My name is Dr. Lentz and I have been practicing in the mental health field for over 10 years. I strive to help those acquire skills to overcome challenging situations that are tailored to a person's specific need. I am a goal oriented therapist that works diligently to achieve goals that are identified by the individual and myself. Life is full of situations that do not always have clear and definitive answers, which is a process the therapeutic approach I utilize can assist with.
My passion for helping others and giving back led me to a career that feels both meaningful and purposeful. My own personal experiences with trauma, anxiety, and depression give me a unique insight as a clinician — allowing me to show up for my clients with genuine empathy and understanding.
Hi my name is Ana, I'm a dedicated mental health professional specializing in comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment, strategic treatment planning, and collaborative care. Life can feel overwhelming at times, especially when you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, or major life transitions. You may be feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or simply wanting a safe space to process what you’ve been carrying. My goal is to provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change. Together, we can work toward helping you build resilience, improve emotional well-being, strengthen relationships, and reconnect with yourself.

Hi! I'm Olivia. I've been in therapy practice for six years, and am grateful for the opportunity to get to know you! As a queer and neurodivergent person, my career as a therapist has always moved in tandem with my commitment to social and economic justice. My work has taken me to settings with folks experiencing homelessness in South Los Angeles; with justice-involved adults in treatment court diversion programs in San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood; in young adult shelters for art therapy groups; with low-income immigrant parents of young children; and with teens and young adults with significant trauma histories.
Through all my roles I always commit to centering community and individual strengths that help arm my clients with the tools necessary to repel various types of systemic violence and oppression. I believe that therapy is inherently political because being human is political.
I have vast experience with a wide variety of clients. My professional history includes children living in abusive environments, teenagers who are struggling to access their education due to mental health concerns, families navigating dysfunction and adults dealing with a variety of life difficulties.
I currently work, primarily, in corrections with inmates struggling to adjust to the custody environment. I offer crisis intervention in addition to ongoing support.
I approach the therapeutic space with compassion and openness. I meet my clients right where they are emotionally and in their healing journey.

Hello! My approach is centered in the belief that authentic connection with ourselves and others heals.

I look forward to the opportunity to support you.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Glendale, CA
Searching for LGBTQIA therapists in Glendale starts with finding identity-affirming care that matches your needs. An LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist may support concerns related to identity, gender, sexual orientation, relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for signals like affirmative therapy, WPATH training, gender-diverse experience, or direct experience supporting LGBTQIA+ communities. Finding a therapist who offers this care matters beyond credentials — it can shape how clearly they understand your goals, context, and preferences.
Glendale offers access to local therapists, and nearby Los Angeles can broaden the search. Still, LGBTQIA+ affirming therapists may be more limited when you need a specific specialty, schedule, or insurance match. Virtual appointments can expand your options while keeping care accessible from home. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist offers a free phone consultation, and whether their background or lived experience matters to you. Reading therapist bios can help you see how they describe their approach, the communities they support, and what a first session may involve.
Therapy in Glendale can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find LGBTQIA+ affirming therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, many of whom are accepting new patients, and who offer upfront cost estimates before you book. You can browse therapists, review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
