Glenn Naquin Jr, LPC

Glenn Naquin Jr is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. He brings a direct and respectful approach to conversations about change and coping. Glenn draws on years of healthcare experience to support practical problem solving and steady progress.

He adapts discussions and plans to each person’s situation. Sessions focus on concrete steps people can try between meetings. Glenn aims to build motivation, reduce unhelpful thoughts, and strengthen everyday coping skills.

Before counseling, Glenn spent more than 30 years working as a critical care paramedic and healthcare provider. That background informs how he listens for immediate needs and practical barriers to change. He combines that experience with about 10 years providing mental health support as a counselor.

His work often addresses life stressors tied to caregiving, medical challenges, addiction, and job-related strain. He also supports people dealing with grief, guilt, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose. Glenn works with multicultural concerns and issues that affect veterans and first responders.

Conversations can be in English or Spanish. Glenn asks people to describe their goals and then tailors a plan using straightforward methods such as talking through problems, setting small goals, and adjusting strategies as progress is made.

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's perspective, helping people feel heard and guiding conversations toward their own priorities. It suits someone who wants a counselor who follows their lead and adapts to their pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thoughts and actions that keep problems going and teaches small, practical skills to change them. It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and problems with motivation or self-esteem.

Motivational Interviewing uses gentle questioning to strengthen a person’s own reasons for change and to build readiness. It can help when someone feels stuck or unsure about taking steps forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjust plans as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, offer a quieter option when needed, or allow a shorter check-in during work breaks. Licensed professionals can use these formats to focus on skill practice, goal setting, and tracking changes over time.
