About Becca
Psychology, somatic awareness, and practical support for meaningful change.
I’m Rebecca Nguyen, a behavioral scientist, certified coach, somatic practitioner, and PhD candidate in industrial-organizational psychology. My work brings together behavioral science, nervous system awareness, and more than a decade of experience supporting people and organizations.
I created Oasis Mind Lab to offer a thoughtful space where people can better understand their patterns, strengthen their capacity, and make changes that feel sustainable in real life.
How I Came to This Work
Understanding people has always been at the center of my work.
My interest in psychology began with a desire to understand how people adapt, heal, grow, and make sense of their experiences. Over time, I learned that insight alone is not always enough. Our bodies, environments, relationships, and nervous systems also influence how we think, feel, and respond.
Somatic work gave me a more complete understanding of change. It showed me how body awareness, emotional regulation, and practical action can work alongside reflection and psychological insight.
Before founding Oasis Mind Lab, I spent more than a decade in human resources and organizational development. I supported people through workplace stress, conflict, leadership challenges, career decisions, and periods of change. Those conversations shaped the work I do today.
Oasis Mind Lab brings these parts of my background together: behavioral science, organizational psychology, coaching, somatic awareness, and genuine curiosity about the person in front of me.

What Shapes My Approach
Science and self-awareness, translated into real life.
I draw from several connected disciplines so our work can account for your thoughts, body, environment, relationships, responsibilities, and goals.
01
Behavioral Science
Understanding the patterns, environments, and experiences that influence behavior—and identifying practical opportunities for change.
02
Somatic Awareness
Paying attention to what your body and nervous system communicate alongside your thoughts, emotions, and goals.
03
Organizational Psychology
Recognizing how work, leadership, culture, identity, expectations, and systems shape individual well-being and capacity.
04
Practical Coaching
Turning awareness into realistic choices, experiments, boundaries, habits, conversations, and intentional action.
My Philosophy
You do not have to reach a breaking point before receiving support.
I believe support can be preventive, practical, and deeply human. You do not need to be in crisis or have everything figured out before beginning. Our work starts with where you are now, what matters to you, and what you would like to move toward.
