About Alfred
Dr. Alfred White, Jr. is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Louisiana with 26 years of clinical experience. He focuses on common life challenges such as stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy difficulties, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and career concerns. He also addresses grief, addiction-related issues, and questions around sexuality and identity.
Dr. White frames his work as a collaborative consultation. He asks specific questions to help people clarify what a satisfying life looks like for them. He helps identify obstacles and practical steps toward those goals. Sessions emphasize reflection, awareness, and actionable change.
His background includes a Master’s degree in Counseling from the University of New Orleans and a Doctorate in Counseling earned in 1999. He is credentialed as LPC and LMHC and holds licenses in Louisiana. His long practice has involved a wide range of everyday human concerns rather than narrow specialty work.
In sessions he mixes client-centered conversation with structured methods to notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns. That can mean working on how someone thinks about stress, testing small behavior changes, or clarifying values that guide decisions. The approach is pragmatic and focused on what the client wants to change.
People often bring questions about fatherhood, family of origin, midlife decisions, money and work stress, and feelings of guilt or shame. He also supports those navigating relationship and intimacy issues and those exploring life purpose.

How his approaches translate to online work
Dr. White uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT focuses on concrete skills such as tracking thoughts, trying new responses, and measuring what changes. Client-Centered Therapy is also part of his work and emphasizes attentive listening and reflecting what matters to the client so they can make clearer decisions.Deciding which method fits best is part of the initial collaboration. He will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they choose whether to emphasize skill practice, open-ended reflection, or a mix of both based on the client’s needs.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is limited, or remove commuting time. It can also allow for focused homework discussions and real-time review of thought records or behavior experiments to support progress.
