.
Being bilingual in English and Spanish, I am committed to providing culturally competent care where nothing is 'lost in translation.' My goal is to move past the labels and help you rediscover a sense of balance and clarity. You aren’t just a diagnosis to me; you are a whole person, and I’m here to support your path to wellness with both science and soul

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.

Vada Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
At Vada Counseling, all of our therapists are queer and/or trans, and we bring that lived experience into every session. We understand the realities you’re navigating, and you won't have to explain, defend, or translate your identity or experiences. Our work is grounded in liberation, cultural humility, and care that rejects pathologizing frameworks.
We focus on collaborative, transparent therapy where consent, autonomy, and shared power lead the way. Clients come to us when they want support that recognizes trauma, identity, and systemic harm without losing sight of individual strengths and self-determination. If you’re looking for care rooted in decolonizing and anti-carceral values, Vada Counseling offers a space where you can simply be, and be understood.

Edna Brinkley
Psychologist, PhD, ART, CCATP
Women hire me to help them overcome overthinking. What this looks like is, together, we figure out which thoughts, behaviors, attitudes, and emotions about situations, people, even yourself, are stressing you out and then teach you easy-to-learn, very practical, personalized, evidence-based skills and strategies to deal with them. We'll work hard to get to the root of what's causing you distress.
Moreover, whether you call it anxiety, panic attacks, or nerves, we believe it could be rooted in not knowing how best to handle your sources and symptoms of stress.
To help us determine if we're a good fit for individual therapy, I offer a free 15-minute phone conversation.
