Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Going into therapy for the first time, I didn't expect to get much from it. I went through a couple of therapists and then I met Albert. Our personalities clicked so much that my opinion on therapy took a gigantic U turn for the better. After about 4-5 months there was a tremendous improvement with my diagnosis of generalized anxiety disorder. I look forward to my therapy sessions and don't have any plans of stopping. I don't want to risk losing such a good thing, as it is very hard to find. Alberts been in the therapy business for quite some time and his professionalism/expertise definitely shows.

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

I didn’t like my first therapist and was against therapy until I met Albert. He is actively changing my life and I honestly look forward to my sessions with him. Something I never thought I’d say on telehealth!

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.
