ABOUT THE PROVIDER

With Heart Therapy was founded in 2022 by Lucy Han, a licensed psychotherapist (LCSW #104416) based in Southern California- Lucy has been in the field since 2012, graduating from California State University of Los Angeles with a Masters in Social Work, 2014. Lucy brings a diverse and rich clinical history to her practice from her experience in school and community mental health services, asian community mental health, adult protective services, inpatient chemical dependency and behavioral health.

Lucy is currently employed per-diem at a faith based hospital as a LCSW Care Manager since 2022. Lucy is open for her clients in private practice on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Due to her practice being limited, she is not able to take on clients who are experiencing severe symptoms such as active suicidal ideation.

Lucy's passion lies in working with individuals who are 16 years olds+, adults, older adult clients who are experiencing life transitions, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, cultural/identity issues, dysfunctional family dynamics, and emotional dysregulation.

Lucy's path to becoming a therapist was shaped by her own experiences with transition and healing. In her early adulthood, she worked as a makeup artist and eyelash artist, serving women and brides across Southern California. When an autoimmune disorder diagnoses forced a career pivot it led her to a deeper calling into mental health. This personal journey allows her to meet clients in their own moments of loss and transition with true, grounded empathy.

As a first-generation Chinese-Vietnamese American who grew up in an immigrant household, Lucy understands the unique complexities faced by children of immigrants. Having utilized therapeutic support since her teenage years, she is a firm believer in the process and finds deep joy in witnessing her clients' breakthroughs.

Lucy identifies as Christian and is proud to be a mother to her 2 boys (11 and 17-year- old) and a wife to her spouse of 13 years. She finds joy in the simple beauty of Southern California whether it's spending time at the beach, gardening, or taking care of her plants. Her self-care practice is an essential part of her life and includes local pilates and yoga classes, Peloton App classes, reading, listening to worship music and walking her Lab-Shepard rescue. She also loves recreating childhood meals, enjoying a meal with friends and family, singing and unwinding with a good K-Drama.
