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.

Gabrielle Bowen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, MSW
I have experience with a wide variety of clients, and I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, mood regulation, and substance use. I've been told I have a very down-to-earth and caring personality as a psychotherapist, which helps clients feel more comfortable sharing details about their lives and experiences. Acceptance, empathy, and nonjudgement are qualities I want to convey throughout therapy. It is my goal for people to feel heard and understood, and in that space lies so much hope for the future.

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 both Florida and Alabama. 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.

Amber, Lee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed, MFT-I
I care deeply about my clients and the issues they face. I understand how difficult it can be to make changes in your relationships because I have had to do some work in my own relationships as well. My theoretical approach stems from family systems models, but I also use a person centered ideology and believe that every client needs to feel unconditional positive regard from their therapist in order to make those changes. I offer a safe space to clients that they can be open and honest without fear of judgement. I meet my clients where they are, so if there are some issues they just aren't ready to address, that is perfectly okay. I want my clients to know what a healthy, functioning relationship looks like, and I want the therapeutic relationship between us to help model that whenever possible.

Christina Webb
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, NCC
I believe therapy can help us overcome the obstacles that keep us stuck in the past and unable to embrace a life worth living. At times we all feel lost or overwhelmed by changes in our lives. Life was not delivered with a book of instructions, and it can be challenging, disappointing, stressful, and even lonely at times. Each of us must make sense of our world. When things don't make sense we experience anxiety, depression, anger, confusion, stress, or other difficulties. My goal is to help each individual or couple become more effective at dealing with and developing coping skills so they can better manage their own unique life situation. Each person is unique; therefore, we will work together to craft a specific plan designed for your needs.
