Thuy Nguyen is founder and director of Berkeley Community Acupuncture. She received her Masters Degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine in the year 2000 and has been evolving her practice and understanding of health, medicine and community ever since. Thuy’s style of practice can be characterized by powerful simplicity and clarity–her ability to see to the heart of the problem and to hold the space necessary for healing to emerge. Aside from (or perhaps because of) her committed work to healing, she is often recognized by her joyful laughter, her 3 beautifully devilish children, her playful wardrobe, her whimsical creative obsessions, and her passion for all things magical.
Thuy produces a monthly podcast on health and healing: You Are Medicine! having previously produced radio shows for KPFA’s About Health radio program in Berkeley, CA. Additionally, Thuy has chronicled some of her journey of healing and medical practice through the BCA Blog.
