Man Nguyen, Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Bilingual and Bicultural Vietnamese American Psychotherapist

About Me

My name is Man Nguyen, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 13 years of experience in the field of psychotherapy. I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, hoarding, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

My Approach

In my practice, I prioritize accepting and validating your struggles while providing psychoeducation, motivational interviewing, and strategies to facilitate changes. During our initial sessions, we will get to know each other and ensure that our styles and personalities are a good match for forming a therapeutic alliance.

What Makes My Practice Unique

My practice is unique because I am a bilingual and bicultural Vietnamese American psychotherapist. Having lived in the U.S. for over 20 years, I bring a rich cultural perspective to my work. I am passionate about helping clients from all walks of life, encompassing diverse cultures, religions, and sexual orientations. My goal is to partner with you in your therapeutic journey, empowering you to progress in therapy and eventually move forward in life without the need for continued sessions.

My Passion

I am deeply passionate about this work because I believe in the transformative power of therapy. Our partnership is centered on your growth and progress, allowing you to achieve your goals and live a fulfilling life beyond our sessions together.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is an eclectic approach that centers around you, my client. Based on your strengths and potential, we will tailor a treatment plan specifically for you to cope with life challenges and to achieve your goals. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and a Certified Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Treatment Provider.

What you can expect from our first session

This is your journey, and you will take the lead on WHAT goals you want to accomplish. I will assist you in HOW to achieve those goals by providing helpful tools, coaching, and emotional support. We will start where you are, and progress at your pace. It is absolutely necessary to take breaks and celebrate success.
