About Alfred
Dr. Alfred White, Jr. brings 26 years of counseling experience to his practice. He helps people sort through everyday life challenges and aims to guide them toward a life that feels more fulfilling.
Dr. White uses straightforward conversation to identify what a person wants in their life and what gets in the way of reaching those goals. He introduces practical questions that prompt reflection, and he offers feedback and encouragement along the way.
Background and approach
Clients meet a therapist who frames sessions as collaborative consultations. Dr. White describes his role as a life consultant who asks questions that help people notice patterns and clarify values.
Together they map out obstacles and work toward realistic steps that move someone closer to their preferred lifestyle. His work covers common life areas such as work, school, neighborhoods, and community relationships. He welcomes discussions about identity, purpose, spirituality, and career as part of those consultations.
Conversations often focus on where a person is now and what small changes could make life more aligned with their ideals. Dr. White earned a Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of New Orleans in 1994 and a Doctorate in Counseling in 1999.
He holds the Licensed Professional Counselor credential and the Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential - LPC and LMHC - and is based in Louisiana. Sessions emphasize clear questions, steady feedback, and practical next steps. The tone is respectful and direct, with an aim toward helping people build momentum and confidence as they pursue meaningful change.
Therapeutic approaches for online life consultation
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client leads the conversation. It helps people clarify their values and make choices that feel authentic. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and behavior changes. Existential Therapy examines questions about meaning, purpose, and identity and can help when someone faces life transitions or doubts about direction.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try different tools and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit consultation into busy schedules and to continue work between meetings. Licensed professionals can use these options to support steady progress while accommodating different routines and access needs.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
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.
Existential Therapy
Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
