I have over 15 years of therapy experience, specializing in a variety of expertise including but not limited to: trauma, relationship issues, crisis interventions, anxiety, depression, coping mechanisms and many more.
Life can be difficult when we face unexpected circumstances and challenges. Help is available and change IS possible. I believe in a compassionate, genuine and traditional therapy approach - collaborating with you, meeting you where you are at and being a pro-active and supportive companion on your journey to success. By partnering with you, I treat you wholly - not only focusing just on the symptoms - and help you set and achieve all your goals. Together, each session’s intention is to create meaningful progress and change that is inline with your ultimate goal. We can do this in either Vietnamese and/or English.

Hello! I am a Clinical Psychologist, former Assistant Professor of Psychology, Clinic Director and author with 40 years experience. I offer a warm, gentle and secure place to talk about and resolve your concerns. As a trauma specialist, I have successfully used EMDR, Brainspotting and IFS parts work to gently yet rapidly resolve past trauma, depression and anxiety, and achieve peak performance. Unlike regular talk therapy, these cutting edge methods allow you to go right to the source of the issue, located in the emotional or subcortical part of the brain. Most issues and past traumas are more likely resolved in months not years.

Together we work through the issues that bind them and help them to walk a path to find happiness and a healthy life thus my company name "Life Steps." Please know this is not easy work but I take these steps with you at a pace that fits for you. My treatment is not for those who want to be in therapy "long term." I want clients to be on their way!

I support people of all ages with personal or relationship challenges, mood/anxiety disorders, neuro-developmental differences (ADHD/Autism) and provide educational counseling and advocacy.
Some people struggle for weeks, months, or even years before considering psychotherapy. And it makes sense — it's hard to confide in a stranger and can take a while to find the right fit. We want authenticity and experience in a therapist but also someone relatable and easy to talk with. When couples counseling, family therapy, or child/adolescent support is needed, the search may seem even more daunting. We need a clinician with the interpersonal skills, temperament, and adaptability to forge a meaningful connection with our partners, children, and the networks who support them.

One way that people can cope with trauma, anxiety and depression is to distract ourselves with work. While this is a functional way to survive, it can also lead to feelings of isolation, numbness, extreme stress and burnout. Future goals and dreams may feel hopeless, you may be feeling like it is getting harder and harder just to move through your day. It may become challenging to connect with others and perhaps impossible to connect with any joy. In these times of uncertainty, it makes sense that we would be reaching out for support, reevaluating what is important and talking through ideas on how to move forward.
