Bryan Guan

Bryan Guan

Therapist

Virtual • Washington


Hi, I’m Bryan, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with individuals who find themselves at a point where life feels overwhelming or “too much.” Whether you’re navigating a major transition, processing grief or loss, adjusting to change, or simply feeling weighed down by stress, you don’t have to face it alone. My priority is to help you feel heard, understood, and supported during this season of your life.

I view therapy as a true partnership. You are the expert on your life, and I’m here as a steady co-pilot—helping you make sense of what you’re experiencing and supporting you as you move forward at your own pace. Using a holistic, person-centered approach, we’ll explore the emotional, relational, and practical factors impacting your well-being and develop tools to help you regain balance and clarity.

Together, we’ll work toward strengthening resilience, building insight, and reconnecting with what matters most to you. If you’re ready to take the next step toward feeling more grounded and supported, I invite you to reach out and give me a call so we can begin this work together.

I've had the privilege of exploring three distinct careers—first as an opera singer, then in marketing—but it was discovering Social Work that truly aligned with my passion and purpose. After earning my Master’s in Social Work from NYU, I worked in psychiatric emergency rooms before launching my therapy practice in 2020. I specialize in blending Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients uncover internal blocks and move toward lives filled with meaning, vitality, and self-compassion.
