Jazmin Melendez
Pre-Licensed Professional, LMSW
As a queer therapist and member of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand the importance of having a space where you can explore identity, relationships, family, belonging, or other life experiences without having to explain or defend who you are. My approach is affirming, culturally responsive, and judgment-free. Therapy can be a place to explore what matters to you while building greater self-understanding and living more authentically.

Identifying as LGBT can have unfortunate negative implications. We will help you understand how your family of origin, religion and other stressors may have caused you harm. We will help you embrace your true identity with support from professionals who know this from the inside-out.

Bryan Leach
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The LGBTQ+ community has a long history of navigating and overcoming adversity, including systemic oppression, stigma, discrimination, and violence. I have experience supporting clients across a spectrum of gender identities and sexual orientations as they seek to build fulfilling lives in which they live authentically as themselves. Challenges faced by this population may include combatting internalized oppression, exploring sexuality / gender identity, finding belonging and sense of community, coming out, reevaluating relationships with substances, and experimenting with non-traditional relationship structures.

Zaray Dratch
Pre-Licensed Professional, MFT-LP
Finding a therapist who doesn't need you to explain yourself from the beginning makes a difference. For LGBTQ+ clients, too many therapy experiences start with education, having to define terms, justify your relationship structure, or convince your therapist that your life is valid. That's not what happens here.
Whether you're navigating coming out, relationship dynamics that don't fit a traditional mold, family rejection, identity, or the particular kind of stress that comes from living in a world that still requires you to fight for basic dignity, this is a space that starts from affirmation and moves forward from there. No explaining, no justifying, no shrinking.
Relationship issues within LGBTQ+ partnerships carry their own specific weight. Communication, intimacy, trust, and commitment look different when you're also managing external pressure, internalized stigma, or the absence of relationship models that actually reflect your life. All of that is welcome here.
