Karleny Galan Alberto, LICSW
About me
My clinical experiences include working in a variety of settings such as schools, inpatient hospitals, probation departments and outpatient clinics. I am currently working with youth between the ages of 14 and 22yo and providing short term psycho therapy. Prior to this I worked as an inpatient clinician for an adult dual diagnosis psych unit. I consider myself a dedicated, hardworking person. I am passionate about teaching my clients the skills to become self sufficient and to promote self advocacy to reach their personal goals. I graduated from Simmons University in 2017 with a Master’s Degree in Social work and since then I have had the opportunity to work with diverse clients in a variety of settings. I look forward to working with you to develop a supportive relationship and to assist you in reaching your goals. Outside of work, I enjoy walking on trails, watching crime shows and spending time with friends and family.
