About Michele Albano

Welcome to BetterHelp and taking an important step in meeting your needs. I would be happy to help you do this at your own pace and tailor your time to your specific needs.

My name is Michele C. Albano and I have been a social worker in New York since 1998. I have worked in varied capacities and with ages from 4 to 94.

Life can be difficult and when it is, being able to focus and concentrate on your responsibilities can be challenging. I would like to be able to assist you in meeting those challenges. It is a support that everyone should treat themselves too. I have had the opportunity to provide empathy to clients that have struggled with a wide range of challenges such as depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, self-esteem issues and many others. We can discuss what has brought you to this site and individualize a plan that works best for you. Providing a warm, compassionate, and empathetic environment to individuals is important and my goal for every client.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Please contact me at your convenience and we can discuss further how to meet your specific needs.

“She’s amazing. Highly recommend”

“Great therapist”

“Michele is honestly the best. She’s great at checking in and really listening. I especially appreciate how she gently redirects me from focusing on problems to finding solutions. She’s incredibly encouraging and empathetic”

“Michele is wonderful! Very sincere and she offers such practical advice for all of my concerns!”

“I’ve been with her for almost 5 years. I’m someone that needs to be held accountable and for folks to keep it real. Michele identified that and provided that level of care I needed. It’s been a great 5 years with her.”

“I wanted to share my amazing experience with Michele Albano. I was first connected to her several months ago. From the first session, I felt lighter and hopeful for a positive path forward. She challenged me to think about my situation in a way I hadn’t before, while also providing the support for me to feel confident in moving forward. I’m in a much better place now, but it feels good to know that if I ever need some additional help, I have Michele to help talk through things with. I am genuinely so grateful for Michele and thankful to have been connected with her. And, thank you Better Help!”

“Had our first appointment with Michele, she was able to very quickly and effectively understand the situation we have. I look forward to working with her.”

“She’s great”

“I have been seeing Michele as my therapist for almost 3 years now and she has been instrumental in helping me work through a ton of garbage. The change within is noticeable to me and those around me.”

“A professional that cares, Michele actively listens and responds thoughtfully. She helps me come to my own answers by asking thought-provoking questions. She’s been a huge help.”

“Michelle is a great listener. She comes to each session prepared with follow up questions based on our previous conversations and she encourages to me to be the best version of myself, with whatever goals I am working towards. She is also happy to just let me vent. She will listen to everything I say and offer supportive feedback. She understands the male perspective and gives good advice. I highly recommend working with her if she is available.”

“Michele is patient and helps me come to conclusions on my own. I feel like she is a great guide and points out things that I missed. She’s been a huge help in my mental health journey.”

“Michele is great. She listens to me and asks me questions that typically help me come to a conclusion. I walk away from the sessions feeling heard”
