He’s really the best
Written on Mar 24, 2024 after therapy with Albert for 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, and relationship issues
Very helpful, suggested many options for improving my well-being, kind, and listens to my concerns.

He is a great therapist and gets back to fast and understands what you are telling him.

I worked with just a handful of therapists for short periods in the past, but Albert definitely tops my short list in many ways. He gives his full attention and comes across as a very caring and empathetic person. Virtual visits are a bit of a challenge for therapy, but Albert mitigates those challenges very effectively. Although we have just started with him, I feel like this is a great fit and hope to continue our sessions as long as needed

Albert is very caring and authentic. He puts the time and the effort in understanding and helping his clients.

I really like Alberts approach. He is very calm and understanding. He has a diverse tool kit of different techniques and methods and seems genuinely interested in/focused on supporting me through multiple crisis situations. With his tool kit and expertise, he can adapt/tailer therapy to my needs/goals, which I find to be effective and also uncommon, as many other therapists seem to be 1 trick ponies, or lack the skills/knowledge Albert poseses.
