About Alaina
Alaina Glover is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with 16 years of experience. She focuses on practical help for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and parenting concerns. Alaina speaks plain, direct language and centers the client's own knowledge and strengths in each session.
She approaches work with compassion and clarity. Sessions often begin by naming what feels most urgent and breaking that down into small, achievable steps.
Background and approach
Alaina uses skills-based tools to manage strong feelings, improve focus, and reduce crisis moments over time. Her practice includes techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to change unhelpful thinking and increase calm. She also uses strategies from dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
For trauma-related concerns she integrates eye movement desensitization and reprocessing when appropriate. Alaina supports people dealing with relationship strain, parenting stress, addiction, anger, and issues around shame or self-worth. She helps people learn communication skills, improve attachment patterns, and set healthier boundaries.
Sessions are collaborative and respect each person as the expert of their life. Parents who feel overwhelmed or stuck often find practical, step-by-step plans useful. Alaina helps clients weigh options, try new strategies between sessions, and track small changes that add up.
Her goal is to make therapy understandable and usable for everyday life.

How specific approaches translate to online care
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. Online sessions can use worksheets, thought records, and brief behavioral homework to reduce anxiety and depressive patterns.Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches practical coping skills like distress tolerance and emotion regulation. In remote sessions this often looks like skill-building conversations, role practice, and step-by-step plans to manage strong emotions or impulsive behavior.
EMDR is an approach used for processing traumatic memories by combining focused recall with bilateral stimulation. When appropriate, elements of this work can be adapted to online formats with guided procedures and careful pacing to help lessen trauma-related reactions.
Picking the right method is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try approaches collaboratively and adjust as needed.
Online therapy with this clinician uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for interactive skill work and longer conversations. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, short reflections, or keeping progress between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue work when in-person visits are hard to arrange.
