Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
I am a trauma‑informed therapist with advanced training in sexology who helps adults heal how trauma, culture, and identity shape their relationships, bodies, and sex lives. I work especially well with clients who “hold it all together” for everyone else while feeling anxious, shut down, or disconnected inside. In our work, we make room for the parts of you that have had to stay small or silent around desire, boundaries, faith, family, or reproductive experiences so you can move from survival mode toward more safety, choice, and aliveness in your own life.

Dr. Weston Donaldson
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
As an LGBTQ+ person, you've probably gotten pretty good at figuring things out for yourself. But then life throws you a curveball you can't simply think your way through, problem-solve your way out of, or grit your teeth and muscle through forever.
Maybe you're grieving someone you lost - or something that others don't even recognize as a loss. Maybe your relationship has changed, your health isn't what it used to be, or you're caring for someone you love and wondering how much longer you can keep going. You may be functioning just fine on the outside, while feeling pretty damn exhausted on the inside.
I'm Dr. Weston Donaldson, a gay psychologist and founder of Proud Heart Therapy Services, LLC. I help LGBTQ+ adults coping with grief, loss, trauma, and complicated transitions that come with getting older. Being part of the queer community means I bring a familiarity with our relationships, chosen families, histories, and experiences that can make these challenges more complex. You shouldn't have to spend your therapy sessions explaining why your relationships matter or why a particular loss has hit you so hard.
For me, the magic sauce of therapy is relationship. You can bring the messy feelings, the contradictions, the things you're not sure you're supposed to say out loud. My job isn't to tell you how you should feel or hand you a generic set of coping skills. It's to help you understand what's happening, reconnect with your own wisdom, and figure out what you want your life to look from here on out.
You don't have to stop grieving, have everything figured out, or know exactly what you need before reaching out. If you're tired of going through this time alone, let's talk. I'd be glad to hear what's going on and see whether we're a good fit.

Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
If you have been carrying a lot on your own, therapy can be a place to slow things down, get clear about what is happening, and start moving forward in a way that feels real and meaningful. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience, and my work has included clinical practice, teaching, and published scholarship on trauma, grief, and life transitions. I bring that depth into sessions in a practical, down-to-earth way, blending evidence-based tools with thoughtful work around meaning, patterns, and direction. If you are facing stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, or a major life change and want support that is skilled and personal, I would be glad to connect.
