Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I am a licensed psychologist offering therapy, parent coaching, and comprehensive evaluations for autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, and developmental challenges. My approach focuses on empowering children, adolescents, and adults by identifying their strengths, addressing challenges, and building practical tools for growth and success. I take a strength-focused, neurodiversity-affirming approach, offering evidence-based strategies tailored to meet your specific needs. In addition to my work with neurodivergent individuals, I have extensive experience supporting those who are adopted or have experienced trauma, including related to chronic illness. My services are grounded in a trauma-informed framework for you to feel safe, understood, and confident as we work together. I believe that growth starts with collaboration, which is why my approach emphasizes working together towards practical solutions and achievable goals.

Inspired Hope Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile.
"People can cry much easier than they can change." — James Baldwin
Life can be challenging, and sometimes the weight of anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting struggles, family conflict, trauma, or major life transitions can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about what comes next. Taking the first step toward therapy is not always easy, but you do not have to navigate these challenges alone.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Parent Coach, educator, and mother of four with more than 20 years of experience helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families build healthier, more fulfilling lives. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, parenting support, adolescent issues, self-esteem, trauma, family relationships, and life transitions. I often joke that I speak fluent teen, but my true passion is helping people strengthen their relationships, improve communication, and develop the confidence needed to overcome life's challenges.
I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to provide guidance, support, and practical tools while helping you uncover the strengths that already exist within you. Together, we will create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore concerns, build resilience, develop healthy coping skills, and create meaningful change.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs. Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself, your child, your relationship, or your family, I am committed to helping you achieve your goals and develop the skills needed to thrive both now and in the future.
I provide in-person therapy in Montclair, New Jersey, as well as secure online therapy throughout New Jersey and Florida.
I offer a complimentary consultation and would welcome the opportunity to discuss how we can work together.

Tampa is a rapidly growing city with a significant military presence at MacDill AFB, creating sustained demand for therapists who specialize in military trauma, deployment-related adjustment, and the challenges of veteran and military family life. The city's growth has brought a large influx of transplants from the Northeast and Midwest, and therapists frequently address the adjustment, social isolation, and identity shifts common among people rebuilding their lives in a new city. Tampa General Hospital and AdventHealth serve as major institutional mental health anchors, with a growing private practice community concentrated in South Tampa, Hyde Park, and the New Tampa corridor. Many Tampa therapists now offer telehealth, making it easier to serve clients spread across Hillsborough and Pinellas counties.
