Glenn Naquin Jr, LPC

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, down-to-earth approach and aims to make the first step less overwhelming for someone reaching out for help.

He draws on ten years of counseling experience alongside more than 30 years working as a critical care paramedic and healthcare provider. That background shapes how he listens and responds when someone talks about burnout, emergency work strain, or coping after trauma. He focuses on what is useful now and what can change in everyday life.

Sessions are conversational and tailored to each person. He centers the conversation on the client’s goals, then uses tools from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral methods, and motivational interviewing to help people make practical changes. Expect clear steps, plain language, and choices that fit daily routines.

He also supports people facing issues linked to adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric concerns, chronic illness and pain, cancer, caregiving stress, first responder issues, and veteran and armed forces matters. Money worries, life purpose, men’s issues, multicultural concerns, forgiveness, and guilt are other topics he addresses.

Glenn offers sessions in English and Spanish. He treats each person with respect and sensitivity, and he works together with clients to build a plan that matches their needs and values.

How his approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, respect, and meeting people where they are; it helps when someone needs space to name what matters and to feel heard without judgment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviors and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety and manage stress. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change, which can be useful for addictions, motivation, and moving past stuck spots.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, values, and daily life. Together they adjust the plan as progress and new needs appear, so therapy stays useful and relevant.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some people prefer working from a quieter place or choosing options that use less bandwidth. Talk with him during the matching process to confirm how you want to meet and to find an arrangement that works with your routine.
