Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I provide affirming, trauma-informed therapy for adults navigating LGBTQ+ identity, coming out, minority stress, relationship dynamics, and societal pressures. I focus on creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their identity, experiences, and relationships without needing to educate their therapist.
I offer queer therapy and trans-affirming care, integrating attachment-based, somatic, and parts-informed approaches to help clients process emotions, regulate stress, and strengthen self-understanding. Therapy emphasizes self-compassion, resilience, and empowerment, supporting clients in building authentic connections with themselves and others while navigating the unique challenges of LGBTQ+ life.

Ricardo Despradel
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC,LPC
As a gay cis-male Latino therapist, my commitment to LGBTQIA+-affirming care is both personal and clinical. I understand that identity including sexual orientation, gender identity, race, and culture doesn't exist in a vacuum separate from mental health. The effects of minority stress, discrimination, family rejection, and systemic barriers are real, and they shape the way people experience anxiety, OCD, and disordered eating in ways that a culturally unaware therapist can miss. I strive to create a space where LGBTQIA+ individuals and people from historically marginalized communities can show up fully, without having to educate their therapist or shrink themselves to be understood. My goal is affirming care that is also genuinely effective where identity is respected and evidence-based treatment still leads the way.
