About Sidney
UT Psychologist Dr. Sidney Dang has 14 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, relationship concerns, and related issues. He practices in Utah and works in English. He describes his approach as client-centered and strength-based while integrating evidence-based methods to build skills and reach practical goals.
Dr. Dang focuses on issues such as trauma and abuse, grief, parenting and family concerns, self-esteem, sleep problems, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. He also works with process and substance addictions, attachment and abandonment issues, multicultural and LGBT concerns, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination. Sessions tend to emphasize skill-building alongside discussion of personal history.
He trained at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology in Chicago. Across more than a decade he has worked in private practice, community mental health, residential treatment, hospitals, and schools. He has published research and written a book chapter on using culture and creative approaches in therapy.
In sessions he aims to be present and practical. Clients can expect a therapist who asks about goals, models coping skills, and practices techniques drawn from approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. He also uses attachment-based and existential ideas when they fit the client's concerns.

How his approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships affect current patterns. Online sessions can use this to track interaction styles, trust issues, and parent-child themes. Client-centered therapy centers on the client's priorities and perspective, with the therapist listening and reflecting to help people clarify goals and values.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks concerns into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In online sessions CBT tools can include practicing coping skills, tracking moods, and testing new behavior between meetings. These methods are often helpful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many habit-related concerns like process addictions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of starting work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences rather than imposing a single model. That collaborative process guides what is emphasized in subsequent meetings.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into daily life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every meeting. These practical benefits help people maintain consistency while learning new skills.
