Marie Pham
Thank you for taking the first step of reaching out. I am a LCSW that has been practicing mainly with young adults, adults, and geriatrics. I believe in providing a safe space for you to share your struggles and I provide the support and tools for you to navigate them. Areas I focus on are life transitions, anxiety, mood disorders, grief/loss, chronic illness, burnout, family dynamics, and couples.
First session
For your first session, we will do a full biopsychosocial assessment and discuss about the treatment goals you would like to attain with the presenting problems. I will create a safe space for you to share with me and I will listen empathically to your issues.
Strengths
I believe in providing the safe space for you to speak as I listen to your concerns. I will also provide the emotional support needed during your therapy journey. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Dialectal Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Brief Solution Therapy.
Ideal clients
I work well with clients that are self aware, and most of the time when you are reaching out for help, you are safe aware already on your struggles. I am a strong believer in solution focused therapy and finding the strengths of the individual to help navigate your struggles. The problem does not define you as a person and at times in life, we need to be provided tools that can help you through your life journey. Thank you for trusting me to embark this journey with you.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
In this society, people may struggle with thought distortions and at times may increase the amount of stress of it on top of the issue at hand. I want to be able to allow you to write it down, process it, and provide you tools to navigate through those thoughts.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I believe therapy is meant for a season in life not necessary long term. I am very solution focused base in creating goals and solid solutions to help navigate the situation.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Each person have a set of individual parts within yourself that creates the essence of your unique human being. I believe that at times those parts are not expressed and therefore behaviors come out to help compensate for those parts that may be lacking attention. I will help explore those parts and allow you to understand them so we can navigate them to allow you to understand your behaviors and reactions to situations.
