Welcome to Grounded Therapy Space

Our Vision

For us, the term "Grounded" means the importance of having a strong and stable foundation in life. Individuals who possess this foundation are able to navigate their daily experiences with balance, mental clarity, and a focus in the present moment. Grounded children are nurtured to develop resilience, emotional intelligence, and social awareness, which equips them to grow into well-adjusted and mindful adults. Similarly, a grounded therapist is one with a diverse experience that extends beyond mere textbook knowledge, someone who is authentic and committed to ongoing personal growth in order to effectively hold and assist others. These are our overarching visions for our psychotherapy and counselling practice at Grounded Therapy Space, in Liverpool South Western Sydney.

Hi! I'm Trang Nguyen

Thank you for showing an interest! After over 20+ years of providing psychotherapy for children, adolescents, adults and parents in community health, mental health services and private practice as an accredited mental health social worker, therapist and counsellor, I am excited  to start the Grounded Therapy Space to focus on my special interest areas of mindfulness, trauma recovery, perinatal, child & adolescents mental health and attachment. 

Having provided therapy to many individuals and families in services such as Child Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), Perinatal Mental Health, Domestic Violence Counselling, Youth Health Counselling, Sexual Assault Counselling and Cancer Counselling Support - I bring a diverse experience, which allows me to connect and support many individuals in their journey towards improved mental health. Throughout my career, I am privileged to witness the transformation of many individuals and families which inspires me to continue my support to others. Personal growth, self improvement and healing are all possible, so don’t give up on yourself and your loved ones. 

 

When working with me, I bring a genuine authenticity to the therapeutic process because I’ve been on my own journeys. I believe personal growth, self improvement, and healing go beyond from just changing our thinking. It's about understanding and managing our reactivity and making a conscious choice of living life to the fullest while staying true to ourselves. Through personal application of the therapeutic approaches I've learnt, I’ve figured out how to get unstuck. So, what I offer you isn’t just textbook knowledge.​​​​

Much like the transformation of a butterfly, we're dedicated to helping you with integrating change and growth for a meaningful life.

Hi! I'm Monique 

At Grounded Therapy Space, I am here to support with some administration, social media, and practice management. I truly understand the importance of well-being and believe we thrive on a balance of physical health. Whenever I can, I love to immerse myself in nature through hiking and exploring new places, as these experiences help nourish both my mind and body.
