Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
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.

Jerrod Johnson
Psychologist, PsyD
In therapy, we make space for difficult thoughts and emotions rather than fighting them so they have less control over your life. I draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help people, including those from LGBTQ+ communities, reconnect with their values and move toward a more meaningful, authentic life.

Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
I provide affirming, inclusive care for LGBTQ+ individuals navigating identity, relationships, family dynamics, and societal stressors. My approach recognizes the impact of systemic oppression while also supporting personal growth, self-acceptance, and connection. Therapy is a space where all parts of you are welcome and understood.

Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
Much of my career has focused on supporting LGBTQIA people in any number of ways. Whether you're at a point where you're considering coming out, if you're exploring your sexual or gender identity, or need space to process the important relationships in your life, this can be a great space to do some work. Many LGBTQIA people have had to make compromises in their lives to fit into social norms that don't mirror queer realities, and doing so can leave a real impact. I love to help LGBTQIA people work toward becoming more fully themselves.

Amanda Ezell
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (AL & GA), LMHC (FL), NCC, BC-TMH
LGBTQIA+ clients deserve therapy where their identities are understood as part of who they are, not automatically treated as a clinical problem. I provide affirming care for adults exploring identity, navigating relationships, coping with minority stress, managing family or social concerns, or addressing mental health concerns completely unrelated to their identity. You should not have to spend your therapy session teaching your therapist how to understand you.
