Evone Zander

I create a warm, empathetic space where we tap into your inherent strengths to build a fulfilling life. Through our collaborative work, you'll feel more connected and grounded in who you are, develop practical skills to manage life's challenges, deepen meaningful relationships, and move confidently toward what truly matters to you.

Together, we will explore what truly matters to you, build skills to handle difficult emotions and experiences, and create meaningful change aligned with your values. We'll work with how your brain naturally functions, process past hurts that hold you back, and help you move forward with clarity and purpose—honoring your whole self throughout.

Clients describe me as warm and genuinely caring, someone who helps create real change. They value my practical approach that leads to meaningful progress, my ability to help them see things from new perspectives, and how I make them feel truly heard while supporting them to grow in ways that matter most.

I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ individuals, neurodivergent people, military members and veterans, and those from diverse racial and cultural backgrounds. I support healing from sexual assault, childhood and complex trauma, medical trauma, and loss after suicide. Your whole story and identity matter here—you'll find a safe space to heal and grow.

I became a therapist after years in queer advocacy and unhoused work, witnessing firsthand how trauma shapes lives and how transformative evidence-based therapy can be. I saw the profound need for affirming, effective care and experienced how the right support can truly change someone's path. I wanted to offer that kind of meaningful healing space to others.

HeartWork is a boutique clinic of psychologists and postdoctoral fellows whose practice incorporates a warm, open-hearted approach with evidence-based theory and skills. We include your strengths and what matters most to you!
