Dung Truong, MD

I am a dual board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner with more than 23 years of registered nursing experience and 18+ years as a nurse practitioner. My background spans primary and behavioral healthcare, academia, publishing, and professional presentations. I completed my nursing education at Milwaukee Area Technical College and Alverno College and my NP education at Concordia University Wisconsin.

I believe effective mental healthcare begins with listening. I strive to create a welcoming, respectful, and nonjudgmental environment. I take a whole-person, collaborative approach that considers your physical health, emotional well-being, lifestyle, relationships, and goals. I value open communication, education, trust, and shared decision-making.

I begin with a comprehensive assessment of your concerns, symptoms, medical and psychiatric history, medications, life circumstances, and goals. Together, we create an individualized treatment plan. When medication is appropriate, I discuss benefits, risks, side effects, alternatives, and your preferences. Follow-ups focus on progress, effectiveness, tolerability, and needed adjustments to support meaningful improvement in well-being, functioning, relationships, and quality of life.

I have practiced in inpatient and outpatient settings and as a consultant/liaison for psychiatric needs in an inpatient medical setting. I have worked as a psychiatric nurse practitioner since 2018. I earned my Doctor of Nursing degree from the University of South Alabama and am nationally board certified as a PMHNP by the ANCC.

I value a collaborative approach to treatment planning and strive to create a safe, supportive environment where each patient feels heard, respected, and valued. I believe in fostering a strong therapeutic alliance and embrace working with patients from diverse backgrounds, recognizing and respecting each person’s unique experiences and perspectives.

At the first visit, I will take a thorough history of symptoms and concerns and explore your unique history to develop a treatment plan. Plans are tailored to each individual and developed collaboratively. Subsequent visits explore progress, assess nonpharmacological therapeutic approaches, and adjust the plan as needed.

I am a dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing holistic, whole-person care for adolescents and adults. I believe mental and physical health are deeply connected, and I value a therapeutic relationship built on mutual trust, respect, unconditional positive regard, and cultural humility. Outside the clinic, I am a proud mother of two and believe food can be both medicine and joy.

I see our work as an egalitarian partnership. I will not simply hand you a prescription, nor leave you in an unstructured conversation. I combine clinical precision in medication management with a warm, reflective space for healing. I am direct and transparent, while empowering you to make informed, shared decisions about your care.

We begin with a warm, grounding welcome and first look at how you are doing overall. Then we use a collaborative, structured approach to track progress, reviewing medications and coping strategies along with sleep, energy, and mood. Depending on your needs, treatment may integrate psychopharmacology, CBT, supportive psychotherapy, and lifestyle and integrative medicine, including nutrition, sleep, stress management, and mindfulness.

I have experience providing psychiatric care in a variety of outpatient and inpatient settings. I earned my Master’s Degree as an Adult Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in 2002 and later obtained certification as an Advanced Practice Certified Addictions Recovery Nurse.

I believe treatment works best when we make decisions together. I will never force my own treatment plan. Instead, I strive to create a supportive environment where I can understand your experiences and work with you to develop a path toward healing that reflects your goals and values.

During our first appointment, I take time to thoroughly explore your history, current concerns, and where you would like to go in treatment. I carry that understanding into each follow-up visit, with you directing the goals of your care while we adjust your treatment together as your needs evolve.

In my practice, I take time to understand what you are experiencing, what has or has not worked for you before, and what you would like to get out of treatment. I want our visits to feel like a conversation where you can ask questions and tell me when something is not working for you.

I am thoughtful about medication and do not believe in making changes without a clear reason. When I recommend a medication, I explain why I am recommending it, what I hope it will help with, and what side effects or tradeoffs are worth considering. I want you to understand why we are choosing a particular treatment rather than simply being told what to take.

Therapy is also an important part of my visits. Along with discussing medications, we may spend time looking at patterns, stressors, coping strategies, and different ways of approaching difficult situations. I see medication and therapy as working together rather than as completely separate parts of treatment.

At your first visit, I will spend time getting to know you and reviewing your psychiatric and medical history, previous treatment, and current concerns. We will talk about what I think may be going on and discuss the options available to you. My goal is for you to leave with a better understanding of what we are treating and a clear plan for what comes next. From there, our visits are an ongoing conversation about what is getting better, what is still getting in the way, and whether we need to adjust our approach.

I emphasize communication, active listening, and dignity, creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where patients feel understood and empowered. I begin by understanding each patient's history, concerns, and goals, then work together with them to establish clear, practical treatment objectives, ensuring each plan is tailored to their unique needs and fosters progress and long-term wellness.

