I can’t recommend Dr. Tim enough to anyone looking for a therapist! We had seen several couple therapists before finding him, and we felt so lucky to finally find someone who truly made a difference. He helped us communicate better as a couple and gave us actual tools we could use at home. We always felt genuinely listened to and left every session feeling stronger together! We would honestly love to keep seeing him regularly, even when things are good, because his guidance is valuable even when you’re not working through a specific issue. He really is one of the best!

Dr. Tim coached me through a career decision and through the application process for admission into graduate school. I felt the process was so much easier to understand and to navigate through. He answered all my questions about the college admissions process from start-to-finish. His coaching, guidance, advising, and expertise when it comes to how to find recommenders, how to write a personal statement, how to plan and prioritize certain schools for admission, and how to weave in my life experience and work experience to showcase my desire for completing a doctorate program has given me direct results. I was accepted and will start my doctoral studies in Fall of 2027. His expertise in admissions and academic coaching is top tier. He is very easy to talk to, very easy to work with, is accessible, and has a lot of insider knowledge about the college admissions process. I highly recommend him to anyone interested in higher education.

Our experience with Dr. Nguyen has been very valuable to us. Relationship counseling has helped me better understand my husband’s perspective & approach our relationship with more patience and some more confidence. Each appointment brought clarity that eased my specific relationship anxieties and helped me feel more grounded in reality. I appreciate Dr. Nguyen’s thoughtful guidance and ability to help me see things in a way that before I hadn’t really tried to considered before. I left every session with a better understanding and greater peace of mind like my husband. I highly recommend Balance Hour to anyone looking to strengthen as well as understand their relationship. 5/5

Hello, I don’t normally write reviews, but BalanceHour Therapy has really helped my wife & me work through some tough relationship issues. Especially my anxiety about being abandoned when I'm dealing with mental and physical health problems and my fear of my wife feeling more like a caregiver than a spouse. It's given us a much better way to talk about those certain things without everything turning into an argument. I've felt heard and it's helped us understand each other a lot better! Five stars from me. Oorah!

Dr.Nguyen was beyond helpful. I am a current student at SJSU pursuing my License for Professional Clinical Counseling, and was a bit disoriented with the process. Dr. Nguyen was kind enough to set up a time for a call, and helped me navigate the process. Thank you for being so open to helping the veteran community!

Transformations that inspire

Hear stroies from clients who found clarity, strength, and a way forward.

Affair that almost ended our marriage

Dr. Tim helped us after an affair that almost ended our marriage. We both thought there was no way at first, but here we are today, still 30 years married and going strong. Our family is still in tact together and our bond is stronger than ever before.

How much my stress affected my family

Many of my hours were spent traveling, managing payroll, and struggling to get office spaces filled. There were many stressful days and nights when checks didn’t come in when they should have. I finally saw how much my stress affected my family. Dr. Tim was recommended by a friend. Happy we took the chance and made the decision to invest in ourselves. Still happily married. Thank you, Dr. Tim.

Lifesaver

Tim’s college admission coaching was a lifesaver during my UC Berkeley application process. His invaluable advice and encouragement helped me achieve my dream of attending UC Berkeley. Highly recommend Tim for personalized academic coaching.
W.W. – Student at UC Berkeley

Essential

Tim’s coaching was essential during my transition from undergrad to graduate school and into the workforce. His field expertise and steadfast support guided me through the complexities of social work. Tim helped me rediscover my potential and interests after years away from school. Forever thankful for his support.

Alive again

Our daughter worked with Dr. Tim during the time when she was applying to colleges. She was very worried and stressed about her future. He helped her through this time and she got into a much better college than she thought. She tells us she feels alive again since she doesn’t feel the same anxiety anymore. We highly recommend, Dr. Tim. 
W.C. – Parent of Student at NYU

Transformative

Tim’s consulting was transformative for my entrepreneurial journey. His strategic insights and consistent support enabled me to overcome challenges and grow my business. Highly recommend Tim for entrepreneurs looking to modernize and streamline their operations.

Guidance

Dr. Tim’s guidance was essential for my change in career. I wanted to go into business for myself, but I never had the confidence to do so. I had ideas of how I wanted to do, but I never had the clarity to do it. It was through our sessions that I learned what I really wanted, and not what others wanted of me. I chose my passion over safety and I will never turn back.

V. J. – Business Owner

Game-changer

Tim’s mentorship was a game-changer for my journey into private practice. His expert guidance and unwavering support were key to my success in business. Grateful for his insights on starting a private practice and treating mental health challenges. Highly recommend Tim to any therapist beginning their private practice journey. 
F.R. – CEO

LGBTQ+ Friendly and Ally

Dr. Tim is LGBTQ+ friendly and an ally. We were on the edge of losing our child and without his help, we would have never known the cause of so much conflict and sadness. Our child worked with Dr. Tim for years and is now thriving, off to college, and living their best life being comfortable in their own skin. It is without a doubt that he saved our family.
