Christine Quynh Anh Nguyen

I believe in learning and growing alongside my clients; your therapist can only take you as far as they’ve gone themselves. My advice doesn’t come from a textbook. I’ve done the couples counseling, taken the meds, gotten the late diagnoses, had the hard talks, and set the boundaries. I’ve seen growth within myself, my own family, and all my relationships. And I’ve helped and seen others through it too. For the last 10 years, I've worked with many diverse clients from all walks of life. I’ve worked with everyone from emergency room nurses, to welders, to FAANG software engineers, to music theory students, to physics professors.

Whether it's navigating an interracial/interfaith relationship, overcoming complex trauma, managing OCD, accepting and living with neurodivergence, or establishing boundaries with loved ones with personality disorders...

You’re never alone in this.

If it helps give you hope or a better idea of what to expect or how to go about it, ask away! I know how scary it can be to walk into the unknown, so I'm not shy to offer up stories or experiences.

Healing doesn't have to always be heavy. My sessions are warm, realistic, humorous, and open-minded.

I like to take a look at your upbringing to get a really clear idea of what's going on. Culture, religion, sexuality, wealth, gender identity, medical history, and where you’ve lived all matter. For couples work, I’ll be assessing your respective personal challenges, approaches to communication, and conflict patterns as well.

Once I get a good idea, I’ll tailor my interventions and evidence-based approaches to your specific situation. I'm especially trained in using the CPT model for treating C-PTSD and ERP interventions for treating OCD. I may problem solve with you and offer practical resources if there’s tangible barriers as well.

I'm happy to meet you wherever you are at. If you come into session and already have an idea of what you want to tackle, we can take it from there. If you don't, then that's a good opportunity for us to explore the past and make sense of things that have already happened to provide better understanding of the present and future.
