About Hanh

Hanh Truong is a California licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 20 years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and the everyday thoughts and habits that get in the way of feeling okay.

Hanh offers a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to talk through what matters most to them. He listens for patterns in thinking and behavior and helps people try new ways of responding. Sessions move at a practical pace and focus on concrete next steps between meetings.

His work covers a broad range of life challenges including parenting strain, blended family issues, adoption and foster care questions, and challenges related to immigration and aging. He also supports people facing trauma, compassion fatigue, and the long-term ups and downs of bipolar mood concerns.

Hanh draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address relationship difficulties, communication problems, guilt and shame, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. He helps people set realistic goals and build habits that support those goals.

Sessions are offered in English and Vietnamese in California. He encourages people who are ready to make a change to take a small step - completing a short questionnaire and scheduling an initial session - so they can start working toward clearer thinking and steadier daily routines.

Evidence-based approaches and how they work online

Hanh uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on thoughts, habits, and behavior. One common approach helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns, test them, and practice different responses to reduce anxiety and low mood. This approach is useful for stress, worry, and repetitive negative thoughts.

Another approach emphasizes changing everyday habits and small behavior shifts. It breaks goals into manageable steps, builds routines, and tracks progress so people can see practical improvements in daily life. This method helps with coping, self-esteem, and managing mood swings.

Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. Hanh will collaborate with each person to identify which methods match their goals, needs, and pace. He involves the person in planning next steps and checks in to adjust the approach as needed.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during shorter breaks. It can also let people use video or audio depending on what works best for focus and comfort.
