Thien Pham

My clients describe me as:

down to earth and friendly. I have also been described as understanding, kind, helpful and direct.

Something to know about my approach is:

I love incorporating reflections, wishes and dreams, skills building and humor. Life can be challenging at times so finding the humor in those moments can help us get through them just a tad easier.

Together, we will:

gain a deeper sense of understanding of how your environment and your unique personality formed patterns that may or may not be helpful to you. We will use Narrative Therapy to help you rewrite your preferred storyline and live a fulfilling life.

I specialize in working with people who:

come from childhoods where emotional needs were neglected/dismissed and professional success was prioritized. Being a part of this community, I know it can be challenging to navigate emotions and relationships as an adult.

I became a therapist because:

1) I wanted to help people. 2) I wanted to learn how to have healthy relationships with myself and others because I never saw it around me.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

I am pragmatic about giving clients actual tools in addition to a safe space to reflect so they can make lasting change.

More about me and my practice:

I understand the nuance and challenges that come with parents who just don't get you or your values. I operate with deep empathy and understanding for our immigrant parents and want to help my clients have sustainable relationships with theirs.
