Depression
Dr. Israel Martinez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST, PhD
My therapy services are designed to address the unique emotional and psychological challenges that gay men often face. Growing up and living in systems that stigmatize and marginalize us can lead to anxiety, depression, trauma, shame, and isolation. I offer a safe, affirming space where you can explore these experiences, find healing, and build resilience.
Anxiety, Depression, and Trauma
Gay men experience higher rates of depression, often rooted in rejection, discrimination, and past trauma. Together, we’ll identify the sources of distress and use evidence-based strategies to reduce symptoms, improve mood, and restore balance. For those healing from trauma or PTSD, therapy offers a supportive environment to process painful memories and regain a sense of safety and control.
Building Confidence
Stigma and chronic stress can undermine self-worth. My approach focuses on strengthening self-esteem, developing healthy coping tools, and helping you cultivate self-compassion and confidence.
My Approach
I use a client-centered, affirming approach that validates your experiences while empowering you to grow. With years of experience working with gay men’s mental health, I integrate proven therapeutic methods to support you in creating lasting change and living more fully and authentically.

Depression
Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Depression is more than “feeling sad”; it can show up as exhaustion, numbness, irritability, or feeling disconnected from your life. In therapy, we explore the story behind your symptoms, build small, doable steps toward relief, and reconnect you with meaning, support, and a kinder inner voice.

Many IPG therapists work with various forms of depression. While we do not have psychiatrists or medical doctors on staff and cannot prescribe medication, we often collaborate with providers who do.

Dr. Mike Abrams
Psychologist, PhD, MBA, ABPP
I have researched and treated depressive disorders in people in all stages and walks of life. I have researched depression, taught it at the graduate level and cover its treatment in my books. I understand the profound suffering it inflicts on those suffering with it and I usually can help quite a bit. If you want more detail, contact me and I will send you a chapter from one of my textbooks that covers the basis and treatment of depression.
