About Phuong

Dr. Phuong "Diane" Nguyen uses attachment-based ideas at the heart of her work. She combines that with practical therapies to help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or burned out.

Diane brings 18 years of counseling experience and a calm, direct way of working to each session. She looks at how early bonds and current relationships shape feelings and behaviors. That helps when someone struggles with anxiety, depression, codependency, or intimacy-related issues.

Background and approach

She also supports people coping with career stress, grief, trauma and abuse, or major life changes. Diane earned a doctoral degree with a focus in neuropsychology in 2003, and she completed additional forensics psychology training in 2006. She uses that background to notice patterns in thinking and behavior, and to blend mind-body ideas into therapy.

She holds an LMFT license in Nevada. In sessions she draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered approaches. The work is practical: identify what matters, learn new skills, and try different ways of relating to yourself and others.

She offers help in English and Vietnamese and supports people working through issues like addiction, ADHD, sleep problems, anger, guilt and shame, or family of origin wounds. The aim is clearer goals, steadier coping, and more satisfying relationships.

Online support

Attachment-informed care and online therapy options

Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationships shape emotions and behavior, helping people understand patterns that affect intimacy and trust. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches ways to notice difficult thoughts and commit to values-based action, which is helpful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and habits and teaches concrete skills to change mood and behavior.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. Together you can adjust the mix of attachment-informed exploration, ACT exercises, or CBT skill practice as progress is made.

Online therapy can be practical and flexible. Video calls let you use visual cues and longer session work. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or fit support into a busy day. These options help people keep therapy consistent while working around work, caregiving, or travel.
