Alena Porter

I welcome all LGBTQ+ clients and I practice LGBTQ affirmative therapy. I also provide gender exploration and affirmation therapy. I have treated many same sex clients over the years and many bisexual or pansexual clients who may practice polyamory or non-monogamy.

Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
With special attunement to providing support to LGBTQ+ individuals, I helppeople navigate challenges related to identity, coming out/letting in, relationships, and societal pressures. I support improving communication skills between family members with various belief systems fostering healthy relationships and developing coping strategies to enhance overall well-being. I offer a safe space where people can explore their feelings, choices, build self-acceptance, and address any concerns related to gender and sexual orientation. My approach includes using evidence-based therapies, such as CBT, to help manage issues like anxiety, depression, or discrimination that may arise. I specialize specifically with LGBTQ+ people from conservative backgrounds like conservative Muslims, Mormons, Christians, and many people from the Global South/Majority. Navigating these cultural dynamics adds a complexity that those from more progressive families and cultures may not understand.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
Finding a therapist who truly gets it can be hard—especially if you’ve spent too much time explaining or editing parts of yourself to feel safe. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I know how much it matters to have a space where you don’t have to explain your existence—just your goals.
I work with LGBTQ+ adults navigating identity exploration, relationships, chosen family, workplace dynamics, religious trauma, and the deep emotional toll of living in a world that too often questions your worth. Right now, the political climate is not just unsettling—it’s harmful, especially for trans and gender-diverse folks. You deserve a space where your identity is not only affirmed but protected. At The Momentum Practice, therapy is a place to exhale, reconnect, and move forward with more clarity and strength. I offer support for the full spectrum of your experience—from anxiety and perfectionism to workplace stress and burnout. When requested, I also provide letters for gender-affirming medical care, always with warmth, respect, and zero gatekeeping. With over 15 years of experience, I help clients move from self-doubt to self-trust, and from feeling stuck to feeling more aligned, empowered, and whole. You deserve a therapist who sees you, celebrates you, and journeys beside you. You matter—and I’m so glad you’re here. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

We will work together in a non-judgmental environment to address any anxiety, trauma, or identity-related concerns you may be facing. My practice is dedicated to helping you build the confidence to live openly and authentically, ensuring you have the support you deserve to thrive on your own terms."
