About Hanh

Hanh Truong is a California-licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 20 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and other life challenges. Sessions are offered in English and Vietnamese and focus on practical steps people can take to feel steadier in daily life.

Hanh helps people manage relationship strain and family-related stress in blended households, including step-parenting tensions and co-parenting with an ex. He also supports those coping with grief, intimacy concerns, parenting strains, and compassion fatigue. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood issues like bipolar disorder and persistent anxiety.

His approach is straightforward and action-oriented. Conversations often include clarifying immediate problems, identifying patterns that maintain them, and practicing small behavior changes. He prefers short, concrete exercises clients can try between sessions to test what works in real life.

Across his career Hanh has worked with people facing immigration stress, adoption and foster care questions, aging and geriatric concerns, and separation or divorce. He brings two decades of experience to planning realistic, step-by-step strategies for these situations. He does not provide legal or custody advice.

People who choose him generally want clear guidance and practical tools more than abstract talk. If you are managing a blended household, merging routines, or dealing with loyalty conflicts, he offers focused support and a steady, practical style.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Hanh draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on present problems and measurable change. One common approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behavior, then experimenting with small changes to see what helps reduce anxiety or improve mood. This is useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Another approach centers on relationship patterns and communication skills. Sessions work on clearer expression of needs, managing conflict, and rebuilding trust in everyday interactions. This is often applied to intimacy concerns, blended household tensions, and co-parenting communication challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying one method for a few sessions and adjusting based on what helps most.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when needed. Talk with him after matching to confirm how sessions will be scheduled and what format will work best for your routine.
