Are you feeling "overwhelm or stuck?" If so, then these are natural signs that are telling you "It's time for change." Seasons change and our lives' change. We must evolve boldly with life, as there are seasons for everything, such as a time for love or a season of disappointment, and a time for joy or a season of tears & pain. You do not need to be or feel alone in this journey of life. Please contact me to encourage and support your journey as we redefine together your life's goals, explore new horizons and/or relationships ; and to discover a sense of meaning, peace and answers to past events with healing as you embrace "the moment now," to live a more prosperous life.

Counseling for over 18 years, I have had the privilege to journey with clients to overcome their personal or professional challenges. My doctoral training in 2003 specialized in neuropsychology enhances a mind, body & spiritual approaches in treatments to help alleviate or resolve depression and/or anxiety for an enriched lifestyle and brighter future. Forensics psychology training in 2006, further fosters an astute & integrative approach for issues of abuses & neglect or self-love issues. I hope to have the opportunity to encourage you in embracing strong coping skills, healthy relationships, while sensitively, challenging any unhealthy behaviors or negative outlook to have peace & joy in seasons of life! Gratefully, Dr. D

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Dr. Nguyen is fantastic. I’ve met with her a couple times now and she listens to me intently and with purpose. I don’t feel like I’m talking to a wall.

Reviewed February 2022

I never dreamed that this type if therapy could be so healing! I could not afford walk in visits so I decided to try. It has been a learning experience as well as a healing one. I have been recommending to so many people. It is sad to think that so many are living in sadness because they dont understand their own feelings or how to really take care of themselves. This has been groundbreaking for me and I am grateful!! Thank you so much Dr D!
