About
As a minority female with Vietnamese-American refugee parents, I understand the unique challenges of transgenerational trauma and have an authentic understanding of how we are impacted by factors stemming from grief, loss, and how we can use what we’ve learned to feel empowered once again.
I am an associate clinical social worker (ACSW) with 21 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief and loss, obsessive-compulsive disorder, ADD/ADHD, and life transitions. I also support individuals seeking healthier coping strategies and greater emotional balance as they move through challenging seasons of life.
I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of California at Los Angeles, with concentrations in gerontology and health. My clinical approach integrates dialectical behavior therapy and psychodynamic therapy, with a focus on setting realistic, attainable goals that support long-term growth and resilience.
When life feels overwhelming or difficult to manage, therapy can offer clarity, support, and direction. I provide a thoughtful, collaborative space where you can explore challenges, strengthen coping skills, and work toward meaningful change. I invite you to schedule a session when you feel ready to take the next step.

Having navigated my own experiences with anxiety and life challenges, I bring real-world understanding, warmth, and humor into therapy to create a comfortable, authentic space where clients feel supported and less alone as they work through life’s hard moments.
I am a licensed psychologist (LP) with 7 years of experience supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds and identities. I specialize in anxiety, mood concerns, attention difficulties, grief, relationship challenges, and performance-related stress. Many of the clients I work with are seeking greater self-understanding and practical tools to navigate life’s challenges while building confidence and emotional resilience in a supportive, affirming space.
I earned my doctorate in clinical psychology from National University. My work is grounded in evidence-based care and draws from cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic frameworks. I take an integrated, collaborative approach that is informed by real-life experiences and tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals.
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially during times of uncertainty or stress. I strive to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and supported as we work together to build insight and skills that extend beyond our sessions. I would be honored to walk alongside you in this process.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Yes, there are therapists who help with anger via Anger management therapy. It’s a therapeutic process that an individual goes through to manage their anger and identify its triggers. They’re given clear instructions on how to improve their angry behavior as well as a safe space for opening up about their emotions.
Once an individual’s triggers are identified, anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual process and respond to these emotions in a more positive and productive manner. The anger management therapist will provide coping strategies and ultimately help their client take back control of their anger.
The five keys to mastering anger include identifying triggers, pausing before reacting, calmly expressing emotions, discovering constructive outlets for frustration, and seeking professional assistance if necessary. Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.
The best therapy for anger management often involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior related to anger.
Anger management therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
