Hi, I’m Lia Huynh, LMFT. I serve the San Jose and Milpitas area
My life’s work is helping individuals and couples get better. I help couples restore their sense of togetherness by rediscovering their strengths as individuals, and their collective strength as a duo. And I help my individual clients to negotiate the sources of depression and anxiety while moving them gently toward feeling a deeper sense of connection with their world. This is done through counseling sessions and therapy sessions.
My approach is strengths-based and solution-focused. My office is a safe space where my clients can openly share what is happening in their lives. It is a place where they—you—can look at problems without fear, and work toward resolving them meaningfully…and permanently.
It is my job to be your guide in this healing process. The questions I ask will help you to reframe your perspective on the obstacles in your life. I know that there is rarely a single perfect solution to these complicated issues, so my goal is to move you gently towards a healthy solution that will allow you to grow and evolve. To continue, and pick up where you left off.
How I Got Into This Field
My mother was a single mom and an amazing listener. She was a bartender and used that “platform” to help many of her customers. When she later became the manager, I continued to see her during her breaks and slow periods sitting down with a customer, listening to their stories.
