About Alberto
Alberto Chang is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of psychotherapy experience. He holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker credential and practices in New Hampshire. He helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or career pressures.
He also supports people facing addiction, issues around intimacy and relationships, and parenting concerns. His approach is conversational and straightforward.
Background and approach
Alberto focuses on making sessions a place where people can talk openly without judgment. He listens for patterns in thoughts and behavior and helps clients find small, practical steps they can try between sessions. Alberto draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people test unhelpful thoughts and build new habits.
He uses Motivational Interviewing to support readiness for change, and Narrative Therapy to help people reframe difficult experiences. He also brings elements of psychodynamic and solution-focused work when they fit someone’s needs. Sessions are geared toward clear goals and real-world skills.
Alberto works collaboratively to set priorities, whether that means managing anxiety, navigating a job transition, or coping with a loss. He aims to keep language plain and to offer strategies that are easy to use outside of sessions. People who want practical tools and steady support may find his style helpful.
He encourages parents and individuals with family-related stress to describe specific struggles so they can build step-by-step plans together.

Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online
Alberto commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in online sessions. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors in daily life, which makes it easy to track and practice between video or phone sessions. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person’s own reasons for change and is useful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alberto will talk with clients about their goals and preferences, and together they will choose methods that fit those needs. That shared decision making helps shape session goals and homework that feel manageable and relevant.
Online formats allow for flexibility in how people connect. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and practicing skills in real time. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text based messaging let clients send updates, ask brief questions, or check in between sessions, which can help keep momentum between scheduled meetings.
