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.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I have been a therapist for over 10 years and running my own company for the last 2. I use a combination of Biblical therapy as well as CBT. I truly care for my clients and desire them to have a more joyful life free of anxiety and depression. I have worked with many individuals, families, and marriages and have seen growth and freedom from stress achieved. I have seen marriages put back together and families and individuals before stronger. I also host a podcast with my wife and we cover topics such as marriage, narcissism, relationships, etc.
