About Alaina

Alaina Mount is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression, grief, parenting pressures, and anger. She also supports those facing career stress, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and LGBT-related concerns.

Her approach mixes clear feedback with a supportive presence. She leans on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while drawing from Attachment-Based, Emotionally-Focused, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy methods as needed. In sessions she offers straightforward conversation, practical skills, and direct guidance rather than vague platitudes.

Alaina has worked in both private practice and inpatient treatment settings. That background means she is familiar with short-term goals and longer-term work, and she can shift between teaching skills and talking through relationship patterns. She explains ideas plainly and gives concrete tools to try between sessions.

When anger is present she focuses on understanding where it comes from and on usable strategies to reduce snapping, resentment, or workplace frustration. She helps people notice patterns, practice calming techniques, and change reactions that cause problems with others.

People who prefer a clear, task-focused style often find her practical. She invites questions and prefers collaborative planning so clients know what to expect from each meeting. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Alaina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT tends to focus on practical exercises and short-term strategies for problems like anxiety, anger, and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationship patterns shape current reactions, useful when anger links to fear of abandonment or mistrust.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and suggest options. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing meetings during breaks or from different locations. It also lets people practice skills during real-world situations and bring specific moments into discussion without needing an in-person visit.
