My name is Ezak and my pronouns are they, them, theirs. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Gender Specialist at Magic Within Therapy. I show up as a queer, nonbinary, Puerto Rican/Mexican therapist who leads with humor, heart, and a deep commitment to justice. In our work together, we’ll name the bullshit (capitalism, patriarchy, white supremacy, transphobia… all of it), while also making space for softness, laughter, and the magic of being fully yourself.
I specialize in working with the LGBTQ community with a focus on transgender and nonbinary folks to address issues including gender dysphoria, identity exploration, anxiety, and depression. I draw from a person-centered, strengths-based, and trauma-informed lens. I don’t see you as a diagnosis; I see you as a whole person with wisdom and resilience.
I work with adolescents and adults, holding space for both exploration and action. Whether you’re just beginning your journey of self-discovery or deep in the work of unlearning oppressive narratives, you don’t have to do it alone. Together, we’ll co-create a space that feels safe to bring your full self, with complexities, contradictions, and brilliance.
