More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 12 State: California

Hello and Welcome to BetterHelp!

Have you been feeling stuck and hopeless in the intrusive, unwanted, repetitive and distressing thoughts, feelings, images, sensations or urges? Feeling the compulsion perform endless rituals, or engaging avoidance, mental rumination, or reassurance seeking behaviors to relieve the uncertainty? You are looking at Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).

OCD has held you hostages, has been affecting your school, work, life and relationship with others. It has prevented you from living a full life. It's time for you to stare OCD in the face, "You don't get to control my life. I will break your OC cycles at the weakest link and claim back my life!"

I provide psychoeducation about OCD and help creating exposure hierarchy. I provide coaching for you to break Obsessive Compulsive cycles (OC cycles) using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Since OCD is all about uncertainty, we will start by learning coping strategies to manage anxiety, regulate emotion, and tolerate distress before facing your fear.

You have made it this far on your own, I believe you can do even better. With knowledge, tools, skills, and practice, you will be able to face your fear, resist the compulsion, learn to live with uncertainty, and no longer let OCD control your life.

I look forward to working with you.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Great listener and I always feel better after talking to her when I’m stressed out and have anxiety.

I want to thank you for the incredible help you have offered me. When we first started, I was in a very rocky place (as you know) and your approach was exactly what I needed! I know I still have some work to do (that's what life is all about, a constant road towards self-improvement) and I can't thank you enough for all your help and support! You truly are a wonderful therapist and have equipped me with some great tools to cope with situations I encounter. I will forever treasure the work we've done together and the powerful conversations that have allowed me to start the healing process.

Man’s expertise is everything I wanted and expected from a therapist. She checks off everything I needed from therapy. It’s my first time using this app and let alone going to therapy, my first session with Man was so helpful. She really listens and pinpoints how to navigate your emotions or whatever you issue may be. She sent me worksheets that really helped me understand my problems and how to get in touch with myself. Man is very knowledgeable and helped nudge me in the right direction. She follows up on topics you talked about from previous sessions and checks in with you if you’ve been working on yourself or want to touch base on anything. I’m thankful for her service!

Man is an incredible therapist, she’s always so spot on and says it as it is. She’s very articulate and truly listens when you speak to her. I couldn’t recommend her more, I’m so happy with our sessions!

If you want to be coddled, agreed with and just hear yourself talk - go elsewhere. Man is not going to placate you, but she will give you the feedback you need to grow. I've been amazed at her ability to keep me on track, dive into the heart of things and make our time together matter. In just a few sessions I feel heard, supported and gifted with the wisdom that she imparts. She's a fantastic listener with clear insights into how to transform patterns that aren't working.

Ms. Man Nguyen has helped me find my way back to enjoy my life again. Had a moment of severe panic attacks for about a week or 2, but Ms. Man Nguyen’s talk therapy is both nurturing and knowledgeable for my situation. Ms. Man Nguyen showed me upmost respect as her client. She did not judge me at all with my mental thoughts and behavior; she is very supportive and taught how to deal with my anxieties. Truly blessed to have her as my counselor.

I have only been working with Man for a short time, but within that time frame she has helped me SO much already! I really appreciate her attention to detail, focus and intense listening, and her ability to get to the root of the issues quickly. She asks many questions that help me realize habits/realizations about myself in an encouraging, nonjudgemental way. She has a centered, present, holistic approach which I respond to very well. She is kind and easy to talk to as well - I highly recommend!

I was struggling with anxiety and anger issues. Man guided me and helped me identify the causes of my stress and anxiety. She is a great listener, a calm spirit, and I just felt very comfortable in her presence right away. In just a few sessions, I felt a huge shift in my mental health and overall well being. She gave me tools each session that helped me practice mindfulness and self care. I feel like I'm in good hands with Man and I'm grateful for the impact she's made in my life.

Overall

I am so grateful for Man, who really helped me through a difficult time with my family. I requested an Asian woman therapist because I wanted someone who could understand the cultural nuances and mother-daughter relationship. Man was a great listener, asked me to think through important questions, and gave me valuable advice that I will take with me for years to come. She also made herself available in the evenings and weekends, which was really helpful for me as a working mom. I would highly recommend working with her!

A.M.·Jun 08, 2021

Man will meet you where you are and work with you from that place. She is very compassionate, sharp, and respectful. I was nervous about being paired with a therapist, I am grateful it is Man. She writes and checks in & responds with quality messages in a timely manner.

In the short time that I have been working with Man I have gained so many personal skills to manage my emotions. She is kind, supportive and sincere. It is so great to feel understood by her on so many levels; being a woman of color, a professional, to name a couple. I look forward to progressing with Man!
