About Hanh

Hanh Truong is a California-licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 20 years of clinical experience. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship trouble, grief, and the aftereffects of trauma. He also supports concerns around intimacy, parenting, anger, self-esteem, and the strains that come with major life changes.

He creates a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to talk through difficult feelings. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals so progress feels tangible. Hanh listens for patterns that keep causing pain and works with each person to try different ways forward.

His background includes two decades of work in California with individuals and couples managing relationship and family conflicts. He also helps people dealing with adoption and foster care questions and the special stress those situations can bring. He speaks English and Vietnamese.

Hanh aims to make the work feel collaborative. He checks in about what is and isn’t helping, and he adjusts the approach as needed. The emphasis is on real-world strategies that fit daily life rather than abstract ideas.

People coming to him can expect straightforward conversation, careful listening, and steps to reduce overwhelm. If you want clear guidance and steady support while you navigate change, he offers an experienced presence to help you move forward.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Hanh uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and clearer relationships. One approach centers on identifying unhelpful interaction patterns and practicing new ways of relating to reduce conflict and build connection. This helps with relationship strain, communication problems, and blended family concerns.

Another common focus is short-term problem solving combined with emotion-focused work. That mix helps people manage anxiety, grief, stress, and the emotional fallout from trauma by teaching coping skills and then processing painful feelings at a manageable pace.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
