Center for Authentic Life & Relationship, LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, LMFT, CPCS, CSAT-S, CAADC, EMDR, CSTOP-Candidate
I specialize in helping survivors of sexual abuse heal from the emotional, relational, and psychological impact of what they have endured. My training in sexual addiction and sexual offender treatment gives me a deeper understanding of abusive patterns, grooming behaviors, secrecy, manipulation, and the dynamics that often leave survivors feeling confused, ashamed, or responsible for what happened. This knowledge informs my work with survivors by helping me provide trauma-informed, compassionate, and effective care that supports safety, clarity, empowerment, and healing.

Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I specialize in providing therapy and psychological assessments for children, adolescents, and adults impacted by trauma, with a particular focus on survivors of childhood sexual abuse. I am trained in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) and as part of a federally funded clinical treatment study, have delivered CBT for PTSD to trauma-impacted college students. I have a strong commitment to addressing the unique needs of those who have experienced trauma, including autistic individuals, and have presented on adapting trauma therapy for this population at the Philadelphia Trauma Training Conference. Additionally, I have presented at The American Professional Society on the Abuse of Children Colloquiums. My experience includes peer-reviewed research examining trauma, PTSD, and their connections to ADHD, further reinforcing my expertise in understanding and addressing the complex effects of abuse and trauma.
