About Alaina
Alaina Glover is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 16 years of experience. She meets people where they are and helps them take the next step. Her tone is straightforward and encouraging for someone who may be nervous about starting therapy.
She works with adults facing issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and ADHD. She also helps people dealing with trauma and abuse, relationship or family tension, and struggles with self-esteem.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical changes and building on each person's strengths. Her approach mixes talk-based strategies and hands-on tools. She uses methods like cognitive behavioral exercises to change unhelpful thinking, dialectical skills to manage intense emotions, and mindfulness techniques to increase present-moment awareness.
EMDR is also part of her toolkit for processing traumatic memories when appropriate. Alaina believes the client is the expert in their own life. She aims to be a steady guide who offers clear techniques, real-world practice, and compassionate feedback.
Progress is paced to each person's needs and comfort. She offers sessions in English and works from Louisiana. Starting therapy is framed as a step-by-step process, and she helps people set simple goals they can build on over time.
Therapeutic approaches and online options
Alaina uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication for people who feel overwhelmed by intense feelings. When trauma is a focus, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) may be used to process painful memories and reduce their hold on daily life.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods as progress unfolds. Clients help set the pace and decide which tools feel most useful for their situation.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more accessible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter updates, brief skills practice, or for people who prefer typed communication. These options help fit therapy into work, family, and daily routines while keeping focus on the therapeutic work.
