LGBTQ+ Issues
Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I specialize in providing affirming and inclusive care for LGBTQ+ individuals, including autistic and other neurodivergent clients. My approach emphasizes adapting therapeutic strategies to meet the unique needs of each individual while fostering a supportive and validating environment. I have experience advocating for and facilitating access to gender-affirming care, including providing letters of support for gender-affirming medical treatments.
In my work with LGBTQ+ youth, I prioritize family collaboration and use evidence-based practices, including the Family Acceptance Project’s family model, to strengthen relationships and promote mental health and well-being. I also provide guidance around gender identity exploration, helping clients navigate transitions and develop self-acceptance. My goal is to empower individuals and families by offering compassionate, identity-affirming care grounded in respect, understanding, and advocacy.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When bias and discrimination are part of a person's problems, I show them how not to anger themselves and then how to address the prejudice and discrimination constructively. In cases where people are shameful about their sexuality, I teach them how to unconditionally accept themselves and never to shame themselves for who they are and what they like both sexually and non-sexually.

Brielle Layden
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
It is my sincere belief that everyone is entitled to a safe, supportive space. Many of my clients are transgender, gender non-conforming and nonbinary, and LGBQ+ identified adult individuals. I work with my clients to understand and explore how their presenting problems (ie anxiety, depression, self image) are influenced by gender identity and sexuality.