I graduated from Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine in Spartanburg, South Carolina in 2016. I completed my psychiatry residency at Henry Ford Allegiance Health in Jackson, Michigan in 2020 and a subspecialty in Forensic Psychiatry at the University of Maryland in 2021. I am dual board certified in Adult and Forensic Psychiatry and have practiced in inpatient, outpatient, community, academic, and forensic settings.

I value open communication and believe in building a warm, respectful environment where patients feel heard. I work collaboratively with patients to set clear treatment goals and tailor my approach to meet each person's unique needs. My practice emphasizes both medication management and supportive therapy to promote long-term well-being. During initial sessions, I take time to understand each patient's history, concerns, and goals, and I use a team-based approach, partnering with patients in treatment planning and decision-making to ensure care is both effective and aligned with their values.

I am a Board-Certified Psychiatrist with over three decades of experience in both outpatient and inpatient settings. I earned my medical degree from the University of Alabama School of Medicine and completed my psychiatry residency at University Hospital. I have previously served as Chief of Mental Health at a VA Hospital and have maintained a successful private practice focused on medication management and supportive therapy.

I value open communication and a collaborative approach, creating a warm, supportive environment where patients feel heard and respected. I integrate psychopharmacology and psychotherapy to help patients work toward clear treatment goals, while fostering a growth- and strengths-based perspective. I specialize in perinatal and reproductive psychiatry, supporting patients through pregnancy, postpartum, PMS, infertility, and perimenopause/menopause, as well as mood, anxiety, trauma-related, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. I begin by thoroughly understanding each patient's history, concerns, and goals, develop individualized treatment plans aligned with these goals, and regularly reassess progress to refine strategies as needed, ensuring care is responsive, personalized, and effective.

I am board-certified in psychiatry by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. I earned my medical degree from the University of Minnesota Medical School and completed residency at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center. I have extensive experience in private practice, academic leadership, and faculty roles, with expertise in treating diverse adult populations.

I also draw on a wide range of interests, from medical science to psychology and history, to enrich patient education.

I offer psychiatric medication management while also incorporating elements of cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, internal family systems, and lifestyle interventions. I believe that every patient is unique, and I work to create a supportive environment where individuals feel heard and empowered in their care. Grounded in the biopsychosocial model, I take a collaborative, patient-centered approach, partnering with patients to develop personalized treatment plans that integrate biological, psychological, and social factors, with the goal of guiding them along their path to improved wellness.

I am a Psychiatrist in Colorado practicing since 2023. I completed my MD and Adult Psychiatry Residency at the Chicago Medical School at Rosalind Franklin University and earned my BA in Neuroscience at Skidmore College. I have experience managing a broad array of complex psychiatric diagnoses in patients of diverse socioeconomic, cultural, and clinical backgrounds.

Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, biking, skiing, playing guitar, reading, and collecting board games.

I believe in building a strong therapeutic alliance grounded in empathy, respect, and curiosity. I value collaboration and open communication, ensuring that patients feel like active partners in their care. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where individuals feel understood as whole people, not defined solely by their symptoms. I also prioritize incorporating cultural background and social determinants of health, including financial stressors and systemic barriers, into treatment planning.

In my work, I begin by taking time to understand each patient's unique story, experiences, and goals. I approach care through a trauma-informed lens and with cultural sensitivity to ensure treatment feels safe, respectful, and relevant. My process integrates evidence-based approaches, including psychodynamic therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), while tailoring care plans to meet both clinical needs and patient preferences. I regularly check in on progress, invite feedback, and adjust treatment collaboratively to support an ongoing, responsive therapeutic process.

I received my BA in Biology from the University of Chicago and my medical degree from Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine. I returned to the University of Chicago to complete my psychiatry residency, where I served as Chief Resident of the outpatient psychiatry clinics and was a member of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee. I have experience treating patients across inpatient, outpatient, and consultation-liaison psychiatry settings, with additional training in treatment-resistant depression, trauma, neuropsychiatry, ECT, ketamine, geriatric psychiatry, student counseling, LGBTQ+ mental health, women's mental health, and culturally sensitive care.

I take a patient-centered approach to care, making it a priority to ensure that each patient's concerns are genuinely heard. I strive to create a culturally sensitive, non-judgmental, and safe environment where patients feel comfortable discussing difficult topics and working collaboratively toward their goals. Initial sessions focus on understanding the patient's primary concerns, history, and treatment goals. I tailor care to each individual's preferred treatment style and ensure patients are informed about their treatment plan so they know what to expect and can take an active role in their care.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist who began my career in community mental health in 2014, working as a counselor in psychiatric rehabilitation facilities. Since then, I have gained experience across inpatient hospitals, outpatient clinics, and residential treatment settings. I earned my medical degree from Rush Medical College and completed my psychiatry residency at Chicago Medical School.
