About Albert
Albert Atemkeng is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) practicing in Minnesota. He focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and the effects of trauma and abuse. He speaks English and French and approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
Albert spends time listening first. He asks about what feels most urgent and what goals matter to the person seeking help. Together he and the client build a plan that fits their situation and pace.
How Albert works
He keeps language simple and direct so conversations are easy to follow. Over five years of work has given him experience with issues like panic attacks, social anxiety, low self-esteem, and feelings of isolation. He also helps people dealing with relationship endings, attachment wounds, guilt, and caregiver stress.
His background includes practical problem solving and support through difficult life events. Sessions focus on real-life changes and building skills people can use between meetings. Albert adjusts his approach based on what each person needs rather than using the same steps for everyone.
He encourages small, steady progress toward clearer routines, calmer thinking, and better emotional balance. Taking a first step can feel hard, and Albert aims to make that step easier. He offers a calm, steady presence while people work toward a more manageable and satisfying life.

How evidence-based methods translate to online therapy
Albert uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear steps and measurable skills. One common approach is structured skill-building that teaches specific tools to manage anxiety and mood swings, such as breathing exercises, pacing strategies, and routines to reduce overwhelm. These techniques help with panic attacks, social anxiety, and everyday stress.Another element is trauma-informed care that prioritizes safety and pacing. This means slowing down when memories or triggers are overwhelming, naming what is happening, and choosing small, manageable steps for recovery. That approach supports people coping with abuse, post-traumatic stress, and deep feelings of shame or abandonment.
Finding the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try approaches that fit their needs, and adjust plans as progress is made. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions remain practical and relevant.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, offering shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people join from wherever they are. Licensed professionals can use these options to keep momentum between meetings and make steady progress toward clear goals.
