Amanda Nguyen
My work is informed by both professional training and lived experience. I am a survivor of long-term coercive control, including post-separation abuse that escalated through the misuse of legal systems and the manipulation of parent–child relationships. This survivor-informed lens, combined with clinical supervision and trauma-informed principles, allows me to offer grounded, compassionate support to parents navigating complex and often overwhelming circumstances.
