Rediscover You
You feel deeply.
You think deeply.
And maybe, you’ve been told that’s too much.
Whether you're navigating a big life change, feeling overwhelmed by the world, or trying to make sense of who you are now—I offer therapy that makes room for all of it.
If you’ve ever felt like the world wasn’t built with you in mind—too loud, too fast, too much—I see you. My virtual practice is a space where you don’t have to shrink, mask, or power through.
You get to show up fully. And we’ll work together from there.
Set loving boundaries with others
Are relationships hard for you?
Maybe you want to be closer to others—friends, family, your partner—but you keep feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or overextended. Maybe you say yes when you mean no. Or you pull away because you’re not sure how to ask for what you need.
I help people learn how to build and maintain relationships that are rooted in mutual respect, not guilt or people-pleasing.
To me, boundaries aren't walls.
They’re tools that help you say:
This matters to me.
This is okay.
This isn’t.
In therapy, we’ll explore what gets in the way of speaking up—and how to shift your relationships from survival mode to something more honest and sustainable.
My integrative therapy approach is grounded in:
🌍 Social justice and inclusivity for all identities and lived experiences
🧠 Neurodiversity-affirming and strengths-based care
💬 Culturally responsive, client-centered, and collaborative work
🫶 Non-shaming and non-judgmental presence—you don’t have to edit yourself here
🧭 Values-driven and empowering—your voice, your pace
🧘 Mind-body awareness, including polyvagal-informed and somatic techniques
💔 Trauma-informed care, including intergenerational, racial, and prolonged grief
💡 Humanistic and existential foundations—because meaning matters
🔥 Clinical expertise in compassion fatigue, vicarious trauma, and resilience, especially for helpers and healers
Who I Am (And Why It Matters)
I identify as a 1.5-generation Vietnamese/Chinese-American, neurodiverse, cisfemale, and a first-generation college student. My roots are in Southern California, but I’ve lived, worked, and traveled across 50+ countries—and carry those global, cross-cultural perspectives into every conversation.
I also carry my own lived experiences with oppression, invisibility, and cultural expectation. I don’t just understand those stories—I’ve lived them. And I use that understanding to empower others as they find their voice, set boundaries, and reclaim their worth.
"As a therapist, Dr. Diep is perceptive, intuitive, empathetic and uber competent. As a person, she is kind, caring, sympathetic and wise. She can also defuse most any difficult situation with a touch of humor when warranted. I strongly recommend Dr. Diep to anyone looking for a 'human' therapist."
