LGBT therapists in West Palm Beach, FL

Ashlee Lucarevski is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Boca Raton, Florida. She attained her Masters in Social Work from Florida Atlantic University, along with a certification in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Ashlee is also a doctoral candidate, who is currently working towards her Ph.d. in Clinical Sexology with a specialty in addictions. She is most skilled addressing issues related to anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, mood disorders, and substance abuse. Additionally she has a passion for helping the LGBT community and families manage the challenges that are often particular to this community such as: identity, self esteem issues, relationships challenges, fertility/adoption and family planning, as well as secondary issues that arise as a result of trauma. Ashlee is experienced in addressing challenges of both children and teens along with adults, by combining different theoretical perspectives in an attempt to aid individuals with gaining a deeper understanding of themselves.

Ashlee believes that the therapeutic process is one that is collaborative and recognizes the importance of a client's individuality. Therefore, while she utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing Techniques to encourage change she also realizes that there is not a one size fits all approach. Ashlee is both committed and dedicated to helping others achieve the change that they desire.

Sometimes the way you learned to cope is no longer helping you live the life you want. You may turn to substances when emotions become overwhelming, find yourself reacting with anger you later regret, or feel trapped between anxiety, depression, and painful experiences from your past. These struggles can begin affecting your relationships, family, confidence, and ability to recognize yourself. I provide virtual individual and family therapy in English and Spanish for adolescents, adults, and seniors throughout Florida, with a focus on substance use and addiction, anxiety, depression, anger management, and trauma. I also support clients navigating family and relationship issues, PTSD, grief and loss, stress, major life transitions, women’s issues, maternal mental health, identity concerns, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, and eating disorders when these challenges intersect with the primary reasons they seek therapy. My goal is to help you understand what is keeping you stuck, reconnect with your strengths, and develop healthier ways to move forward.

With over 30 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families, I specialize in supporting people navigating LGBTQ+ identity, relationships, and the coming out process. Whether you're stepping into your identity for the first time, rebuilding after a difficult transition, or managing the stress and relationship challenges that come with trying to balance everything, you deserve a therapist who truly gets it. I bring warmth, directness, and a genuine investment in helping you feel more like yourself.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who provides a sophisticated intellectual partnership for adults who feel internally chaotic despite external high-performance. My approach is designed for the intellectually curious—the high-achiever navigating "fraud" syndrome, complex trauma, or intense emotional volatility. I offer a high-fidelity space where we move beyond standard therapeutic scripts to name the underlying patterns you have been living in but could not quite see.
