About Alaina
Alaina Glover is a licensed counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 16 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people facing trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, and the everyday pressures of parenting and relationships. Her style is straightforward and supportive, aimed at helping clients take small, practical steps forward.
Alaina centers sessions on each person's story and strengths. She treats the client as the expert on their life and works alongside them to set realistic goals.
Background and approach
Conversations are direct but compassionate, and she helps people build skills they can use between sessions. Her work covers grief, compassion fatigue, anger, ADHD, panic, and many mood concerns. She also assists with attachment questions, communication and control issues, shame and guilt, and challenges around forgiveness and self-love.
Sessions may include strategies to manage impulses and mood swings as well as tools for clearer communication. Alaina uses a blend of methods to meet practical needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical skill work, EMDR for processing trauma, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to encourage change.
Those approaches are adapted to each person's situation and goals. People who choose her can expect a collaborative, steady process that emphasizes safety, skill-building, and measurable steps. She encourages clients to notice progress, even when it feels small, and to use therapy as a space to try new ways of coping.
Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care
Alaina commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR alongside mindfulness practices. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is a method used to process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity, often paired with careful pacing and grounding techniques. Mindfulness techniques teach simple breathing and attention skills to manage stress and impulse urges.Choosing the right approach is part of the work and is done together. The therapist will ask about your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Then she adapts methods to fit your needs and checks in regularly to refine the plan so it stays useful and manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls let you see and hear the therapist for a fuller conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text can be useful for brief check-ins, homework review, or when writing feels easier. These options help people keep therapy consistent around work, parenting, and daily life.
