More about Alfred
- 3 years' experience
- Male
- LPC
As a licensed therapist serving clients in Texas, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping people develop deeper self-understanding, heal from past challenges, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. I have extensive experience addressing depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and family conflicts.
My therapeutic practice is deeply rooted in compassionate, culturally responsive care. I create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, develop stronger communication skills, and work through feelings of isolation, shame, and uncertainty. Drawing from evidence-based practices, I help individuals reconnect with their sense of purpose and build resilience.
I'm particularly passionate about supporting clients through life transitions, social challenges, and personal healing journeys. Whether you're struggling with self-esteem, processing trauma, or seeking greater emotional clarity, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy, respect, and professional guidance.

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.
