About Tram

Tram Truong is an AASW social worker who focuses on helping people move through trauma, mood difficulties and major life changes. She uses a person-centred, strengths-based style to make therapy practical and clear. Tram speaks English and Vietnamese and draws on lived experience to listen carefully and respond with respect.

Her approach is collaborative and recovery-oriented. She works with clients to set realistic goals and build on what already works for them. Sessions tend to focus on small, achievable steps that reduce distress and increase daily functioning.

Tram has three years of clinical experience supporting people with depression, bipolar mood concerns and post-traumatic stress. She also helps people coping with family problems, relationship fears such as abandonment and commitment issues, and the aftermath of sexual assault or domestic violence.

People bring practical worries to Tram, like panic attacks, feelings of isolation, low self-esteem or steady guilt and shame. Her work balances emotional support with concrete tools so clients can practise new ways of responding between sessions.

Tram aims to create an inclusive space that respects cultural background and identity. She supports multicultural concerns and encourages clients to explore life purpose, self-love and rebuilding trust after trauma.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Tram works from evidence-based techniques that focus on understanding trauma responses and strengthening coping skills. One common approach she uses involves grounding and paced breathing techniques to reduce acute panic and manage overwhelming sensations. These are taught in simple, repeatable steps that people can practise between sessions.

Another element of her work emphasises identifying personal strengths and building routines that support mood stability. This practical, strengths-based method helps people manage depression, bipolar symptoms and ongoing stress by creating realistic daily plans and small behavioural changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Tram collaborates with each person to test methods and adjust them to fit individual needs, goals and preferences. She aims to develop a plan that feels workable and relevant to everyday life rather than a one-size-fits-all model.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a focus on skill-building between meetings. It also makes regular check-ins more manageable when people are juggling work, family and other commitments.
