About Tung

I am Dr. Tung Phan, a kind and dedicated psychiatrist specializing in both internal medicine and psychiatry. After earning my medical degree from Tufts University, I completed my residency in Internal Medicine and Psychiatry at the University of Texas Southwestern. This extensive training enables me to effectively address both physical and mental health concerns, providing my patients with thorough and balanced care. Throughout my career, I have been honored with accolades such as the Resident Teaching Award and the AΩA Resident Nominee. In addition to my clinical work, I take great pride in teaching and mentoring medical students, helping to shape the future of the healthcare field. As part of my commitment to advancing the medical profession, I contribute through research and publications, and serve as an Assistant Editor for Academic Psychiatry. My research focuses on improving healthcare access and enhancing the understanding of complex medical conditions. Outside of my medical practice, I find joy in writing, and I've been fortunate to have my work published in various outlets. Both patients and colleagues appreciate my caring and careful approach. I am always here to welcome new patients and am committed to providing the highest standard of care possible. You can reach me for inquiries or appointments by phone or at my work address in Somerville, MA. *Specialties •Mood Disorders •Bipolar Disorder •Trauma and PTSD •ADHD •OCD •Substance Use Disorders *Conditions treated •Depression •Anxiety •Bipolar disorders •Schizophrenia •PTSD •ADHD •Substance Abuse •Relationship Issues •Insomnia •Panic Attacks •Panic Disorder •OCD •Stress •Transitions *Treatment philosophy My purpose is to empower you to gain deeper insight and clarity, helping you lead a more intentional life.

How do you work with clients with trauma and PTSD?

I work with clients who have trauma and PTSD by providing a compassionate, trauma-focused approach that combines medication management and psychotherapy. I create a safe space to process trauma and use therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and emotionally focused techniques to manage symptoms. My goal is to help you regain control and improve your overall well-being.

How can you provide care remotely?

I provide care remotely through **telepsychiatry services**, offering virtual appointments without any physical office locations.
