About Alberto
Alberto Chang is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of psychotherapy experience. He holds LCSW in New Hampshire and LICSW in Massachusetts and has supported people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief. He aims to make the first step into therapy feel less daunting for those seeking change.
Alberto focuses on creating a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can name what’s bothering them. Sessions tend to be straightforward and practical.
Background and approach
He helps people sort through thoughts, emotions, and difficult decisions so they can take manageable next steps. His work often addresses career strain, relationship and intimacy difficulties, and questions about identity and belonging. He also supports people coping with addictions, bipolar mood challenges, and the fallout from major life changes.
Everyday problems like parenting stress, anger, and low self-esteem are part of his caseload as well. Alberto draws on a mix of approaches to fit each person’s needs. He uses strategies that look at thoughts and behavior, explore personal stories, and focus on clear, achievable goals.
Therapy sessions are collaborative and paced to what the client wants to work on. People who choose him usually want practical tools alongside space to talk. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make sessions more flexible.
Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Alberto uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy as common tools in his work. CBT focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and habits, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps reframe those stories to open up new possibilities.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Alberto will discuss options and adapt methods based on what matters most to the client. He checks in about goals and adjusts pacing so sessions match the person’s needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels useful. Phone sessions can be simpler when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short check-ins, homework review, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options help people fit therapy into busy days and varied routines.
