About Alaina
Alaina Mount is an LPC licensed in Texas with 11 years of counseling experience. She focuses on parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, and self-esteem. Her tone is straightforward and practical, aimed at parents who need clear guidance during stressful times.
She keeps sessions direct and empathetic. Alaina listens first, then offers plain feedback and steps clients can try between meetings. She aims to build trust so people feel safe talking about hard topics without judgment.
Background and approach
Her background includes both independent practice and work in inpatient treatment centers. This variety informs her approach to common parenting struggles, grief, anger, and relationship challenges. She blends techniques to meet each person’s needs rather than using a single method for everyone.
Alaina draws from several evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, attachment-based ideas to improve connection, and client-centered skills that prioritize the person's goals. She uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy and emotionally-focused therapy when helpful. Sessions are offered in English and are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Cost varies by location and therapist availability and is billed through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, select the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How her approaches translate to online care
Alaina uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, which can reduce anxiety and improve daily parenting routines. She also uses attachment-based ideas to help people strengthen connection and repair strained relationships. These approaches are practical and translate well to online work because they focus on specific skills and real-life tasks.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will review goals and preferences during early sessions and suggest which methods to try first. Together they adjust the plan based on what helps most, mixing techniques when needed to match the situation.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face when that is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick reflections, coaching between sessions, and flexible communication around busy schedules. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into parenting demands and everyday life.
