Welcome to my clinical practice! My name is Steven Tran (he/him/Dr). I am a licensed clinical psychologist (PSY 36996) based out of the San Francisco Bay Area. I am a second-generation Vietnamese American queer man and child of refugees. I grew up in the Boston area, and I still miss the changing seasons—each one with its own lesson about change and growth (yes, even winter). I have specialized training in trauma, substance use disorders, and couples therapy. I utilize developmental, contextual, and trauma-informed approaches to best meet your needs and goals for a good life. When I am not working, I enjoy gardening, cooking with friends, and connecting with my cultural roots. I value community engagement and enjoy exploring community and cultural events throughout the SF Bay Area. Although my clinical work is grounded in the clinical research science, there is complexity and nuance that cannot always be captured.Therefore, I am responsive, flexible, and individually tailor evidence-based practices with you in the therapy room. I am warm and curious in understanding your lived experiences, while holding a systems lens—understanding you not in isolation, but within the relationships, culture, and context that have shaped you. My therapeutic approach can also be direct and firm, as I hope we can balance acceptance of the moment alongside steady movement towards where you want to go.
