Let’s be friends

Everyone wants to help you be the best version of yourself. I find that valuable.

Everyone here is so loving and accepting and it ha made me feel so much safer in my identity.

Zebra Youth took me off the street and gave me an opportunity.

My therapy sessions have been helpful with my personal growth.

The staff were very helpful and genuinely care about you.

Counseling makes me feel less alone. Knowing that I am in a safe space provided by professionals makes me feel more understood and grounded in my own life that any interaction with another human being ever has before.

It was really helpful that I knew it was a safe space for LGBT+ and marginalized folks. I wouldn't have felt safe enough to talk about a lot of these topics with many therapists.

Counseling has helped me become a better person to myself and others around me. It has helped me by giving me skills that help with my anxiety.
