About Alberto

Alberto Chang is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - LCSW in New Hampshire and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker - LICSW in Massachusetts with 10 years of clinical experience. He helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, career challenges, trauma, grief and depression. He also lists work related to addictions, relationship and family concerns among his focus areas.

Alberto aims to make sessions straightforward and practical. He asks about what is most on someone’s mind and works with them to set clear goals. Sessions often include learning new ways to manage worry, practicing skills for stressful moments, and looking at patterns that keep problems stuck.

His background includes several therapeutic approaches he draws on depending on the person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) shows up in work on thoughts and behaviors. Motivational Interviewing helps when people want to make changes but feel unsure where to start. Narrative and psychodynamic ideas are used to look at how life stories affect current feelings.

Alberto describes his role as a collaborator who listens and offers practical options. He supports people through life changes such as career shifts, grief, parenting strain, and difficulties with intimacy or commitment. He also addresses issues like anger, low self-esteem, and caregiver stress.

Sessions are conducted in English and based in New Hampshire. People who want to start can expect a brief intake to clarify goals and plan next steps. The first meetings focus on what matters most and on simple steps forward.

How Alberto uses therapy approaches in remote work

Alberto draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in ways that fit remote sessions. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing different responses to reduce anxiety and stress. Motivational Interviewing focuses on clarifying what matters to someone and building motivation for change, which can help with substance use, career moves, or behavior shifts.

He also uses Narrative Therapy ideas to help people reframe troubling stories they repeat about themselves. That approach can make it easier to spot patterns that affect relationships and confidence. Choosing the right approach is part of the work together; Alberto discusses options, listens to preferences, and adjusts methods to match goals and comfort level.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current online session options before booking. Practical benefits of remote sessions can include fitting appointments around work, saving travel time, and using shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some people find remote meetings make it easier to keep therapy consistent while managing everyday responsibilities.
