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.

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.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Sexual orientation and gender identity development are my areas of focus, and we use this space to make sure all intersecting identities (e.g., racial, religious, political, national) are considered as you find your authentic path in the world. This space is one where we can focus on your sexual orientation and/or gender identity development, or use these identities as a source of context to our work. In addition, I work with many trans*, non-binary, gender nonconforming, gender fluid, and other gender expansive folx as they embark on their path of congruence. In addition, I write letters of support for gender affirming surgeries/medical procedures.

Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Some LGBTQ+ clients come to therapy with concerns directly connected to their identities and experiences, while others want to address broader areas of their lives with a therapist to whom they don't need to explain their identity.
With LGBTQ+ clients, it can often be important to recognize the effects of stigma, discrimination, rejection, and social or political uncertainty while also recognizing sources of strength, including resilience, authenticity, pride, chosen family, friendship, and community.
