“Dr. Zhang has been such a huge part of my personal growth over the past year that I’ve been seeing him. He is incredibly patient and kind. It’s obvious to me that he pays attention to what I’m saying and remembers things as well, which is something I haven’t experienced with therapists in the past. He knows which questions to ask to help you understand yourself better and work through ongoing conflicts as well as past trauma. He has helped me connect dots from things I experienced in the past and how they affect me today, when I wasn’t aware. He has taught me how to navigate that as well. For women who avoid male providers: I am a woman and have always avoided male providers, too, but I’m glad that I trusted Dr. Zhang because he has helped me immensely. I have always felt safe, heard, and understood during our sessions. Overall, I’m very happy to be working with him and highly recommend him. ”

Getting to know Dr. Hansong Zhang

Hello! I am Dr. Hansong Zhang, currently a licensed clinical psychologist in Texas and a professor of psychology at Texas Woman’s University. For many years in the field, the combined experience of counseling, teaching, and psychological research shaped my inquisitive, compassionate, and evidence-based therapeutic style. I specialize in treating adults and working professionals in regard to depression, anxiety, stress coping, relationship conflict, spiritual/religious and existential concerns.

What should a new client know about working with you?

When analyzing the mental and emotional process of clients, I adopt a pragmatic and time-limited psychodynamic approach, which is a comprehensive philosophy/style that combines developmental, interpersonal, object relations, and self psychology. In my opinion, counseling is a medium for clients to establish new insight and achieve new experiences. In this process, new understandings and new experiences are often complementary and reinforce each other.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

You can expect to gain new understanding about yourself and the world, and develop more effective coping strategies that help you achieve meaningful and fulfilling experiences. Your mental and emotional burden will be gradually lifted as we work through your inner barriers. My therapy environment is welcoming, empowering and adequately challenging, so you are able to gently push yourself to discover the inner strength, grit, and purpose that was always there.
