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.

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.

Together we view your LGBTQIA+ identity as a vital expression of your soul's desire for wholeness. Stepping into your true self is a courageous act of individuation. Our Jungian work honors this journey, helping you integrate all aspects of your being for a life of purpose and self-acceptance. Your experience holds a unique spiritual potency—reflecting the sacred archetypal role of the bridge-builder—revealing a deeper, fluid truth about the human spirit. We transform challenges into creative and spiritual insight, celebrating your true Self. Embracing your full identity is a profound spiritual act. We provide a supportive space to navigate the interplay between personal truth and the collective shadow, fostering deep inner harmony and celebrating your divine uniqueness.

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.
