About Glenn
Glenn Naquin Jr is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. He brings a practical focus to sessions and aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.
Before counseling, he spent over 30 years working as a critical care paramedic and healthcare provider. That background shaped his sense of calm under pressure and his understanding of high-stress work and caregiver strain. He uses that experience to relate to people who face ongoing stress and burnout.
In sessions he adapts conversations and plans to what each person needs. He centers the person in the room and uses tools from client-centered therapy to listen closely and build trust. He also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and on motivational interviewing to support changes a person wants to make.
Glenn combines straightforward talk with goal-focused steps. He is comfortable discussing addiction, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and life transitions. He also works with concerns tied to adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric issues, cancer, and money stress among other topics.
Sessions can be conducted in English or Spanish. He works across a range of concerns that include first responder issues, veteran and armed forces matters, and multicultural challenges. Taking the first step is framed as a collaborative process to find what helps most for each person.
How his approaches shape online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's concerns. It emphasizes empathy, respect, and helping the person lead the conversation so goals come from their own priorities. This approach can help when someone needs support sorting through overwhelming feelings and deciding next steps.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to find patterns that make problems worse. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, and many habitual behaviors.
Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It uses open questions and reflective listening to resolve mixed feelings and strengthen commitment to practical goals like reducing substance use or improving self-care.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss what fits a person's needs, goals, and preferences and adjust methods as the relationship develops. That makes the process collaborative rather than prescriptive.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy life and fewer barriers to continuing care during disruptions. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to schedule regular check-ins, use brief phone or video conversations when needed, and maintain momentum between in-person commitments.
