“I started this year feeling directionless and without aim. After seeing a different therapist earlier in the year and not making progress, I was getting pretty discouraged. But within just a few weeks of working with Dr. Hansong Zhang, I started noticing real change. He goes above and beyond in remembering small details between sessions, following up on things I'd mentioned, and making me feel genuinely seen and heard. I now have structure and a forming sense of direction that's given me hope for the first time in months, and I owe a lot of that to my sessions with him. I can't thank him enough for his positive, patient, and non-judgemental therapy environment. I have felt able to open up to him in a way I have struggled to do with many others in my life. I would strongly 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.

    I had a very positive experience with this doctor during my emotional support animal evaluation and mental health check-ins. Dr. Zhang created a nonjudgmental environment where I felt safe discussing my concerns and experiences. His empathy and professional approach made it easy for me to talk about sessitive topics from my childhood.

    The experience was very welcoming and understanding. I didn't feel like I was just talking, but actually being listened to and comprehended. Comfortable, but still feeling the beginnings of change for the better.
