My name is Nguyen Bui, but you can call me Johnnie. I am a dedicated therapist with three years of experience working with adults and teens facing grief, anxiety, and trauma. My goal is to provide a supportive and compassionate space where clients can heal, grow, and become the best version of themselves. Through evidence-based approaches, I help clients build resilience, develop healthy coping strategies, and move forward with confidence.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In your first session with me, you can expect a warm and supportive environment where we begin building a strong therapeutic relationship. We will discuss what brings you to therapy, your goals, and any concerns you may have. I will ask questions to better understand your background, experiences, and current challenges while ensuring you feel heard and comfortable. Together, we will outline a personalized approach to help you heal and grow. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions and get a sense of how we will work together on your journey toward well-being.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a provider, my greatest strengths are empathy, active listening, and a client-centered approach. I create a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, validated, and understood. My ability to tailor therapy to each individual’s unique needs allows me to help clients effectively navigate grief, anxiety, and trauma. I also focus on empowering clients by providing practical tools and strategies that promote healing, resilience, and personal growth. My commitment to ongoing learning and professional development ensures that I offer evidence-based, effective treatment to support my clients' well-being.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I am best positioned to serve adults and teens who are struggling with grief, anxiety, and trauma. My clients are often individuals who feel overwhelmed by life’s challenges and are seeking a safe, supportive space to process their emotions and experiences. I work well with those who are ready to heal, grow, and develop healthier coping strategies. Whether they are dealing with loss, past trauma, or persistent anxiety, I help clients build resilience and regain a sense of control so they can move forward with confidence and clarity.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
In my practice, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change negative thought patterns that contribute to emotional distress and unwanted behaviors. Through structured sessions, we work on developing healthier coping strategies, improving problem-solving skills, and building resilience. CBT is a goal-oriented approach that empowers clients to take control of their thoughts and actions, leading to lasting positive changes in their lives.
EMDR
In my practice, I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients process and heal from past trauma and distressing experiences. This evidence-based approach uses guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation to reduce the emotional intensity of traumatic memories. By reprocessing these experiences in a safe and structured way, clients can develop healthier perspectives and relieve symptoms of anxiety, PTSD, and emotional distress. EMDR allows for deep healing, promoting resilience and emotional well-being.
Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy
In my practice, I use Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) to help clients identify and challenge irrational beliefs that contribute to emotional distress and self-defeating behaviors. Through a structured, solution-focused approach, we work on replacing unhelpful thoughts with rational, empowering perspectives. REBT helps clients develop emotional resilience, improve coping skills, and foster a healthier mindset, leading to lasting positive changes in their lives.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
In my practice, I use Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to help clients identify and build on their strengths to create meaningful change. This goal-oriented approach focuses on solutions rather than problems, encouraging clients to explore what is already working in their lives. Through structured conversations, we set clear, achievable goals and develop practical strategies to overcome challenges. SFBT empowers clients to make positive changes efficiently, fostering hope and confidence in their ability to move forward.
Trauma-Focused CBT
In my practice, I use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) to help children, adolescents, and their families process and heal from traumatic experiences. This evidence-based approach integrates cognitive-behavioral techniques with trauma-sensitive interventions to reduce distress, manage emotions, and develop healthy coping skills. Through structured sessions, we work on building resilience, improving emotional regulation, and fostering a sense of safety. TF-CBT empowers clients to move forward with confidence and emotional well-being.
