Getting to know Zachary Zaret

As a queer-identified Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #150129), I provide LGBTQIA+ affirmative therapy that fosters self-acceptance, resilience, and meaningful change. My practice is a safe, inclusive space where individuals, couples, and families can explore identity, relationships, and mental health challenges with compassion and authenticity. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship concerns, and the intersection of chronic illness and mental health. My approach is trauma-informed, strength-based, and tailored to each client's unique experiences. With a background in the entertainment industry, I bring creativity and innovation to the therapeutic process, helping clients express themselves and navigate life's complexities. I hold a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Antioch University – Los Angeles and a Bachelor's degree from California State University Long Beach, which have equipped me with a strong foundation to support my clients effectively.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University, Los Angeles, with a specialization in LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Therapy. I am committed to ongoing education, advocacy, and providing culturally competent care that affirms all identities and lived experiences.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My work with clients is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs. In our first session, we’ll explore what brings you to therapy, your goals, and any concerns you may have. This is a space where you can share openly, at your own pace, without judgment. As we continue, sessions will focus on building insight, strengthening coping skills, and fostering personal growth. I use a trauma-informed, strength-based approach that integrates elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and narrative therapy. For those navigating identity, relationships, or mental health challenges, I provide LGBTQIA+ affirmative care that ensures you feel seen and supported. Therapy is a journey, and my goal is to empower you with the tools and confidence to navigate life’s challenges with resilience and self-compassion. Whether you need short-term support or long-term exploration, I’m here to guide you in a way that feels right for you.
