Gregory Smith
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), BCPC
For the past 21 years, I have been helping people discover the origins of their problems, and to heal from the resulting brokenness. Very often the brokeness began long before the symptoms and life struggles manifested. For individuals who have had adverse experiences that required dissociation to survive their traumas, finding the right therapist is not easy. My many years of working with traumatized individuals as a Pastoral Counselor combined with my clinical training has enabled me to help many heal and fully recover from their PTSD and dissociation. I provide a non judgmental approach to help people heal and recover so that they can live productive lives. My pastoral experience and Christian training enables me to help the whole person.

Cindy Yu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Cindy Yu is a bilingual (English and Mandarin Chinese) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of Florida, Alabama, and Illinois. She is well-trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, solution-focused therapy, Bowen’s theory, Gottman Method, CBT, and more. Cindy believes that each client is comprised of unique yet charismatic components such as personal upbringings, religious beliefs, and cultural backgrounds, that all contribute to narrate a cohesive personal story. This fundamental ideology has cultivated her into offering her clients unconditional positive regard and respect, while tailoring her treatment orientations to better serve each client’s individuality. Her passion is to help individuals, couples, and families to understand the misunderstood, to discover hope from the hopelessness, to speak the unspoken, and to seek possibilities through the impossible. Cindy also has a background in the medical field where she has obtained a strong foundational knowledge for medical diagnosis and medications. She understands the intricacy between medical burden and mental health.

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.

Dr. Hina Siddiqui; Insights Psychology
Psychologist, PsyD, ABPP, LP
Feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or stuck can make it hard to move forward—but meaningful change is possible. My goal is to help you gain clarity, reconnect with your strengths, and develop practical tools so you can approach life’s challenges with greater confidence and direction. Therapy is a collaborative process, and together we focus on what’s getting in your way while building skills that support lasting growth and a more satisfying present.
My work is grounded in a strengths-based, evidence-informed approach that emphasizes insight, action, and measurable progress. I help clients identify patterns that no longer serve them and replace them with healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and responding. Clients often appreciate that treatment is focused, intentional, and designed to create real-world change rather than remaining abstract or open-ended.
Cultural awareness and inclusivity are core values of my practice. I have experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and am committed to providing care that is respectful, affirming, and responsive to each client’s unique context. Above all, I prioritize creating a safe, supportive environment where you feel understood and empowered—because a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation for meaningful and effective change.

Montgomery is Alabama's state capital and a city with profound civil rights significance — the birthplace of the bus boycott, home to the Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church, and site of the National Memorial for Peace and Justice — and this history creates a distinctive clinical context in which racial identity, community trauma, and intergenerational resilience are active themes. The city has a majority Black population and a state government workforce, generating therapy demand that spans from the particular stresses of public service careers to the cultural and emotional dimensions of living in a place where the history of racism is physically present. Baptist Health and Jackson Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community. Alabama State University and Faulkner University contribute to the local training ecosystem, and the city's strong faith community means spiritually integrated therapy is an important part of the local offering.
