Gail Albers, from the start, has been so helpful. She has aided my journey healing from trauma with compassion and knowledge that is fitting my needs incredibly well. I look forward to seeing and hearing her each time. I’ve rated her “5 stars” , the tops each time I’ve filled out a survey. I’m getting healthy based on my inner abilities as well as her kindness and professionalism. I’d like to mention that I feel she’s the best therapist I’ve encountered in my 77 years. And, I’ve seen a few!
More about Gail

- LPCC
I am a licensed counselor with over 25 years experience in providing therapy. My areas of knowledge include grief and trauma therapy, treatment for anxiety and depression, and issues for LGBTQ individuals. I believe in the life transforming power of mindfulness and also employ dialectical behavioral therapy, psychodynamic process, and Rogerian theory which focuses on empathy and unconditional positive regard from the therapist to the client. My focus as a therapist is to provide a safe and compassionate space in which a person can gain self knowledge, self compassion and kindness. Each person is unique and my goal is to provide individualized treatment and support to each person I work with. I welcome the opportunity and the privilege of providing guidance and support to each person on their journey of self discovery and healing.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

It's kind of early in the process but I can feel Gail training me, like any teacher would, to be educated on things I wasn't even aware of. With this knowledge I finally feel more jn control and that's something I haven't had in a while
Gail Albers listens to my concerns. She responds to them with helpful ways I can learn and grow. I feel safe with her guidance.
I am so grateful that I found Gail. She has helped me in this challenging time of my life.
A wonderful therapist. Empathetic yet focused, Gail has been excellent at helping provide the tools for me to work through a tough stretch. I would highly recommend
Gail has a calm demeanor and a very non judgmental attitude towards any issue you bring to her. She has the ability to empathise and constructively lead you to an understanding of self and the stimuli. She has been very responsive and comforting in extremely emotional situations yet leading you to practical solutions and approaches on how to manage that next time. I would recommend her anytime!
Gail is very kind and thoughtful. A good listener and offers great advice.

Great listener. Helpful suggestions and careful consideration of patient needs.
My first session with Gail was wonderful. It was exactly what I needed in a counselor. She was non-judgemental, kind, unbiased, and listened thoroughly.
I have never attempted counselling before and I was really happy to find Gail to work with. She has a very professional and friendly approach that makes you feel very supported and listened to. She was able to identify my concerns and made me feel that she understood. I look forward to our sessions and always gain new insight and practical strategies after speaking with her.
