Born in Vietnam and raised in the United States, my career has spanned work as a classroom teacher, registered financial advisor, technical and relational manager, and EAP counselor for Fortune 500 companies. With additional training in substance abuse, employee assistance programs, and LGBTQ+ affirmative therapy, I combine practical real-world experience with compassionate, identity-affirming care.
Some of my passions include working with BIPOC and LGBTQ+ folks. I enjoy working with individuals and couples. I have additional training on Emotion Focused Therapy allowing me to connect with attachment needs and help heal through establishing a secure attachment in relationships.
Are you struggling with feelings of sadness, inadequacy, or lack of peace? Are you having difficulty coping with life stressors or just day to day circumstances?
With over 20 years as a counselor in an education setting and over 5 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and more. I recently retired from my education profession and now devote all my time to my therapy practice. My goal is to build a genuine connection and be someone you feel comfortable turning to as you move toward the life you want.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Houston. I specialize in helping adults and older adults navigate workplace stress, family challenges, and emotional wellbeing. My areas of focus include career burnout, work-life balance, anxiety, depression, intimate partner violence, divorce, caregiving stress, and cross-cultural adjustment.
I believe every person carries an inner strength that can be uncovered and nurtured. In therapy, I provide a safe, compassionate space where you can share your story, build resilience, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.
I have worked in the mental health field for over 15 years. I have worked with several different clientele including age ranges. I specialize in teenagers, LGBTQ+, women issues and young adults 18-55.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA Therapist in Richmond
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Richmond starts with looking for identity-affirming care that fits your needs. An affirming therapist may support people navigating identity, gender, relationships, family dynamics, stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for profiles that mention affirmative therapy, gender-diverse experience, WPATH training, or direct experience supporting LGBTQIA+ people. The right fit is about more than general experience — it also includes a therapist’s approach, communication style, and ability to offer care that respects your identity.
In a smaller city like Richmond, the number of local LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists may be more limited, so virtual appointments can help expand your options across Texas. You may prefer an in-person office nearby, or you may find that virtual care makes scheduling easier. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you see how they describe their work with LGBTQIA+ people and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Richmond can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and seeing your estimated cost before booking can make the process clearer. Headway helps you search for LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
