Middle Path Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW, LPC, PLPC
We are committed allies to the LGBTQIA+ community and provide affirming, respectful therapy for individuals navigating identity, relationships, coming out, family dynamics, and the emotional impact of living in a world that is not always safe or understanding. We recognize the courage it takes to exist authentically, especially in environments where acceptance has not been guaranteed. Our role as therapists is to create a space where clients feel genuinely seen, respected, and supported without assumption, judgment, or the need to educate their therapist. We work alongside clients to process difficult experiences, strengthen self-trust, and build relationships and lives that reflect who they truly are. Our approach is grounded in humility, affirmation, and a deep commitment to honoring each person’s identity and lived experience.

Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
Much of my career has focused on supporting LGBTQIA people in any number of ways. Whether you're at a point where you're considering coming out, if you're exploring your sexual or gender identity, or need space to process the important relationships in your life, this can be a great space to do some work. Many LGBTQIA people have had to make compromises in their lives to fit into social norms that don't mirror queer realities, and doing so can leave a real impact. I love to help LGBTQIA people work toward becoming more fully themselves.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with individuals and couples across the LGBTQ+ spectrum, supporting a wide range of experiences related to identity, relationships, and family building. This can include exploring questions of identity and self-understanding, navigating coming out, managing family dynamics, and building affirming, meaningful relationships.
I have particular experience working with LGBTQ+ individuals and couples pursuing non-traditional paths to parenthood, including adoption, surrogacy, and donor conception. I understand both the unique stressors and the profound strengths that can come with these journeys.
My approach is affirming, nuanced, and grounded in deep respect for each person’s lived experience. I aim to create a space where clients feel fully seen and understood, while also helping them navigate challenges with clarity, confidence, and a strong sense of self.
