The article provides a brief overview of the state of psychological science and practice in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Some universities engaged in research in the field of psychology are listed. Attention is paid to the influence of French colonization, which, despite the destruction of the traditional system, laid the foundations for the formation of the Western model of psychological education. The central place in the review is occupied by current research reflecting the specifics of mental health in Vietnamese society. The main focus is on two key issues: 1) the high prevalence of somatization of depressive disorders, confirmed by both local and international studies; 2) the effects of military conflicts, including exposure to dioxin (Agent Orange).
