Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
My goal as a therapist is to create a safe non-judgemental space for all clients, especially clients who may not click with other therapists such as LGBTQ+, gender diverse, polyamorous or non-monogamous, and kink practicing clients. During our sessions you can be your true self. You don't have to mask with me or hide things about you that you think are weird or unlikeable. Ideally I can help you learn to like those aspects of yourself. You never have to hide important parts of your identity with me because I will never judge you for any reason.

Váthos Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, ALC, NCC, MA
Váthos Counseling – Therapy for Individuals, Adolescents, and Families in Birmingham
I am passionate about helping adults heal from the lasting impact of childhood trauma, parental loss, narcissistic abuse, and the complexities of codependency, especially where it affects self-worth and relationships.
I offer specialized adolescent counseling to support teens navigating identity formation, self-discovery, and emotional regulation. My goal is to help young people build a strong sense of self, increase resilience, and develop healthy coping strategies.
I also work with families affected by generational trauma and enmeshed dynamics, guiding them to break free from dysfunctional patterns and create more authentic, connected relationships.
Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your teen, or your family, I provide a compassionate space where healing and transformation can begin.

Fernanda Cutrone Krumm, LPC/LCPC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (AL), LCPC (IL), LMHC (FL)
Life can be messy, confusing, and intense. You might be navigating anxiety, ADHD, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, addiction, or just trying to figure out how to feel more like yourself.
Maybe you’ve been stuck in old patterns, overwhelmed by responsibilities, or unsure how to respond to the challenges in your life. Whatever your story, therapy can help you move forward with more clarity, balance, and confidence.
My work isn’t about blaming the past or staying stuck in old stories. It’s about understanding how your mind, body, and emotions all interact — and helping you respond to life in ways that feel more manageable, authentic, and aligned with who you want to be. In our sessions, we talk about everything: thoughts, habits, relationships, emotional patterns, and how your body experiences life. It’s a space to slow down, get real, and see yourself more clearly.
Together, we develop practical strategies and insights that help you manage overwhelm, navigate challenges, and make decisions that truly support your life. We curse, we cry, we laugh — and we work toward letting go of what no longer serves you while building the skills to thrive. Growth happens when we change how we think, believe, and act, and I am here to guide you through that process.
I offer telehealth sessions in Alabama and Illinois, so you can work with me wherever you feel safe and ready to do the work. My approach is grounded, real, and adaptable — for anyone looking to feel more capable, connected, and alive in their own life.
