I have experienced
Life
at its best and at its worse; and I will bring to our sessions my unconditional regard,
life
experiences, academic knowledge and my human empathy.
Now we, as a community, are moving into a new phase of living. I want to use my training to help my clients find their peace and strength to survive these trying and stressful times. My ideal client is someone who wants to explore their “negative” stories about themselves; explore your anxiety or find clarity of what they want in romantic relationships. I am also available to meet online. As an employee at Process Therapy Institute, I have access to many compassionate and wise therapists to share their wisdom.

Not accepting new clients

Dr. Thu Dang
PhD, MA
I am not accepting new clients. Hello! I am a certified
coaching
therapist and have been practicing since 2005. I have a Ph.D. and MA in clinical psychology and I have worked at universities, community counseling centers, and Kaiser Permanente. "What is
coaching
?" you might ask.
Coaching
is the use of positive psychology to focus on your strengths (rather than deficits) to help you reach your goals. Your goals can include being better able to communicate with your loved ones or coworkers, improve working relationships with management and/or employees, conflict management, and assertiveness training.

Life Coaching Therapists
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
