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.

If getting away from it all, in some way or another, didn’t get you away from your self, psychoanalysis might enhance — or even be — your life-changing endeavor.

Dr. Lois Horowitz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Ph.D., LCSW
As an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, I provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space for individuals of all identities and orientations. I understand how personal and sometimes complicated the journey of self-discovery can be—especially when it comes to navigating gender identity, sexual orientation, and the coming out process.
Many LGBTQ+ individuals grow up in environments where their identities may not have been fully accepted, understood, or affirmed. This can lead to feelings of shame, anxiety, isolation, or internal conflict. It can also make typical developmental milestones—like forming relationships, building self-esteem, or setting boundaries—feel even more challenging.
In our work together, I honor the unique experiences that shape you. Whether you’re exploring your identity, facing challenges related to coming out, navigating family dynamics, or simply wanting to feel more at home in yourself, therapy can offer a meaningful path forward.
We’ll move at your pace, uncover the patterns that may be holding you back, and build tools for resilience, connection, and self-acceptance. You deserve to live a life where you feel seen, understood, and supported just as you are.

Dr. Kristen Roman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have worked with many clients within the LGBTQ+ population, whether to address something else they're dealing with (e.g., OCD, depression), or to work through particular concerns related to identity. I aim to create a safe, affirming space where you feel comfortable exploring aspects of your identity.
