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.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
My practice is grounded in one central idea: that family, in all of its forms, deserves to be understood, supported, and thoughtfully nurtured. I have the privilege of working with individuals, couples, and families at some of the most meaningful—and often most vulnerable—moments in their lives. Whether someone is building a family, navigating challenges within one, or redefining what family means to them, my goal is always to create a space that feels both safe and genuinely supportive.
A significant part of my work focuses on family building, including comprehensive evaluations for adoption, assisted reproduction, and other non-traditional pathways to parenthood. I have extensive experience working with adoptive parents, intended parents, and families formed through surrogacy, donation, and other modern family-building processes. These evaluations are not just procedural—they are an opportunity to reflect, prepare, and enter parenthood with clarity and confidence.
In addition to evaluation work, I provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families. I approach this work with warmth, directness, and deep respect for each person’s experience. Whether addressing relationship strain, life transitions, trauma, or the complexities of parenting, I aim to help people better understand themselves and each other, and to move forward with intention.
I have a particular passion for working with non-traditional families—those whose paths may fall outside of conventional expectations but are no less meaningful or deserving of support. My practice is inclusive, affirming, and grounded in the belief that there is no single “right” way to build or be a family.
Above all, I strive to offer a space where people feel seen, understood, and guided—not judged. This is deeply personal work, and I consider it an honor to be part of my clients’ journeys.
