WELCOME!

              I’m Maria Tran (she/her), an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT #128024) based in Los Angeles County, supervised by Jenny Moon, LCSW #77266. Taking the first step toward healing can be daunting, and I am committed to providing a safe, supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and valued. My therapeutic approach is warm, client-centered, and grounded in deep empathy. I believe you are the expert of your own life, and together, we can process challenges, explore your inner world, and foster personal growth.

             I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology with an Emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. My experience includes working in community mental health, supporting adults from diverse backgrounds across Los Angeles County. My approach is humanistic, with a foundation in psychodynamic and attachment-based theories. I help clients gain insight into how their upbringing and past experiences continue to shape them, empowering them to move toward healing and self-acceptance.

            As a queer cisgender woman and child of Vietnamese immigrants, I understand the complexity of holding multiple intersecting identities. I strive to create an affirming space for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC individuals, where your authenticity is honored. I am passionate about exploring the impacts of marginalization on mental health and breaking the stigma around mental well-being within the Asian American community. Having navigated my own mental health journey, I know how isolating it can feel—and I want you to know that you are not alone. Your mental health matters. You matter.

           Outside of therapy, you can find me baking sweet treats, watching anime, bouldering indoors and outdoors, or spending time with my dog Blue, and my cat Firecat.
