Navigating LGBTQ issues requires a therapist who understands the unique challenges and beauty of living authentically.

My approach is affirming, somatic, and culturally sensitive—offering a space where every part of you is welcome, from celebration to struggle. Together, we’ll honor your lived experience, untangle internalized shame, and help you step more confidently into your true self.

LGBTQ+ Issues
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.
