About Qiying

Qiying Zhou is a licensed clinical social worker who communicates in English and Mandarin. She builds a calm, patient space where people can talk about anxiety, depression, stress, grief, relationship strain, or problems at work. Her style is steady and practical so people can start to make small changes soon.

She uses a client-centered stance that lets each person set the pace and priorities for sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is offered to help spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors.

Background and approach

Existential therapy helps people name what matters most and make choices that fit their values. Over 22 years in New Jersey health care settings shaped her work with people facing life changes, serious illness, end-of-life concerns, and recovery from trauma or addiction. That experience includes supporting grieving people and those coping with burnout or compassion fatigue.

She also brings attention to cultural differences and prejudice when those issues affect wellbeing. Sessions may include direct problem-solving, checking how thoughts affect mood, and practical steps for better sleep, focus, or parenting routines. She speaks Mandarin for those who prefer it and aims to explain ideas in clear, everyday language.

Her approach mixes listening with actionable plans people can try between sessions. People choose her for practical guidance paired with a respectful, culturally aware approach. She encourages honest conversation about goals and works at a steady pace tailored to each person's needs.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Existential therapy helps people name what matters most and face big life questions. It focuses on values, meaning, and choice when people feel stuck or overwhelmed by changes. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person - the therapist listens closely and follows each person's goals, which helps build trust and clarity even through a screen.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals and preferences and suggest techniques that fit the person - often blending existential questions with client-centered listening or CBT tools. This collaborative process lets the plan change as needs shift.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video is useful when visual cues help the conversation. Phone can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging can support quick reflections, homework, or between-session check-ins. These options aim to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other busy schedules while keeping the therapeutic goals in focus.
