Alaina Glover, LPC - Therapist in Louisiana

About Alaina

Alaina Glover is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people navigate parenting and family concerns alongside other struggles. She speaks plainly and listens closely, so parents and caregivers can explain what's happening and feel heard. Her approach aims to build on each person s strengths while tackling the problems that feel overwhelming right now.

Alaina uses practical tools from evidence-based methods to address anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress.

Background and approach

She also offers support for grief, compassion fatigue, addiction issues, anger, and attention challenges. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with concrete skills to try between meetings. EMDR is part of her toolkit for processing traumatic memories.

She pairs that with cognitive behavioral strategies to spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are woven in when they fit the client s goals and readiness. Alaina brings 16 years of professional experience in Louisiana to her work.

She believes clients are the experts on their own lives and uses that perspective to shape each plan. The focus is practical progress rather than labels or long-winded explanations. For parents juggling daily demands, sessions aim to be straightforward and applicable.

The goal is clearer communication, better stress management, and more confidence in handling difficult moments. Small steps matter, and Alaina helps make them manageable.

How evidence-based approaches work online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. It is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and stressful daily patterns. EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a method used to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact; it can help people with trauma-related symptoms and intense reactions.

Finding the right method is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels manageable, and then try approaches that fit those needs. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted based on what helps most in real life.

Online work uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling more flexible. These formats let parents and caregivers fit sessions into busy days, follow up between meetings, and choose what feels most comfortable. Licensed professionals can teach the same CBT and EMDR-informed skills online and assign short practice tasks to use at home.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.

EMDR

A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
