Bryant Lemus, LCSW-C, is a first-generation American of Salvadoran descent, serving as a son, father, uncle, and friend. As the eldest of five siblings, he resides in Montgomery County, MD, with his wife and two children. At the age of 15, Bryant developed a passion for helping others, which he discovered while working at the YMCA Youth & Family Services, where he found his calling in social work. He recognized the underrepresentation of men in the field, despite the universal importance of mental health. Driven by his passion, Bryant gained knowledge of legal matters while interning for state Delegate Joseline-Peña Melnyk. Following this experience, he pursued a Master’s degree in Social Work at the University of Maryland, Baltimore, graduating in May 2019. Since then, Bryant has cultivated a well-rounded clinical background, working across state, for-profit, and non-profit sectors. Over time, he observed a significant need for male clinicians, which inspired him to establish Lemus Psychotherapy LLC, a practice designed for men, by men. In his leisure time, Bryant enjoys exercising with his long-time friend and coach, reading with his children, traveling, and cooking with his wife, with pupusas being his favorite Salvadoran dish.
