Tiffany Tran, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Tiffany!

As a therapist, I specialize in childhood trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, and depression. I like to help my clients understand how their past experiences shape their present while building practical skills to create meaningful change.

My focus

I work with individuals navigating everyday stressors, depression, anxiety, and interpersonal conflict. My clients often feel stuck in patterns like overthinking, self-doubt, or people-pleasing. I support those who are ready to better understand themselves and make meaningful, lasting changes.

My approach

My approach is client-centered and collaborative, creating a safe space to build trust at your pace. I use psychodynamic work to explore how past experiences shape present patterns, while integrating CBT/DBT skills for practical change. I’m supportive but also gently challenge you to help you move forward.

My communication style

My style is warm, compassionate, and direct. I create a nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, while also offering honest feedback and gentle challenge. I balance support with accountability to help you grow.

My journey to mental healthcare

Growing up as an Asian American, I saw the stigma around mental health and often had to navigate things on my own. Through research and learning, my perspective shifted, leading me to this field. I became a therapist to support others who feel similarly and to help normalize mental health care.

My goals for you

I help you set clear, realistic goals and break them into manageable steps. We combine insight into patterns with practical tools to create change. I track progress with you, offer guidance, and hold you accountable along the way.

Our first session

The first session is about getting to know each other and helping you feel comfortable. We’ll discuss what brings you in, your goals, and how I work, without pressure to share everything at once. My goal is to build trust and help you feel confident starting therapy.
