Being true to yourself starts with self-acceptance. Unfortunately, in a world with discrimination, homophobia, transphobia, bullying, and rejection, sometimes it’s brutal and terrifying to do so. That is why many people struggling with issues related to their sexuality or gender identity often keep quiet. The fear of society, negative opinions, ignorance, and prejudice become an emotional burden that often leads tomental health issues such as depression or self-harm.
This is unacceptable, and OVC is here to support you all the way!

My main contact has been with Amanda M. and she has been amazing. She spent a half an hour going over options for different counselors and explaining the process. It was awesome to have someone willing to put in the time and effort to make things easier.
I have worked with Zev Berkowitz for the past 2 years and would highly recommend. Zev is inviting and easy to talk to but challenges you to work on yourself and the issues that you may be facing. We worked on couple’s therapy first and now i continue to use Zev as a personal therapist to work on my personal challenges. He is also very flexible with his schedule, and always available to talk or even text.
Working with Amanda has made finding a therapist so seamless! She has made the onboarding process so easy and is extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. She is also very responsive and gets back to you right away. This whole process can be daunting but with Amanda’s help it isn’t at all! Definitely recommend working with this practice as they have people like Amanda who are truly trying to help others.
Tara is a Gift from heaven! She is incredibly knowledgeable with regards to understanding and distinguishing a patient’s requirements. Since she has such a sympathetic and true interest in you, SHE Truly Tunes in! She goes past what common specialists or clinicians do, and consistently makes an opportunity to really focus on your needs.
I find this to be a better alternative to the popular virtual services out there. They take individual patient care seriously and they work with a lot of insurance.
I had frequent panic and anxiety attacks, which I didn’t believe would go away. However, I had no idea that Gabrielle’s six-week session would be so beneficial to me. I am grateful for his assistance and time, which really helped me with my anxiety problems.
I am having such a good experience with my therapist here. Much better than when I have tried therapy in the past. I have a really good therapist who has off the bat used an evidence based approach to help me dive deep into healing.
