Great to meet you!

Hello, I’m Dr. Christine Nguyen, a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with a Doctorate in Social Work (DSW). With over 10 years of experience, I specialize in oncology, end-of-life issues, serious illnesses, relationships, and navigating cultural identity stressors.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach is guided by an intersectional lens that respects each client’s unique identity and experiences. I draw from cognitive-behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, and solution-focused techniques, alongside mindfulness practices, to create a balanced, supportive space for healing. This approach empowers clients to reshape their narratives and build resilience through practical strategies and self-awareness.

What you can expect from our first session

In our sessions, this will be safe and validating environment where you feel heard and supported in exploring your experiences. My approach is centered on empowerment, encouraging self-determination, and honoring your unique strengths within the context of your environment. Working with me feels collaborative and solution-focused, with a focus on helping you build resilience and move forward with confidence.
