Getting to know Tram Vu
My name is Tram Vu, LCSW #76967. I have worked with clients of all ages, and for the past 13 years, I have dedicated my time to providing therapy and coaching to children and their families. I earned my Master's in Social Work from San Jose State University and hold a Bachelor's degree from San Francisco State University.
My approach
The most common theoretical approaches I use include:
Client-Centered: I walk side-by-side with you, holding you with unconditional positive regard and striving to understand your perspective.
Structural: I examine subsystems, boundaries, and hierarchies within family structures to guide interactions and promote positive change.
Family Systems Theory: This focuses on family dynamics, identifying and addressing relational patterns and conflicts contributing to individual difficulties.
Attachment Theory: I help clients strengthen secure attachment bonds between parents and children, essential for healthy development.
Solution Focused: I emphasize solutions through a positive psychology lens to inspire hope and change.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): I help children and families identify and modify negative thoughts and behaviors to promote healthier coping.
Play Therapy: Effective for children, this approach uses play to express thoughts and emotions, facilitating communication and healing.
Trauma-Informed Care: For clients with trauma, I focus on safety, trust, and healing, recognizing trauma's impact on current functioning.
Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT): I provide parents with strategies to improve relationships, enhance discipline, and promote positive behaviors.
