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.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
I specialize in working with clients from the ages of 14 to adulthood, who are inquisitive, self-aware, and deeply motivated to understand themselves better, improve their relationships, move into a place of self-respect/love, and develop adaptive ways of coping, communicating, and problem-solving. I have worked for many years with children, teens, adults, and families dealing with trauma and change and searching for authenticity, often in a world that values the superficial. Therapy is a process of seeking meaning, managing change, letting go of what no longer makes sense for who we are and what we want, healing, and growing.
I am most suited to help clients dealing with loss, prior childhood trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, identity (in all its manifestations), divorce, self-esteem, grief, and emotional regulation. The goals are different for everyone, yet I believe that we all want to feel more balanced, more joyful, and more healthfully connected with others.
As a psychologist with 25 years of post-doctoral experience, I’ve been exposed to various modalities, settings, and clients dealing with differing issues, life changes, and developmental expectations. I’ve also found that my professional practice has evolved as I’ve matured, raised children, and survived losses and challenges. We are in this together.
