About Alaina
Alaina Mount is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, and phobias. She also supports those dealing with life changes, parenting strain, career concerns, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Her style is direct but warm, with honest feedback and steady empathy.
She adapts her approach to each person. Sessions focus on practical skills and real-life steps people can use between meetings.
Background and approach
Alaina aims to create a trusting space where difficult topics can be talked through without judgment. Alaina draws from several well-known therapy methods to match what each person needs. She commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to pinpoint unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
She also uses attachment-based ideas and emotion-focused work to strengthen how people relate to themselves and others. Her background includes work in independent practice and inpatient treatment settings over more than a decade. That experience shaped her ability to work with both everyday challenges and more intense emotional crises.
The LPC credential shows her licensure in Texas. Sessions tend to mix practical skills, exploration of emotions, and honest conversation about patterns that get in the way. People who want clear tools and a collaborative, respectful therapist will find her approach straightforward and focused on change.
To start, she asks people to share what they hope to change so together they can set realistic goals and steps forward.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work looks at how early connections shape current ways of relating. Online sessions using attachment ideas focus on naming patterns in relationships and practicing new ways of responding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot and change thought and behavior patterns that worsen anxiety and depression. In an online session CBT often includes homework and simple exercises to try between meetings.Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. The therapist will listen to goals, try a method, and adjust based on what helps most. That collaborative process helps match strategies to a person’s day-to-day needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video sessions work well for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a brief check-in. Live chat and text messaging let people check in quickly, work through small moments, or receive ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent despite busy lives.
